"Welcome to our "Farewell Blog Hop"! We are doing this hop to HONOR
& send off our "Current design team" in a fun way. Since all of us
have become friends, we are doing our LAST blog hop together making it a
"Friendship" theme. I hope all of "YOU" thoroughly enjoyed this team
as much as we did! Since this is a special day, there will be a giveaway
at EACH STOP! Yep, that means we are having a total of 19 giveaways!
All you have to do is leave your comments in order to qualify! Emma will
announce all the winners on Monday, 12/23//2013 on here blog! Here is what I am giving away today:
I have had the year of my life, working for Miss Emma with this awesome Design Team! It has truly been an honor, and I thank Emma from the bottom of my heart for this opportunity. And I thank you guys, for all the wonderful comments, for supporting and following my blog. It's been so much fun sharing my ideas with you, and getting ideas as well. This is an amazing group of women! Such talent!
Anyway....on to my last post...a card. Our theme was friendship....appropriate as this team really has become great friends. Friendships that will last long beyond the DT term. So, here's my card for you today.
I used the 4x6 journal die to cut the plaid paper mat. Then, I cut the red piece a 1/4 inch smaller used my atg to adhere. Then I came up with what I wanted it to say. I used the label font stamp set and stamped each letter in green ink. I cut each letter out and used foam dimensionals to adhere. I used my Wink of Stella glitter brush and went over each letter to get that great glitter. Love that thing...use it a lot!!!
My gingerbread banner represents each member of our team. Hand in hand, lol. I created a mat layer and offset it just a bit to show better. I also added it with some dimensionals. I have some glaze pens, and used the green and the clear one to add a bit of shine to the eyes, mouth, and buttons. It just needed something!
I chose my stamp and used white embossing powder to make it look better with the white on the gingerbread men. I mounted it on a bit of green cardstock.
For my finishing touches, I added white gel pen stitching all the way around, and tied some twine. Actually, the stitching was done first thing so it could dry while I worked on the other elements.
I hope you like my card. Simple, but yet sends my feelings perfectly. I hope all of you guys who have followed me, will continue! I have loved reading all you kind words, Not going anywhere, I'll still be crafting, and I'll still post links of FB so you can see what I'm up to. I wish all of you the Merriest of Christmases and the Happiest of New Years!
Here's what I used.
