Bows and Berries challenge #15 and Blog Hop


Hey, everyone. It is the last challenge this year and also a blog hop for Bows and Berries.  You should come from Yvonne's blog. If not, you can start at the beginning from Bows and Berries

The current challenge is to create a paper craft using toasty gingerbread man.  I printed him out on brown, red and white cardstock, and a piece of my mind's eye patterned paper scrap.  Then I paper pieced his hat and scarf, added glitter glue and stickle.   A stripe of pattered paper was adhered to kraft card base and stitched with zig-zag stitches.  Sentiment are Sticker-z from EAD Designs.

Please hop along and leave a comment at all blogs to be eligible to win two digis of your choice from individual blogs.  If you create any paper crafts with the free digis at the shop and link it up on Bows and Berries, you will be eligible to win the grand prize of 10 digis, or one of the other prizes of 2 digis from the shop.  You have until Dec. 11th at midnight GMT to comment and play along.
 
Robin also has a coupon for 50% off everything in the shop for this period using the code GIFT50.

Your next stop is Janet, I know she will have something awesome for you.
 
Happy Monday! Thanks for stopping by.
