There She Goes Preview | Day ONE

Hello! It's an exciting week here for There She Goes and the Trendsetters have a fun little blog hop to kick off the new release - PLUS you have a chance to win some goodies, so keep reading and find out the details. The hop started off at There She Goes, but if you came to my blog from Julie's, then you're at the right stop.

First there were fairy tales and then fairies and now she has added a touch of country cottage to her fabulous build a scene stamp line! Use alone or along with the other stamp sets designed by Di to create wonderful handmade creations.

Beautiful Day is a set that includes a total of 10 stamps and will sell for $15.


Isn't she just the cutest sitting in her little window?  I did some masking to create this image - first I stamped the flower box, then masked over it, stamped the little girl, masked over that (along with the flowers), then stamped the window and added the shutters on the sides.  The layout is CPS129.  I made the sentiment tag with the Ribbon Tag 3 Spellbinders and then just cut off the ends where the ribbon would go. 

Would you like a chance to win the Beautiful Day stamp set? Here’s what you need to do- go to each of the Trendsetter’s Blogs and leave a comment on their Beautiful Day 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 Beautiful Day stamp set. The winner will be announced Saturday August 27th during the Release Party Chat.

Next on the blog hop is the super fabulous Melyssa!

Thanks so much for stopping by!
Karen
