JustRite Mega March Blog Hop Day 2!!!


Welcome to Day 2 of the JustRite Mega March Blog Hop. I am so honored to be included in today's hop with so many wonderful stampers. For my project I chose to work with the set Stitched with Love, one of my favorite JustRite stamp sets.

I stamped the heart image first, colored with copics and then stamped the flower again, cut it out and popped it up. The I stamped the sentiment and cut it out with a Nestabilities.

In keeping with the sewing theme, I made a paper quilt for the background, cutting squares and sewing them together. Then I added lace, ribbon, and buttons threaded with twine to finish off my card.

Here is a close up look. You can see how the flower is popped up and accented in the center with a button. To make the heads on the pins, I used very small pearls and colored them my copics.

Now for the details for the hop:

30 designers, FIVE shopping sprees each day. No one knows where the prizes will be! Each day of the hop JustRite will have five Mystery Blog Candy Prizes hidden along the hop with a total retail value of $600. JustRite will randomly select five mystery blogs each day of the hop and randomly allocate each of the shopping sprees. For your chance to win, simply leave a little love (a comment) on each designer’s blog including the JustRite blog. The more designers you leave comments with, the better your chances of winning. Each day’s comments will remain open for three days. A winner from each of the mystery blogs’ comments will be randomly chosen using Random.org. Consult the listing of designers at the JustRite blog each day (each day’s designers will be different) and start out on your way! Beginning Friday, March 26, summaries of all the winners will be posted on the JustRite blog. Good luck to everyone and enjoy all the JustRite eye candy along the hop!

Today during the JustRite Mega March Blog Hop (Day Two) JustRite and its sponsors will be giving away the following five prizes:

· $200 JustRite Shopping Spree
· $100 Spellbinders Shopping Spree
· $100 Stamp Simply Ribbon Store Spree, and
· Two additional $100 JustRite Shopping Sprees!

Blog comments for Day Two will be open until Friday at 6pm EST. On Saturday, JustRite will announce on their blog which five blogs have the mystery candy for Day Two. You will need to go to the JustRite blog to determine where you need to go to find out if you are one of the five lucky winners.
