2016 Season's Giving Blog Hop



1...2...3... Happy 2016!! Wishing you all a very happy New Year and may this year be a blessed, fantastic year for all of us filled with many goodness and amazing things.

Welcome to the 4rd annual Seasons Givings Blog Hop. What's unique & fun about this hop is every single blog that participate has giveaways. So, grab your cup of coffee and browse around. Stick around and you'll see my giveaways on the bottom of  my post. :)

2015 had been a great year for me. Creativity wise, it started with an invitation to join MFT Challenge Team and what an honor and a blast it's been. I gained some new friends and being part of MFT family been truly an amazing experience. And, closer to the end of the year, I get to join another amazing company that I just love, love, love, The Ton Stamps. I am blessed that I get to work with another group of awesome, talented girls. And, Caring Hearts Card Drive was a huge success as we collected over 21,000 cards.

Personally, 2015 was also a big year, cause I turned 40!! I sure don't feel or act like it, though. Hah! I have a bit of Peter Pan syndrome. I am excited for this new decade and what it'll bring. Hubby and I celebrate with a trip to Italy visiting Milan, Venice, Cinque Terre (what a dream place!) and Rome. Another important event was when we ended up adopted our foster pug, Clyde. Now, we are a family of 5 and I love it.

My motto for 2016? Same as last year. The best is yet to come. It's pretty much my motto for life. What's your motto for 2015? 

Now, as we started the new  year, I look back and want to share my top 5 favorite project from 2015. Let's get on with it right away, shall we?


 




From these, I guess safe to say, I love coloring and making cute card and flowers. To think that back in the days, I used to find flower stamps intimidating. Hah!

Now, on to the giveaways. I have 4!! To enter the giveaway simply follow my blog or follow me on Instagram (you can find me under: WIRIANTA). If you already a follower, please comment and let me know how long you've been following  my blog or my Instagram. Easy peasy, right. Oh, and if you have preference on which package you prefer, please say so on the comment. :) You have till Monday, 1/4/2016, midnight CST to leave a comment. I will announce the winners on Tuesday, 1/5/2016.


Prize package 1: MFT

Now, some of the sets are sample set, so they don't have the black print out cover. Sincethey don't have the black print out, if I took their pics, you won't be able to see clearly all the images since they're all just clear stamps. So, I just compile the print out image from MFT site. But, they all brand new, with the exception of 1 set that I have used 1 of the image (the crown on the 2nd set).

Prize package 2, 3 and 4 contain fancy dies from Crafter's Companion.

Prize package 2: Crafter's Companion With Love, Hello, Friend

Prize package 3: Crafter's Companion Daisy, Thank You,
Happy Birthday & Thinking of You

Prize package 4: Crafter's Companion Edge Dies

Are you ready to hop? Here's a complete list of the hop participants. Enjoy and good luck!

Jennifer Hovermale said...

What beautiful cards!! It's no wonder you made it to MFTs design team!! You are very talented and creative!! My favorite card is the one with the window. I love all the pale pinks and blues!! My motto for 2016 is to be the best person that I can be. I'm going to work on my patience this year. Somewhere along life, I became less patient. So now, it's driving everyone in the house crazy. Also, my other motto has and is always HOPE. Thank you for participating in this blog hop!! I would love to be the winner of any prize package; you are very generous. But,number one is my favorite.

How does one sign up to follow your blog. I'm a bit out of my league here. I know how to save a blog as a favorite so I can find and visit it on a regular basis. With proper instructions i would most certainly sign up for this blog. Oh and I love the stamp set prize package.
Thanks so much for sharing your wonderful creativity.
