Seasons Givings Blog Hop (+GIVEAWAY!)

31 Dec

Lots of giveaways happening on my blog right now!  I’ve got a stamp giveaway here and a $50 gift card giveaway to Simon Says Stamp here and here! 😉  Good luck!! 

Happy New Year!!  I am so excited to be participating in the Seasons Givings blog hop for the first time!  The hop is in it’s 5th year and is the brainchild of the amazing Latisha Yoast!  EVERY stop on this hop is a giveaway and there are A LOT of stops (over 70!)! 😉 We want to thank you, fabulous readers, for a wonderful year of crafty support and friendship!  I am giving away the Concord & 9th Celebrations stamp and die set pictured below!

My giveaway is open worldwide and is open for one week!  Please leave a comment on my blog letting me know if you have a New Year’s resolution and what it is (if you’re willing to share!) before 11:59 PM EST on Saturday, January 7th, 2017!  The winner will be announced on January 8th.

Yesterday I posted a round-up of my favorite cards of 2016 with a separate giveaway that you can find here  but I did want to share one more card with you!  I don’t often make New Year’s cards (I’m usually a little wiped out after Christmas card madness) but I made this card back in September and thought I’d share it again to wish you all a very Happy 2017!

I have a few crafty resolutions for 2017 that I’ll share and one that I’ll keep to myself until December 31st, 2017! 😉 I hope to improve my handlettering, complete at least once video a month, and delve into bujo and decorative bujo! 🙂 And most importantly I’m determined to get more comfortable with shading using copics and colored pencils.  Here’s to lots of crafty success in 2017 to all of us!

Below you’ll find the full hop list!  Have fun hopping and if this is your first time stopping by my blog, I hope you’ll visit again!  You can subscribe to my blog via the widget on the sidebar or find me on YouTube, Facebook, or Instagram!  Have a great day and Happy New Year!!

    Awesome New Years card. My resolution is to try and make at least two cards when I usually get just one done hopefully per week.

    My New Year’s resolution is to stop procrastinating and stay on top of my card making projects and scrap booking.

    My New Years resolution is to try to use the stamp sets that I have instead of always purchasing something new. Happy 2017 and thank you for the chance to win your great prize!

    I love this card, and all your others! One of my resolutions is to really make time for myself to craft. I’ve got two little kids (3 & 4) and they keep me pretty busy! Hope your 2017 is wonderful!!

    Happy New Year! My crafty goal for the new year is to learn to watercolor using the set of zig clean color real brush markers my husband gave me for Christmas. Thanks for participating in the blog hop and giving us a chance to win a great prize!

    You did such a great job with this lovely bokeh card! I never seem to do too well with that. One of my goals for this year is to Watch less and DO more. I spend way too much time surfing and bookmarking projects I want to do ‘some day’ Hoping to actually DO some of them this year! Thanks for the chance to win this fab prize!

    My resolution is to stamp more nature scenes, use more of my single unmounted stamps, try to think outside the box for my card creations, and to be less critical of my own work.Thanks for being part of the hop and sharing a chance to win.
