Epiphany Crafts' Card-a-Palooza Sweepstakes Blog Hop

Welcome to Epiphany Crafts inaugural blog hop and Card-a-Palooza.  If you have just happened upon my blog today, you may wish to go to the start of the blog hop so you don't miss any of the cards the design team has prepared.  As you hop your way from blog to blog you will see 12 different cards showcasing Epiphany Crafts used with 12 different manufacturers.  As you visit each of our design team member's blogs, make a note of the sponsoring company. After you know all 12 companies visit the Epiphany Crafts Facebook page at http://www.facebook.com/pages/Epiphany-Crafts/138008244814 and leave a comment on the Card-A-Palooza thread listing the 12 companies (abbreviations are okay) and you will be entered into the drawing for a GIANT prize package. You will be receiving product from each of the sponsoring companies plus tools from EC. Best of all, you will be receiving the 12 handmade cards shown on the blogs, all ready to use throughout the year. This is a huge giveaway that you won't want to miss!

The month of August is full of birthdays in my family so I have prepared a Birthday Card today using the 14mm round shape tool in conjunction with myStamp BOX stamps.

Supplies:  Paper (Best Creation Inc.), Stamps (myStamp BOX), Floss (Karen Foster), Shape Tool (Epiphany Crafts), Gems (Kaisercrafts)

The pennants you see here are a brand new release from myStamp BOX. Look for it on the site in the very near future.  The sentiment is from the "Mention It" set.

I used two different pennant stamps to acheive the look you see here.  I raised the solid shape on top of the scallop pennant with foam mounting squres.  The little stars were punched directly from the Best Creation patterned paper.  You wouldn't know I made them if I didn't tell you.  That's how great these tools are!

Next up on your blog hop is the talented LISA WILKINSON. 

Have Fun & Good Luck!
