Love is in the Air at My Live in Arts and Crafts Blog Hop

Love is in the Air
My Life in Arts’ n Crafts’
Design Team Blog Hop

Valentines Day is right around the corner, so we are getting ready by showing our valentine creations.  You should be coming from Pam's Blog.
If not head on over to Jessi’s to get started.
I have used RED MESH RIBBON from the My Life in Arts’ n Crafts’ store. Jessi has some amazing new products over there, go take a look.


I made an easel card and stamped it and then heat embossed with Recollections chunky embossing powder. I then went back in and colored the rose, heart, and leaves with my Promarkers. The RED MESH RIBBON gave it that perfect touch in the background. The stamp was designed in the US and is numbered K-3117.

Jessi is giving away some goodies from her store to one lucky person who comments on all the blogs in the hop as well as you must be a follower.
Extra entry if you like the My Life in Arts’ n Crafts’ fan page. Comment on My Life in Arts’ n Crafts’ fan page, telling her you’ve done so.
Extra entry , OMG that means you have three chances to win!! Once you’ve gotten through the hop, head back over to Jessi’s blog and comment again saying what product you’d like to win.  So you might wanna check out the store and decide. One lucky person will win their choice. Make sure you leave a way to get in contact you.

Thanks for stopping by today and I hope we have inspired you and good luck with the drawing.

The Mad Hatter Tea Party



<center badge>




Welcome to The Mad Hatter's Tea Party. If you happen to fall in the rabbit's hole you have landed in the wacky wonderful world of Alice where we're all mad here! The March Hare is scurring and hoping you won't be late in attending and wishing our hostess a Happy Birthday!!! She does love celebrating her birthday and what better way than to have a tea party with all of her favorite friends in this Wonderland!!!!

There are some wonderful sponsors today to help us celebrate:


Rick St. Dennis has some fabulous digi's and he is offering three of these to one lucky winner. You can fine him at http://rickstdennis.blogspot.nl/ and he asks that you become a follower.




Here's my project which I hope you enjoy


 I made a Alice in Wonderland standing card. I found a vintage picture of Alice looking at the tiny door and couldn't resist using my Promarkers to color her and then I got the crazy idea of using my utility knife and cutting around part of her, inserting orange tulle to look like the curtain and giving it some detention which you can see in the pictures below.



Thank you for stopping and enjoying a cup of tea and perhaps crumpets with me! Your next stop along the party hop is Jenny or just follow the March Hare and don't be late for a very important date!
