Hi everyone!!!
Today's post is doing double duty. The Simon Says Stamp design team is
taking part in a blog hop to celebrate STAMPtember! This post is also
for the Simon Says Stamp weekly challenge which is to 'Put a Stamp on
it!' (The design team is also incorporating washi/ decorative tape into
their projects).
If you haven't started at the beginning please go HERE.
Simon Says Stamp was founded in
2002 with an interest in exclusively selling rubber stamps. It didn’t
take long until we realized we couldn’t stop there. Over the past 10
years we've celebrated rubber stamping in its full glory by giving access to
people around the world to a one stop shop. Rubber stamps still remain
the heart of our business and we are celebrating by hosting a “STAMPtember”
™ event intended to inspire, educate, and celebrate the greatness of
rubber stamping. Part of the enticement of rubber stamping is that
stamps can be used in creating or complementing ANYTHING! From stamping
dates on bank documents and postage parcels in the early 18th century,
rubber stamping has dramatically expanded to include card making, scrapbooking, mixed media and many forms of altering and expressing art.
We are helping kick off STAMPtember
™ festivities with this Design Team Blog Hop! You have a chance along
the way to win a $25 gift certificate for hopping onto my blog AND
entering our challenge. Winners will be announced at 8AM September 12.
I'm celebrating STAMPtember ™ with these handmade cards using decorative tape to make two very different Christmas tress along with stamped sentiments:
Here's what I used to make my cards:
Please hop to my teammates' blogs. Each of them has a special handmade
work of art to share with you and also more prizes along the way!
Enter the "Put a STAMP On It!" Challenge and be sure to put a STAMP on
it and you could be the lucky winner of our GRAND PRIZE $100 Simon
Shopping Spree!
Just a reminder that the hop starts HERE. If you encounter a broken link, you can go
back to the beginning with links to everyone who is participating in the
hop.
Your final stop is the Simon Says Stamp Challenge blog.
Thanks for stopping by!
