Blog Hop and Competition

It's Mo's SIX MONTH anniversary and we reached the 1000 member milestone on PCP last week -- so Bella and Bronte called for a celebration! Blog Hop with both DTs! Each DT member will be giving "their" stamp to a random person who leaves a comment. Plus, visitors can gather "clues" at each stop to spell a phrase and be entered into the big contest to win one of many prizes

Let the party begin.

I think this is the cutest Gal on the Block.

Follow along to teach of the DT blogs look at the wonderful creations they have made and leave them a comment as you could also win the digi stamp that was used in their creation.

Then search for a letter within the posting, collect each letter and then make a phrase with the letters you collect and email the phrase to party@mosdigitalpencil.com with the phrase in the SUBJECT LINE

The deadline for entering for the prizes and emailing Mo the final phrase is this Friday at midnight EST!

I hope I haven't made finding my letter to hard for you lol!

Now get hopping over to Elaine Hughes for another letter and a peek and a wonderful creation.

Don't forget to leave me a comment and I will draw a winner for the Sophie Digital Stamp I have used, deadline Friday 19th midnight GMT

Distressed Blossom

Getting a bit inky, I love doing that, I had to set to as soon as I got home from Create and Craft, it seems that both myself and Leonie Pujol enjoy nothing better than getting our fingers inky.

I used the Friends till the End stamp set by Papertrey Ink and using the blossom I stamped creamy caramel ink all over the Kraft base card then distressed the edges of the card in the same ink.

I stamped the main focal blossom onto kraft card with Momento ink and used Copics to colour the image, then I added glossy accents to the centre and added little gems and glass glitter to make it pop. I cut this out when dry and tied a ribbon around the card in a bow and added the blossom on top with foam pads.

The sentiment was stamped and cut out with the Stampin up word slot punch.
