Ladybug Blog Hop!!!



.........................................................................................................


Hello everyone - well it's another big day today here at the Ladybug Crafts Ink Challenge blog!  Kerry has a new release of stamps and we are having a Blog Hop to celebrate!! 

Lots of chances to win a prize!!

Firstly the Hop.. all the DT have not only had to use the challenge theme, but they have also each used one of the new images. There are 4 in all and you'll agree when you see their creations the new images are just fabulous! (None of the DT have seen each other's cards either so we can't wait to hop either!)

So onto the rules of the Hop - which are...

a) Visit each of the DT members in order and leave a comment on each of their blog hop posts.

b)  leave a comment on the challenge blog once you have finished the hop.

c) Display the blog hop banner which is at the top of this post on your blog, either in a post or on your side bar.
The First Prize is all 4 images in the new release
and we have 4 Runner up prizes of one new image each.  Winners will be chosen at random!

Easy eh?

The hop will close 12pm midday GMT on Monday 2nd MAY and the winner will be announced at 9am GMT on Tuesday 3rd MAY


Now onto the challenge - which is the other way you can win a prize.. and this week its KERRY who has chosen the theme which is  ....

FASHION

 So you have 2 ways to win a prize .. you can just play along with the hop or enter the challenge .. and for the brave you can do both! 

And if you don't win.. you can still enjoy the stamps at a discount price as the stamps will be on sale from Tuesday with a special price of £5.50 until Monday May 2nd 

Have fun.. and cant wait to see your fabulous fashionable creations

Wow! What an introduction! You should have arrived here from one of my "card idols" Jeanie aka "The Spotted Chick". Nothing like trying to follow the best! Here is my card with just one of the new stamp releases.
I guess I am really hoping for some warm sunny weather cause I just had to go with the flip flops. This image comes with 3 sentiments and the one I chose got all stickled up around the edges to add a little bling to the card. I have a palm tree charm dangling from the ribbon and tried to use some bright tropical colors on my card. Alright everyone, the next person on the hop is the fabulous and multitalented Lisa!
