DIE-VERSIONS + GREAT IMPRESSIONS: a blog hop

hello crafty peeps!

and WELCOME to the DIE-VERSIONS and GREAT IMPRESSIONS designers' blog hop!


we've got both talented teams hopping today with a chance to win prizes from both of these craft suppliers! 

our theme for this hop is "TIS THE SEASON" so get ready to see some beautiful holiday creations! 

you should have arrived here from kendra sand's blog and your next stop is katy drogos's blog. if you haven't and would like to hop with us, please go back to the DIE-VERSIONS' blog to see the entire hop list and to start at the beginning for the maximum chances to win! 

there will be two lucky winners – DIE-VERSIONS and GREAT IMPRESSIONS are each giving away one $25 GIFT CARD! 

PLEASE make sure that you leave a comment on every post in the hop, too. we all like to get feedback, right?! :-) plus - the more you comment, the more chances you have of winning! 

and here is what i came up with:


to create my card i used dark blue and white cardstock, and various pattern papers. i punched the edges of some of my layers and adhered them with mounting tape to the card base.

for the cute train i used the GREAT IMPRESSIONS' train delivery rubber stamp. i stamped the image on white pearly cardstock, fussy cut it and coloured only the heart red.


i cut the REMEMBER frame using DIE-VERSIONS' sweet frame "REMEMBER" die and dark blue cardstock. to give more glimmer and galm to my card, i added glitter glue to the frame.


i hope i managed to inpire you today!

THANKS for stopping by! 

we hope you're inspired all along the way, and that you grab all the goodies used from the DIE-VERSIONS and GREAT IMPRESSIONS stores! 

have FUN hopping!

 hugs 'n smiles,
