12 More Samples and 200,000 hits!

Here are 12 MORE samples of 4x4 cards using the Tie the Knot Simply Scrappin' Kit from Stampin' Up!   I just love this kit and as you can see, I have combined it with our Sale-A-Bration Rub-Ons, taffeta ribbon, wide Grosgrain ribbon, and the fabulous new Poly-Twill ribbon from the upcoming Occasions Mini Catalog.

AND... WAHOOOOOOOOO... can you believe it... my blog received it's 200,000th hit overnight last night!!!  OH MY GOSH!  In just 9 short months - 200,000 hits!!  wowza!!!  To celebrate, I'll be randomly picking 4 people who leave a comment to this post, and I'll be sending you some of these Tie the Knot Cards!  good luck! (winners selected at 9:00am Tuesday, Feb. 19)

Did you know our Scallop Circle punch fits the "heart/flower" rub-on perfectly?? (upper left card below).. I didn't know that until I tried it .. but it's too cute!

Have a terrific day and THANKS for stopping by!
