Just a Friendly lil Blog Hop!

Wahoo!!!  I'm here on a Friendly Little Blog Hop.  I have met some REALLY sweet ladies on a Swap Thread over on SCS...they took this newbie in with wide open arms and tolerate my antics!  :)  GOTTA LOVE THAT!!!!! 

SO, Banu has a Challenge blog that these gals play in (I must start paying better attention and play along), well we are all in a PTI (PaperTrey Ink) swap and we are doing a PTI Holiday hop!  I am a Born Again PTI Follower.  Do you see those papers?  Come on... who WOULDN'T become a PTI stalker!  LOL  I started out GREAT GUNS as is my normal way, and I have almost all of the colors of CS from PTI, THE best paper EVAH!!!!  I bought this stamp set from Sandye (where you will be hopping to next) and am IN LOVE... it comes with a Santa image also, old school Santa.  The set is called Believe.  I stamped it on PTI White colored with Copics added some bling to the berries in select spots.  I mounted the image on Avacado and Pure Poppy CS, the Distressed Dots DP and the Sugar Plum DP are both matted on Avacado CS.  Some Pure Poppy Twine (Thanks Crunchy) was wrapped around and a Pure Poppy button from the Buy Sell Trade thread finished it off.  Some more Bling in the corners and all pieces were given a strong super boost using Jody's Dimensionals, I tell ya these ROCK!!!!  Hold a LOT of weight, being red line adhesive...

SO, I hope you enjoy your hop and It's not time to head on over to Sandye's Blog, make sure you hold on to your wallet when you visit, she's known to be a sheisty one with pickin locks and what not!!!!  **snicker**
