Livestrong Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the Livestrong Blog Hop. If you just came from Monica's blog than you are in the right spot, if not, the beginning of the hop starts with Maria.

Our projects for today are to focus on hope and encouragement. I wanted to make some small note cards that were simple, bright and cheerful for my project. I hope you like them. All of them were embossed with clear embossing powder.

This first one uses Follow Your Dreams stamp set by My Creative Time and the Loopy Loo Polka background stamp by Market Street Stamps.


This one uses Turn That Frown Upside Down by My Creative Time and Paisley by Market Street Stamps.


This one is My Favorite Sayings by My Creative Time and Sweet Lace by Market Street Stamps


This one uses Pain Pain Go Away! by My Creative Time and Punched Tin by Market Street Stamps.


Here is a picture of all of them together.


I have a small giveaway of Circle dies for your Cuttlebug (pictured below). All you have to do to have a chance to win is leave a comment on this post by Monday morning and have a US or Canada mailing address. I will pick a random winner on Monday, May 9th.



Your next stop on the hop is to Martha. Click HERE to go to Martha's blog.

I wanted to mention that Emma over at My Creative Time has just released a special stamp set that coincides perfectly with this hop. I wanted to post a picture of it and a link to her blog. By purchasing this stamp set, you are partnering with "My Creative Time" to help stamp out breast cancer. For each set that is purchased, My Creative Time will donate $2 to Susan G. Komen for the cure! Click HERE to check out this stamp set.


I'm glad you could stop by. Have a great day.

  6. Glora your cards are just gorgeous. I love all the colors you used. Those background stamps are just gorgeous! The sentiments are perfect too. I am thinking that you embossed all those. Can you let me know what embossing powder you are using, because it is perfect every time.

    Hugs,
    Stephanie
