Seasons Givings Blog Hop

Hi peeps. This is my 2nd post for today. For my Avocado Arts post please scroll down.


Welcome to the Seasons Givings Blog Hop!  This hop is going to be a little bit different, in the fact that every single person on the list below, is giving something away.  All you need to do, is go to their blog, and leave a comment.  Really, really easy.  Now grab a cup of coffee, or tea, or maybe some hot chocolate, whatever your favorite is, and start hopping.  You should arrive here from Cristal (Pinky) Hobbs.

Among my blessing, I am grateful that I have pretty decent collection of crafting stuff. And, with designing for several companies my crafting stash continue to keep growing. However, one can have too many stuff and it's always good to find new homes for these goodies that don't get used often or never been used at all. So, here to starting off the year 2013 in a fun way with a giveaway and a couple cards. :)

First up, my card to say happy New Year to everyone. I actually made this card a while back and it was published on Paper Crafts 2012 November December online version. The best way to welcome a new year is with a smile, right? I hope this cute bear makes you smile.


Next is another card I made for Some Odd Girl January challenge. I know, the holiday is over, but last month I had to squeeze in time to craft, so I figure whatever I make better be double duty. Something that I can use and send right away and fulfill my DT requirement. Yep, another cutesy card.

Now, the fun part!! The giveaway. I am giving away 2 package of stamps. The 1st package include 2 sets from SP & Company and 1 set from Stamps of Life. The 2nd package include 4 sets from PSA Essentials. And... in both package I will add some extra SURPRISE embellishment goodies. 

1st giveaway plus some extra embellishment goodies.

2nd giveaway package plus some extra embellishment goodies.

For a chance to win these packages, simply leave a comment below by midnight CST Thursday, January 3, 2013. If you choose to follow my blog, I am grateful, but it's not a requirement. :) Winners will be announced on Friday.

Now, go hop around. From here please hop on over to Jennifer Gallacher. In case you miss a link,below is a complete list for the hop.
