Wrap-Up of Blog Hop

2012-01-15T17:52:00.000-06:00

Wow, everyone!! And again I say wow!! What a fantastic blog hop and I am sooo excited we had a fantastic turnout and a wonderful time! The chat was fun, fun, fun and the creations were unbelievable. I really enjoyed just hanging out with everyone who showed up on PCP forum...lots of bad jokes and cyber love to be had. LOL

I have randomly selected 3 people from the chat last night to receive the next two Wryn images free of charge. I was only going to pick 2 chatters, but we had so much fun, I am including 1 more. :)

Anita Madden

Annie Rose

Ina

If you three ladies would please email me,

I will contact you with the next two images when they are ready. :)

And from the blog hop, we have two randomly featured participants/winners as well...You lucky ladies will need to email me too, and you will receive a $10 gift certificate to purchase images of your choice. :)

The first winner was # 16

JLL DESIGNS

the second winner was #32

SHIRLEY N

I really debated whether to add this next part or not since I feel like there was such amazing skill showcased last night that I can't possibly narrow it down and I did NOT want anyone feelings hurt, but I decided that we can all enjoy beauty and support each other, so I am going to show just 3 of cards so you can see a TINYYYY sampling of the incredible talent we had shared with us... I am not doing justice to many, many of the others that need to be showcased here, so don't be offended if your card is not here...I couldn't possibly choose between all of them....they were AMAZING!!! If you want to see all the awesome talent, please visit this post...you will not be disappointed as ALL of the cards are enviable.

Beate

Carisa

Mary J

I am still a bit giggly over how much fun I had hopping around----I got very, very inspired. :)

Thank you all so much for your support and love of Wryn and the other images....I am humbled and so pleased that you all are having so much fun with her...that makes me want to draw more---and that is the best feeling of all. :) So thanks for making my day in so many ways---I hope you had a good day too. :)

After the list closes at 6:00, we highly suggest you come back and HOP around to visit all the cards. If you wait, you won't miss any of the goodies posted on the DT's blogs...hehe And if you wait, you will get to see ALL the cards and comment to get qualified for the prizes. :)

Blog Hop Instructions! How to play along on January 13

2012-01-11T17:37:00.001-06:00

So I thought I would spell out exactly how to join in the blog hop on January 13 because we would love to have you play along...

Theme: Friends are the Flowers of Life: Use any Tiddly Inks digital image to create a card or project and participate in the blog hop

How to Participate:
This is actually a 4-step process:

One, you have to make the card in advance using a Tiddly Inks image, preferably with friends or flowers as the theme, but it is open to any TI image. Just have fun! :)

Two, post your photo and information on your own personal blog on January 13 before 12 PM CST--and at least by 5:45 PM CST---so you can meet the 6-hour window to enter the blog hop. The title of your post should be "Friends are the Flowers of Life - Tiddly Inks Blog Hop".

Three, once your blog post is live, visit the Tiddly Inks challenge blog (our enrollment list will be open for 6 hours--see times below) and link your blog hop post at the bottom of the "Flowers" Blog Hop post (there will be an Inlinkz list) in order to be qualified for the prizes. There is no need to sign up in advance---just have a post ready to link.

Four, the enrollment time will close at 6:00 PM (and hopefully we have about 30 to 40 people who linked) and then we hop around and view their cards---and your card---from the list on the Tiddly Inks challenge blog. Sounds like fun, right? Last time we had a hundred-plus people coming around and commenting and it was fun!! :)

Dates:
6:00 PM CST on Friday January 13 to 6:00 PM CST on Saturday January 14

The blog hop will run until January 14 at 6:00 PM. We will have a wrap-up "party" on January 14 in the Tiddly Inks PCP group from 6:00 PM to 10:00 PM CST. Stop in and chat with us in the comment section at the bottom of the page. Between 6 PM and 10 PM CST, one lucky PCP commenter will be randomly selected to receive the next 2 Tiddly Inks stamps before anyone else (free of charge).

Prizes: Two blogger participants selected from the Tiddly Inks Inlinkz list will be announced on January 15 and highlighted on the TI challenge blog. Each will receive a $10 gift voucher.

There will also be random prizes throughout the DT blogs, so be sure to comment and visit each one. :)

Wow Ya Wednesday featuring Leigh O'Brien from Sunflower Studio

2011-11-02T00:00:00.000-05:00

Oh you are going to L-O-V-E our feature for today! Please welcome Leigh O'Brien of Sunflower Studio

We are so very lucky to have Leigh joining us today! She has been creating with Tiddly Ink images for awhile now and we just could NOT resist asking her to be a feautred artist! Here is what she had to say about herself:
"I am lucky enough to be a stay-at-home mom to one great boy. I’ve been married for 16 years to a very tolerant man who looks the other way when the bags and packages come through the door – although, he often refers to my “studio” as “the crap room” instead of the CRAFT room! I have been stamping for at least 10 years and I love it. I love the the stamps and the supplies and the sense of accomplishment that completing a project brings. I also love the huge community of artistic, creative, wild and wacky stampers that I’ve met both in person and online. When I’m not making something crafty (and I’ve tried it all!), I like to read, go to the movies, enjoy the beach, sightsee, and spend time with friends and family. I am a huge Tiddly Inks/Christy Croll fan and am so thrilled to join you all."

Leigh made this fabulous creation for us using Soccer King - don't you just love the fun bright colors?

Here are a few other mouth watering creations from Leigh!
