Stampers Dream and Freinds Blog Hop June 2011

To see today's Mojo Monday Card please scroll down one!
Welcome to the Stamper's Dream & Friends Blog Hop! I'm super excited about all the very special friends that are hopping with us today.  Michelle has asked some very special gals to join the dream team today to share there fabulous talent...thanks for joining us!  I have used my new favorite Christmas stamps....this set is from JustRite, it is called Merry & Bright ...wow...I adore the fact that you can pair it with the Spellbinders Heirloom Ornaments Nesties.  I stamped both ornaments and put the sentiment inside the larger one.  The smaller ornament has a place for a sentiment but I stitched inside of that one so that I could pair them together with only one sentiment.  I stamped them and heat embossed them(using Judikins embossing powder) onto BasicGrey designer paper.  The sweet trim under the ribbon is a fun find that I found the other day with my dh, we go on scavenger hunts from time to time looking for whatever catches our eye....this caught mine....hehehehe.

The blog hop list for today is listed below. I told ya there where some amazing glas with us today.  Please be sure to leave a comment for each and every one of them when you visit their blog post today, the chance to win is hidden on one of the blogs listed.  You have the chance of winning the blog candy that is shown on Michelle's blog.  I hope you have a wonderful day and remember it's not to early to start on those Christmas cards......enjoy!
