There She Goes Preview | Day THREE


Welcome to the last day of the There She Goes Blog Hop Challenges!  You should start your hop at the There She Goes blog, where all the details of the challenge are, and if you've come my way from Jodi's darling blog, then you're at the right place.

There’s no place like GNOME! Yep…you guessed it! Torico has created a fabulously whimsical set featuring some outstanding gnome images and coordinating sentiments. Clean designs and adorable images characterize Torico’s style, and this set is no different!

My Little Friend is a 6x8 stamp set that includes a total of 31 stamps and will sell for $24.

When I first saw this set, I was laughing so hard - all the sentiments are hysterical!  Plus the little gnomes are absolutely the cutest ever and I'll be coloring up these little guys lots!  I stamped this one in Memento Tuxedo Black and then colored him with Copics - the edges were sponged with Memento Cantaloupe before I took the image out of the Nestabilities, giving that white border.  The papers are from Stella & Rose Gertie and I added a little So Saffron bow and buttons.

The inside of the card has the sentiment, which I cut out with an oval Nestabilities die -
Would you like a chance to win the My Little Friend stamp set? Here’s what you need to do- go to each of the Trendsetter’s Blogs and leave a comment on their My Little Friend Blog Hop Challenge post. After you have finished checking out the eye candy and have left some love, return to the TSG Blog and add your name to the Mr. Linky at the bottom of this Blog Hop Challenge post. A winner will be chosen randomly using a random number generator to receive their very own My Little Friend stamp set. The winner will be announced Saturday (Mar 26th) during the Release Party Chat.
The next stop on the Blog Hop Challenge is the super fab Kim and there is lots more fantastic eye candy waiting for you along the way.

Thanks so much for stopping by!
Karen
