2nd Annual Amber Ink Holiday Hop

 


Welcome to our second annual Amber Ink Holiday blog hop.
This year our alumni are tapping in to their inner elves for some fun and frolic.

We've made our list but you'll probably want to check it twice.
Or check it thrice. We just don't know who'll be naughty or nice.


There are 23 commenting spots to be precise
And 23 prizes to help entice.

So see those badges down below?
Roll the dice. Let elf magic flow…

Hop on Monday,
Hop on Tuesday,
Prizes on Wednesday!

One Grand Prize winner will receive an Elf on the Shelf gift set, so be sure to visit every single elfin spot. The final list will be sent to Santa, so remember… the only person you are really competing with is your elf.

Thanks for coming. Now hop on!!!

... elfin' around ...


Hugs,

CIC 139

  It's time for another Cupcake Inspiration Challenge; we are sponsored this week by: One lucky person will win:


Thanks to them for sponsoring us this week!!!

And our amazing cupcake inspiration - YUMMO:

 

I have had this litle snowman (named Snowy...ah cute eh?) for almost a year I believe and he has NEVER seen ink...that's like a sin don'tcha think!  **GASP**

Well obviously this adorable inspiration photo was the perfect time to bring him out!

I used Mojo Sketch Challenge #217 as my layout, super fun since the layout is given to you as a circle AND a square!

Nothing fancy, just some stamping, layering...AND FUN! Hope you'll grab some inspiration from the photo and join the fun, we love seeing all your amazing creations!

...red and green cupcakes - calorie free! ...


Hugs,

What's up chick?

It's the beginning of December and we had an amazing thunderstorm this morning - LOVED IT - lots of thunder, lots of lightening and LOTS of rain (um yes, I realize THOSE are the elements that make up a thunderstorm - no comments needed - HA HA) - we needed the rain, just seems odd in December.  :D  No snow yet; we'll see what the temps are when we head out in a bit.

The thunderstorm reminded me of Spring, so I made a Spring card - just skipping through the seasons here!  :D

This cute little chick tower and sentiment are from Hambo Stamps, love the "sketchiness" of the image - no hard lines - very soft and pretty IMHO. I used the layout from The Sweet Stop (#137). Cute layout to go right along with a cute image!

Papers are from My Mind's Eye and Papertreyink, I added some little sparkle gems to the sentiment and some scrunched polka dot blue sheen ribbon - LOVE! I also decorated the inside of the envelope to match some of the paper I used on the card, seriously, who wouldn't love all that matchy-match? LOL

Thanks for popping in today; hope you have a GREAT weekend!


Hugs,
