Pink By Design Blog Hop Release April 2012

Hi Everyone!

Welcome to the Pink by Design April Release Blog Hop!  We are glad you are joining us to see all of the fun new stamps that are coming out!  If you arrived here from Anna's blog you are in the right spot-- if not, make sure you start at Pink By Design so you don't miss a single thing!  Besides all the yummy projects, there is also some YUMMY blog candy- that you don't want to miss!

The grand prize is a Big Shot!  The Big Shot is PERFECT for the new Pink by Design Dies in this release!

All you have to do to be entered for the Big Shot is leave comments on any blogs on the hop.  For each comment, you will get an entry.  You can also share the Stamp Release on your own blog, Facebook or Pinterest- and leave a comment telling us you did so.  You can really rack up the entries this way! :)

I did 2 projects for today (because I'm an over achiever and a suck-up!).
My first card shows off the new "Days Like This" set (my new favorite!) and the new "Chevron" background stamp (another new favorite).


For my second card, I used the "Chevron" background again and the sentiment is from "Say it Sweet" (this set is not new- but is still awesome!).
The candy image was cut on my Silhouette Cameo and colored with my Copics.
The Crinkle Ribbon and Button are from 3 Girl JAM!

I'm offering some Blog Candy today too!  One lucky follower will win the Feb. Stamp of the Month set "Rain or Shine".

[I Love this Set]
Here's a quick card I made using one of the sentiments from this set.

Your next Hop stop is Gloria!

Thanks for stopping by!

  47. Julie, I just love all your cards, but there is something about the first one that's nostalgic. The name of the Stampset is perfect. It kind of reminds me of an era gone by...I know corny...lol. I think you get it. It's definitely somehting you could give a guy too. Good job with the Copics too on the other card.
    Have a great weekend!
