Hop on in!

Hi hoppers!  I hope you are enjoying your bounce through our a*musing adventures!  You should have arrived here from Anna's, blog A la Carte.  If you are just visiting me because you love me (who wouldn't? ::grin::) you should head over to Samantha and Jeremy's blog, Kania's A Muse Studio so you don't miss a single stop on the hop!

I've got a very simple, sweet card for you today.  All supplies except the card base and pop up foam are A Muse|Studio.  The stamps all came with my Deluxe Starter kit pictured a few posts down.  As far as full sets that include the stamps, the butterfly is from Just Because and the leaves are Beautiful Botanicals 2.  The sentiment is from Essential Sentiments and the flower from Clever girls.  I used Orange, Grass and Papaya ink and Orange satin ribbon.  What card of mine would be complete without a good dose of A Muse Diamond glitter?  I used the Sakura Quickie glue pen to adhere the glitter.


What would a blog hop be without a little blog candy?  If you want a chance to win, all you have to do is comment below that includes some way to contact you.  If you want an extra chance to win, link to this post on your blog then leave me a comment telling me you did it, or link it on Facebook and leave me a comment saying you did it.  Make sure you leave separate comments to earn your extra chances.  I'll use random.org to pick a random number on Monday evening, 4/4/11.  Raise your hand if you want me to shut up and get to the goodies!  Ok, ok, ok!  Here's what you could win:






What's all of that?  It is a yard each of A Muse|Studio's Orange, Cherry and Bubblegum satin ribbon plus a new, never inked sentiment stamp like the one used on the card above "Thinking of You." 

If you want to see everything A Muse has to offer, click the A|S logo on the right.  If you want more information on A Muse, just ask!  Now, head on over to Carla's blog *Amusing Ink* for your next dose of A*Musement! 

Thanks for stopping by!

  35. Thank you ALL for the love! I've only been stamping since the first of the year and to have such seasoned stampers compliment me means a lot!

    And yes, the card could be for just about any occasion if you simply swapped out the sentiment. Thank you, get well, sympathy, Mother's day...anything!
