There She Goes ~ Autumn Mosaic Blog Hop Challenge ~

Hello Friends!

I’ll bet you’re wondering why my sneak peek post is here on the TSG blog instead of my own. Well, sometimes good things happen at bad times. This is one of those times. Splitcoaststampers is upgrading our Wordpress blogs today and they will be unavailable for a good chunk of the day, so Jessica agreed to let me share here! Thanks, Jessica!!

If you’ve arrived here from Corinna’s blog, then you are spot on! If not, you might want to check out the post above to get the scoop on how YOU can win a copy of this amazing new set.

Fall happens to be my favorite time of year. I love the crisp mornings. It makes my coffee taste just that much better! I love the changing of the leaves. I love the hint that cooler days are ahead.

For my sneak peek, I made a couple of quick note cards. This new set is so versatile, I think you are going to add it to that *MUST HAVE* list!





Simply done, I just used a rotary cutter to create the curve in my card topper. Then I punched a scalloped oval and finally I used my beloved swiss dots embossing folder to give it texture.

Here are my deets:

Stamps: There She Goes’ Autumn Mosaic

Colors: Chocolate Chip, GP White, Bella Rose dp

Ink: Versafine Black Onyx, copics

Accessories: 7/8” chocolate grosgrain, ½” red satin, red ½ pearls, circle nesties, oval punch, scalloped oval punch, dimensional, scor tape, rotary cutter, swiss dots embossing folder.

Now it’s time to send you hopping! You’ll want to head on over to Iwona’s blog to see what eye candy she has waiting! Thanks so much for stopping by today. I am very hopeful that I’ll be back on my blog, Toy’s Haven, tomorrow!

Hugs!

Holly
