FOR SALE...

Hey friends.

I have some Cornish Heritage Farms stamp sets that are new in package...uncut red rubber to SELL. ALL stamp sets are from my former "Kim Hughes Collection"

I hear these puppies are in high demand...so I think the fairest way to handle this is to find out who is interested...I will put the name in a hat (for each set) and choose someone to "win" the rights to purchase that stamp set.

Leave a comment...tell me which set(s) you are interested in and include your first and last name. You can list more than one set.

You have until midnight tonight to comment. I will post the names here tomorrow.

International designers can buy the stamps, actual shipping will be calculated if you are the person who gets to purchase the set.

I have TEN stamp sets total to sell...I am just showing the back of the set so that you can see the (uncut) stamp set.

Hero Arts + Paper Smooches Challenge: Day 3

Welcome friends to the third day of our super fun challenge!

After your stop here, please stop over to Jennifer McGuire's blog to see what she created with the same two stamp sets. I am sure she created something wonderful :) (I can't wait to see)

These are the stamp sets that we have chosen for today. Paper Smooches Pretty Phrases and Lauderdale Floral by Hero Arts

...and here's my card

I stamped the background with the cool flower image to create patterned paper. The butterfly is stamped onto the base and stamped again and cut out and used as an accent. You may be able to tell that it pops! I decided to tear my base card stock to add more texture.

I think I might have mentioned a giveaway that would be posted today...well, we decided to post the details on Friday. You will have all weekend to coment and winners will be chosen and posted on Monday.

Tomorrow I'd like you to join me over at the Paper Smooches blog for my challenge card

September Zva Blog Hop Winners announced

We'd like to congratulate the FIVE June Zva Blog Hop winners! Their names will be found on the following blogs:

Nancy Doren

Windy Robinson

Camilla Ekman

Jillian Deiling Cassity

Susan Lui

One winner from each of the 5 blogs will receive a Zva prize package worth $30.00. Congrats winners!

I'd like to take this time to announce that I have resigned from being the Zva Creative DT Coordinator. I have enjoyed every inch of the 2.5 years that I worked with this fabulous company and I truly wish them continued success. It was such a difficult decision to make, but I feel that I need to give as much of my attention to Paper Smooches as I possibly can. It's a BIG job for one person, but boy do I LOVE it! :)

This will be my last Zva blog hop :(

Windy Robinson is taking my place...she announced the new Zva DT call HERE.

Thank you Zva for being a dream to work with. Thank you past and present designers...it has been an absolute pleasure to work with you. What a talented and professional group of woman...it's hard to beleive that there wasn't one single day of drama in over two and a half years - wow! I will miss you.

Hero Arts + Paper Smooches Challenge: Day 2

I am thrilled that you are excited about our colaboration this week :)

After your stop here, please stop over to Jennifer McGuire's blog to see what she created with the same two stamp sets

Today we used Paper Smooches Swanky Snowdudes and Hero Arts Get Merry stamp sets

I love the big font size on this Hero Arts stamp set! The tree is totally whimsical and the sentiments are perfect. It totally compliments our dudes.

I decided to create a softer card today, so I inked the edges with Clearsnap chalk ink. I used tiny scalloped edged scissors to add interest to my main paper panel. The snowflakes are stamped in 2 different shades of brown and I thought that twine bows might finish off the trees nicely.

I will be back tomorrow, sharing another PS + HA card. Jennifer and I have a giveaway planned for you all...woohooo

Zva Creative September DT Blog Hop!

Zva Creative and our talented Design Team welcomes you to join us this month for a blog hop that we feel is always extra special! We thought it would be more fun to add even more chances to win our blog hop prize! See details below.

The summer trade show was in July, which means brand new Zva Creative products. So please keep an eye out for them at your local craft stores.

As you know, Zva offers so many beautiful color groupings for pearls, flowers and crystals. We want to make sure that they shine bright for you, so each designer was asked to share a creation using a specific color or color combination on their blog hop project.

The Blog Hop begins here. I will have the complete list of all blogs that are participating in case there is a glitch along the way. If you would like to play along, just follow along the blog path. I am linking to one of the Zva designers and that designer is linking to the next and so on. Be prepared to be inspired along the way. Hidden on FIVE of the blogs is a Zva Creative prize package...YAY! Winners will be randomly chosen after the hop is over, so it's important to leave a comment on as many blogs as you can along the way.

The Blog Hop starts today, September 26th and runs through midnight US Eastern Standard Time on Tuesday, September 27h and the 5 winners will be announced on Wednesday, September 28th on each of the five winning blogs. The full list will be found on Kim Hughes‘s blog as well (linked above). We will do our best to notify each winner, but it's best if you can pop in to all of the blogs once again on Wednesday...plus, you never know what kind of inspirational creation that you may find there. All you need to do is leave a comment on this Zva Blog Hop post...you do not need to leave a comment on each and every designer's blog post to qualify. The more times you leave a comment along the blog hop path though, the more chances you will have to be one of the lucky winners.

To increase your chances of winning:

* Comment to let us know that you posted on your Facebook page about our hop (link to any of the blog hop posts)

* Comment to let us know that you "tweeted" about our hop (link to any of the blog hop posts)

* Comment to let us know that you asked your local store to carry Zva creative products. If they already do, that's fantastic, maybe you can suggest other products that they don't carry

Sooo, you have FOUR chances on each blog to win one of our FIVE prizes! That's technically OVER 50 chances :)

The blog hop begins here: Kim Hughes

Your next stop is here: Nancy Doren

Thank you SO MUCH for joining us

Hero Arts + Paper Smooches Challenge

I have another fun project planned for you today...

I am excited to be partnering up with Jennifer McGuire and Hero Arts this week (Monday-Friday). I have always LOVED Hero Arts stamps (swoon)...and they work beautifully with my stamps! Jennifer and I are creating with the same stamp sets and will be offering up some blog candy on Friday. I will be back tomorrow with another Paper Smooches/Hero Arts card. Jennifer will have some Paper Smooches stamps to give away and I will have some Hero arts stamps to give away...wooohoooo

Today we used stamps from Halloweenies and Happy Halloween

...and here's my card :)

I paper pieced my witch and cut a broom from Core'dinations card stock. I have no idea how that witch is keeping her balance flying around like that...but it looks like FUN!!

Please take a moment to pop on over to Jennifer's blog to see what she has created with these 2 stamp sets. I will be back tomorrow
