The Craft's Meow January Blog Hop

Hello!

Welcome to the January blog hop at The Craft's Meow!  This month we are focusing on sets that are on sale in the shop, some as much as 50% off!  You should have arrived from Lin Brandyberry's blog, if not, no biggie...just go to The Craft's Meow Blog for all the details.


For my projects today, I focused on the set, Ladies and Gents.  This stamp set always makes me want to watch a Jane Austen movie.  For a look at some of the cards I made using this set when it released last summer, click HERE.


To start, I stamped the smaller umbrella using the back side in three different colors, going back and stamping the correct side and finishing it with a sentiment.



For the last card, I chose a masculine theme and repeatedly stamped the hat and finished it with a sentiment. Two super simple cards!


It wouldn't be a proper blog hop without a prize!  The winner  will receive a retiring stamp set of choice (in stock only)... drawn from one comment left on the store blog hop post. It will go through 9:00 pm Pacific on Wednesday, January 9th.

Also, you can take an additional 15% off the already reduced prices of retiring stamp sets, many of which have been marked down up to 50% off! The code to enter at checkout is Winter15. The sale goes through 11:59 pm Pacific on Friday, January 11th.


Now, head on over to see what the talented Nina Brackett has created!  Thanks so much for stopping by.
