Crafty Boots Blog Hop!

Good morning - and what a very exciting morning it is too. I'm taking part in my 1st ever blog hop! Read on to found out what you have to do to take part.

The theme at Crafty Boots Challenges this fortnight is ‘Anything Goes’. You can join in the challenge as normal but there are 12 extra chances for you to win a prize by joining the first ever Crafty Boots blog hop!

If you are joining in the hop you should have got here from Tracie’s blog. If you haven’t blog hopped before it is really simple, just start at the Crafty Boots Challenge blog and hop through the design team blogs in the order set out on that page. Each of the design team members has a word or two for you to collect which will reveal a message at the end. Once you have collected that message email it to bloghop@craftyboots.co.uk to be entered into the draw to win the prize of three digis of your choice from Hope Jacare Doodles. You must also become a follower of all the design team’s blogs (and Claire’s) to be eligible to win the prizes.

Right, here's my DT card using one of the fantastic digital stamps from Hope Jacare - Home is where the heart is.

As you can see I've kept the card simple, using Centura Pearl card for the base, a few card candies and a ribbon.  The actual digital stamp I've printed out 3 times and coloured using neutral tones from my Promarker skin tones/accents/browns range.  I added a touch of sparkle using my Wink of Stella pens.  One of the houses has a different door which has been sparkled and had Glossy accents added. I then cut up the extra layers to create my own decoupage to create a 3d effect.  The finished piece was matted and layered onto neutral core-dinations card and centralised on the base.

That's it, a simple, but effective card I reckon.  Isn't the digital stamp gorgeous?

Don’t forget that myself and each of the design team members has a prize of candy up for grabs, this will include a sample pack of the fantastic new Crafty Boots Deluxe card along with a few other goodies. Be sure to leave a comment on each of our blogs and follow us to be in with a chance of winning our candy!

My words for the secret message are:

NEW YEAR

This is the final stop of the blog hop so make sure you email the message you have collected to bloghop@craftyboots.co.uk.

The deadline for both the Anything Goes challenge, and the blog hop (and candy) is Sunday 11^th December at 12 Noon (UK time).

Good luck and take care,
