Welcome to the Elle's Studio Birthday Blog Hop!
It's Elle's Studio's 5th birthday and we've been celebrating all month long. Every Saturday in March you can check the Elle's Studio blog for something extra special. Also, a very cool & special pen is included with every order in March. Today we've got this fun blog hop where you can visit the design team member's blogs and enter to win a $20 gift certificate at each stop! That is 6 chances to win!! In honor of this occasion, I'd like to share my 3rd project from the gallery this month, along with a pair of birthday cards I made:
Another page with the Studio Calico kit for March.
(Definitely one of my all time faves.)
My trusty date stamp - always a perfect match with Elle's tags.I like to cut the tags apart and mix them together. Here I cut and stacked 3 of them:
I've also got a couple of graphic birthday cards I made. A mix of Elle's Studio, the same Studio Calico kit from above and some SRM stickers. Love how the graphic elements mix with the cursive font on the stickers. I used the brand new Large Noted Journaling Tags for the circular focal point and added the Handmade Layers Birthday Pennants:
Have you seen the Elle's Studio Inspiration Gallery this month? I'm always inspired to use these tags in new and creative ways once I've gone through it. This month Paige Evans is our guest designer, making the gallery even more inspiring. So, now for the part where you can win - and you will have several chances as a winner will be picked from each blog on the list below. The prize: a $20 gift certificate to Elle's Studio. So, please leave a comment - and stop by the rest of the blogs and comment there to increase your chances. Here's a handy link list to help you on your way:
We'll be drawing winners on March 26 - make sure you stop by to see if it's you.
