~ Late for the Party ~
February 25th, 2009 by Holly McMillen
Good Morning, girls….
Well, call me late for the party! The There She Goes Trendsetters is having a little informal hop today through friday and I was suppose to get my post up by midnight last night, however, that did not happen as planned. I won’t go into detail, but let’s just say… the force was not with me.
My sneak peek this morning is from the brand spankin’ new set, Blessings, from There She Goes. This set is scheduled to release on March 1st, so keep your eyes peeled!
I love this irish themed set so much. I know that traditionally it would have some green somewhere, but I wanted to echo the simplicity of a long ago carpenter. So, I chose black and tan. The cross is stamped and cut out, then stamped again and just the center circle cut out and popped atop of it.
Here are my deets:
Stamps: There She Goes‘ Blessings
Colors: Basic Black, Creamy Caramel, Close to Cocoa
Ink: Brilliance Graphite Black, copics
Accessories: brads, grosgrain ribbon, MS border punch, dimensionals

Ok, so there is a prize at the end of this rainbow (blog hop)… here is what you have to do. Between now and Friday, leave a comment on all the TSG blogs, each day, and a winner will be chosen by random drawing! The pot o’ gold on this hop is going to be awesome!
