I had the chance this week to play along with the High Hopes Design team as they celebrate their 100th challenge this week. And they are definitely celebrating! (You're going to want to read below because there are some huge prizes being given away!) To celebrate the 100th challenge, High Hopes is having a Blog Hop complete with lots of prizes! As you hop from stop to stop, make sure to leave comments because there is candy along the way.
The 1st prize is $100 retail value unmounted or cling mounted stamps High Hopes Stamps!!! WOW!!!
The 2nd prize is $50 retail value unmounted or cling mounted stamps High Hopes stamps!!!
And the 3rd and 4th prizes will each receive $25 retail value unmounted or cling mounted stamps High Hopes stamps!!
That's a lot of stamps at stake!!
In order to have a chance to win, you must leave a comment on each blog along the hop!! The hop will remain open 12:00pm (noon) EST Monday, Jan 17th. The winners will be announced next Tuesday.
You may also notice that we have a few special guests joining us for this challenge!! A few of our Original Divas have returned for this special event. Make sure to say "hi"!!
The challenge this week is "Anything Goes." I pulled out this adorable Group Hug Bears image for my card. It's such a cute image! I colored my image with copic markers and cut it out with a circle nestability die. While my image was still in the die, I sponged some yellow ink around the edges. I paired my image with some patterned papers from October Afternon (Thrift Shop and Cherry Hill paper pads). I added lots of stiching and some crocheted flowers and buttons.
You should have arrived from Michelle's blog. If you didn't come from there, you will want to start at the top at the High Hopes Blog so you don't miss any stops along the way (remember those huge prizes I mentioned *wink*). Thanks so much for letting me hop along with you, ladies! It was so much fun catching up with everyone!
From here you will hop to Nikki's blog. Happy Hopping!!
Niki
