The Stamping Boutique BLOP HOP

Hi, I am so sorry this is late, I am without internet AND my laptop keyboard has given up the ghost, so I've pinched my son's laptop for a wee while and gone in search of wifi!

Today sees the start of The Stamping Boutique Blog Hop, which is running from 11th til 13th November.

There is a whole host of DT members taking part, and there are prizes to be won along the way! Here's a list of the participants and their blogs...
TSB Challenge Blog-http://thestampingboutiquechallengeblog.blogspot.com/ <---- Final Stop
You should have arrived here from Julia's blog, and from here you should be off to Rene's blog but the list should set you right if not!
The best bit!.....Make sure to visit each design team member's blog and leave a comment as each one of us will be giving away one TSB image! AND....1 random person (who comments on all DT blogs and leaves a final comment on The Stamping Boutique blog) will be selected to win the entire set of our newest line of images called the Smoochies.
Oops, nearly forgot, here's my card!


I used the wonderful Happy, Happy Snowman image, coloured with Promarkers and accented with chalks and Glamour Dust.


I then used my lacey circles nestie to cut it out. My DPs are Dovecraft Christmas ones from a few years back. I kept it fairly simple, just added a computer sentiment 'You're So COOL!' a die-cut snowflake and some funky fibres to finish.

 

Oh yes, I also added one of my 'posh pins' too!


I do hope you will join us on our hop....I can't wait to see who wins the digi image from my blog!

Ali!! I feel your misery... I put up a cell phone pic and YUK... it just doesn't do the Smoochies justice!
Hope all is restored in your world soon... I love the "Happy Happy Snowman" and based on your description, I can't wait to see it, especially the "funky fibers" (-:
