Seasons Givings Blog Hop

Hero Arts

Hello and Happy New Year! Today we are honored to join a huge annual blog hop, a concept started by Latisha Yoast to say "THANK YOU!" to our wonderful blog readers and share some extra goodies. Be sure to scroll down to the end of this post for the giveaway info, as well as the list of companies and bloggers participating. Every single blog along this hop is sharing a giveaway! You won't want to miss it!

But first, Ilina is here to share a little New Year's cheer with you! Take it away, Ilina!

Hi everyone, Happy New 2019!!! This is Ilina and in the spirit of the new year I am sharing an elegant (black and gold) New Year's day card featuring the Party Confetti Fancy Die along with the Wishes Stamp & Cut set.

To make the card I started with die cutting the Party Confetti Fancy Die from shimmery black card stock and set it aside. Next I die cut the Wishes sentiment from the Stamp & Cut set. I did this twice from gold card stock and adhered the die cuts together. 

Next on piece of vellum I stamped "Sending New Year's" with Versamark and embossed with Gold embossing powder. Using the Circle Infinity Dies I die cut a circle. Adhered the "Wishes" die cut to the vellum circle and let it dry.

In the meantime I adhered the black die cut to a gold top folding note card. Adhered the vellum circle, trimmed the side a little and added few Champagne sequins to finish the card off.

For our giveaway, we're offering all of the products Ilina used on today's card! That's a prize package valued at $86 retail! To enter, let us know your goal for the coming year. You have until Friday, January 4 at 11:59pm PST to enter, and we'll announce the winner the following week.

And now for the hop list - it's a long one, but full of fabulous giveaways! Have fun hopping along!

My goal is not to be q crafty proCRAFTnator. I am terrible about waiting till the last minute to do a project that needs to get done on a time limit!!! Especially when it is my dt projects or a special birthday , wedding or whatever the case may be. I wait till the last second then I am rushed and feel Like I don’t do my best work. On the contrary, I think it is when I do my best is when I am stressed and don’t have a ot of time to think about it but I would like to be NOT sooo stressed and relax a bit. Understand??? hahahahaha. SO my goal is to stay on top of my craft projects and finish them sooner so I am not sooo stressed. There I said it! hahahahaha

My goal for 2019 is to continue crafting and to not put too much pressure on myself to make “perfect” cards. Its easy to lose the fun of it when you’re trying to make every card super impressive, so this year I would like to keep in mind that I love crafting and creating and to not stress.
