World Card Making Day HOP- 2 giveaways!!!!

Hello, friends:}


If you came from Patricia Folchert's blog, you are in the right place-- if you would like to start from the beginning of the hop, please click HERE or go to the Paper Crafts blog.

Well....I can finally shout it from the ROOF TOPS! I was a WINNER!!! My card was one of the winners picked for the Love category for the World Card Making Day challenge with Paper Crafts! I'm so excited. This was a complete surprise, and I still can't believe it's true!! I pinch myself all the time! You can read more about this win on pages 11-12 in the PC magazine, and my card is on page 80. 

And today the WCMD winners are having a hop! We wanted to share some of our goodies with you! And the good news is that I'm sharing TWO projects and TWO giveaways!  

My friend, Linda Dreiling, is sharing my blog today. She was a winner in the Birthday category!! You can see her project on page ##. She has created another birthday card to share today. Here is what she had to say about the special techniques she used on this card: Cut flower; leaves and small butterflies  from Graphic 45 Botanical paper and glue down with Studio multi medium to the Clearly for Art Blackout.  When dry, once again cut out.  Holding with tweezers one item at a time hit the back with heat from a heat gun, you just have to heat a little and then form your butterflies wings upwards and set a side to cool. Heat the flower and form the petals as you desire and then set aside to cool. I love using this medium as it holds its shape and I love 3d on cards.  Emboss Happy Birthday on Gold punch out from Botanical paper;I put the foam tape behind the Happy Birthday insert and again on the bottom leaves of the flower. After the paper is on the Gift Card tin cutout and form more small butterflies then I tied various ribbons to the handle to make it stand up.

 
Supplies: Patterned paper from Graphic 45, Botanical and Domestic Goddess papers; Clearly for Art Blackout modeling film by Studio 490; Stamps: Happy Birthday from Stampin UP and swirl Misc brand from Michaels; Embossing Powder: Stampin Up; Ink by Tim Holtz Distress Black and Dye Black by Making Memories; Pearls from Bo Bunny; Scotch Foam tape; Adhesive by Studio multi medium matte; Scotch glue and Extreme Tac by Glue Glider; Small Tin with handle from Oriental Trading; Ribbon; May arts.

And for my creation....I wanted to create another card for the category that I won {original card to the left}. I also wanted to use a similar image. So I made a love card using the camera image from the Paper Smooches Perpetual Bliss stamp set. I also used some hearts from the Smoocheroos set. The papers are from the Paper Issues store. I used some film strip ribbon and made it look like it was rolling out of the camera. My friend, Ashley, helped me with this sentiment--SOOOOOOOO perfect! LOVE LOVE LOVE this card! 

I tried to get a good pic of the film strip ribbon--sorry this pic is dark.

Now for the GIVEAWAYS!!!! Linda and I are both giving away some prizes. We are each giving away a package of goodies....and we just found out from Holly over at Paper Crafts that we can giveaway a magazine too!!! HOOOOORAY!
