Episode 27: My Pink Stamper Blog Hop

Welcome to the My Pink Stamper's Blog Hop!  If you are here from Meesh's Pieces with Michelle you are in the right place.  If you have come straight to my place and would like to start at the beginning go to My Pink Stamper's blog.

First a little about me:  I have been crafting for more than 5 years but I've only had my Cricut machine a little over a year.  I started my blog in November 2009.  I was so excited when I had 4 followers.  I knew 3 of them but I had one I didn't know and it thrilled me for weeks!  :)  I tried out to be on the first My Pink Stampers design team in March 2010 and made it.  This was the highlight of my crafting world.  :)  When I saw that she had another open design team call I knew I wanted to try out for it again.  It was a wonderful experience working with her and getting to know others in the crafting world.  I wasn't expecting to be on the team again since I was on it before so I was shocked and THRILLED when I heard my name announced last week.

My crafting "expertise" are cards.  Although, I have challenged myself to make other projects this year so come back often to see if I have finally accepted that challenge.  ;)  Some personal info: I'm 36, single, and live in Utah.  I have two puppies that I just adore, Tavis & Kyla.  I am going to school full time and I work full time.  If you have any questions or would like to see something specific let me know.  My email address is on the top left side of my blog.

For my project I chose to do a card (shocker!).  ;)  It's a birthday card for a friends daughter who loves the 50's, pink & purple, and anything shiny or w/ bling.

If you would like to see how I made the card, including the flocking on the purse, you can watch my video here:

*I normally like my videos between 5-7 minutes but I was showing different techniques in this one so it was longer than I wanted.

I am giving away 2 Hampton Art flocking sets for my blog candy.  To be eligible please leave a comment on this post with a way to get a hold of you.  You do not need to be a follower of my blog to win.  Only 1 entry per person.  You have until Monday, January 17th, 10pm MST to make a comment.  I'll announce the winner on Tuesday, Jan 18th.
