Quietfire Design Blog Hop!

qfbloghop Good Morning,

My card today is for the Quietfire Design Blog Hop.  If you haven’t heard about it yet, you can read the directions below on how to enter the daily contests and grand prize draw!  You won’t want to miss out!

I used one of Suzanne’s new Christmas stamps, Snowflakes are the fairydust of winter.  Oh, I love it!!!  Of course I had to add a whack of snowflakes.  Even though I love winter, I am glad that we are having such beautiful weather here in Nova Scotia!  The snowflakes will fall soon enough!

Please leave your comments in the comments section to enter to win a grab bag of Quietfire Design Rubber Stamps. A name will be chosen randomly from the list of comments from this blog entry.  The name of the winner will be posted on this blog tomorrow.  Then hop on over to the next blog on the list tomorrow and enter to win more rubber.

The winner must contact Suzanne at suzanne@quietfire.com to claim their prize.


Here is the list of those participating:

Monday, Nov 16th - Yogi Grunwald

Tuesday, Nov 17th - Kristy Christopherson

Wednesday, Nov 18th - Kim Prince

Thursday, Nov 19th - Deborah March

Friday, Nov 20th - Suzanne Cannon

Saturday, Nov 21st - Wanda Hentges

Sunday, Nov 22nd - Becca Feeken

Monday, Nov 23rd - Monica Black

NOTE: You need to take note of all the rubber stamps used on each DT's blog.  At the end of the blog hop, go back to Suzanne’s blog and list all the stamps used this week on everyone’s card and enter to win the GRAND PRIZE!!

Good Luck everyone, and thank you for stopping by today!

Edited to add:  A few people have asked questions about my card.  The large snowflake is done with the Cuttlebug combo, there is a die and an embossing folder.  The icicle border is a Martha Stewart border punch.  The patterned paper is from the Bo Bunny Christmas Line, and I believe it’s the special glitter line.  If you have anymore questions, please feel free to ask, I will answer asap.  Thank you so much for all the kind words!

I look at many sites to get inspiration for my main passion which is quilting. Using stamps and paint is part of the fun. Thanks for your images.

Laura M said...

Hi Kim
I realized I was supposed to comment on the stamps. I love the snowflake and would love to incorporate it into a quilt. The poinsettia would be fun made dimensionally for a wall hanging quilt. I love the details of the stamps!

Anonymous said...

Lovely card, the colours are perfect for that wintery feel to it. And just the right amount of glitz to put a cool snow - like chill on it. This is fun getting to visit blogs I don't normally see.
