Blog Hopping JustRite Style with Stamper's Dream and the JustRite Team!


Hi everyone! Welcome to the start of a new week and a Stamper's Dream/ JustRite Stampers blog hop! You heard me right, both Stamper's Dream and JustRite Stampers have teamed up and brought you this phenomenal hop of inspiration! If you have arrived here from Eva's Blog then you are in the right place, if not then please start your journey back at the JustRite Inspiration blog.

For my card today, I scouted blog land for a sketch to use on the hop. I went with this week's Card Patterns sketch and stamped the sentiment from the Song in My Heart Oval JustRite set in the corner before I started to sponge on my colours. I then sponged on my various Stampin' Up! inks and then used my Martha Stewart leaf punch to make a reverse mask to create the sponged leaves. I finished off the main image with some of Martha's butterfly punches to create the butterflies out of vellum.




Since I'm the last person that you get to visit I will remind you to leave everyone some love to win a chance at some blog candy! There are 3 different sets of hidden goodies among the participants and just to get you salivating, this is just one of the prizes involved ;)




The commenting will remain open until 8pm CST - Tuesday March 22cnd. The 3 winners will be announced on both the Stamper's Dream blog and the JustRite blog on Wednesday March 23rd. Here is what you have a chance to win:

  • 4 JustRite Stamp sets of your choice
  • A $50 Prize package from Stamper's Dream (pictured above)
  • A $50 Shopping spree to the JustRite store.

Good luck to you all and thank you so much for coming to visit me :D
