Here's an awesome image from artist Sandra Caldwell. Today is the last day of blog candy this month and also a day in which Sandra will be giving away a wonderful freebie on her blog Babycakes Doodle This and That. It's been such a fun month. I am so glad that all of you have celebrated with me this year. I feel so lucky to be so blessed.
I will be announcing final winners tomorrow and anticipate getting lots of mailing done shortly after that, so please stay tuned. If you see your name, please email me your address! Lots more winners to be posted, so Keep an eye on the list!!
This amazing card is done with some stunning papers from Paper Temptress including shimmery Mica cardstock called Flame. The image was printed out on Heavenly White, which runs through my printer beautifully and works well with Copic markers. The wonderful borders are Hambly overlays. They come from some 12x12" sheets that I just trim off the parts that I like for each card I want! Isn't that a great idea? The 12x12 sheets I get last a long time and I get to do lots of wonderful cards with each one. This card is using Brown Grandma's Wallpaper. It's just stunning on this card! Be sure and look at this card closely, as when you see the sheet in the store, it's hard to believe it's the same paper. The detail shown here is wonderful.
Be sure and drop by and catch the amazing freebie at Babycakes Doodle This and That today, I don't know when she will post it, but when she does, it's a wonderful freebie for everyone!!
My prize today is a great gift certificate to Paper Temptress. To be eligible, drop by the Paper Temptress store, check out the Hambly Overlays and tell me which one is your favorite. Prize today is an amazing $25 gift card to Paper Temptress (winner announced early next week!) (NOTE: as of 10:30 am Paper Temptress is having a problem, but I will check back and see if they are able to get the site going, just leave a comment as usual today).

Congratulations Holley! This month went fast for us but if you were making a card a day it may have been harder for you. This is a fabo card too. I thank you for showing me another example of the Hambly overlays. The Paper Temptress link says it has a virus & won't let me open it. Lotsa Love & I will be back~Patti
ReplyDeleteThe month ended....already. I love the card. He has such a cute expression. I really like the wings overlay (of course I love butterflies).
ReplyDeleteOh...I should have told you that I can't get to the Paper Temptress site. My virus scanner won't let me go there. It says there is a threat on that site.
ReplyDeleteI saw the overlays by going to this site...http://www.franticstamper.com/Hambly-Overlays_c_2027.html
Thanks for a fun month! Congrats!!
ReplyDeleteLove the lion ~ so cute! And those overlays are very pretty!
Hi Holley it has been a great month of blog candy. I could not get on to paper temptress site but I went to frantic stamper inc on there my favourite overlay is Grandma's Wallpaper Metallic Gold.
ReplyDeleteIt does not seem like 3 years since your surgery so glad it worked out
Hugs Eileen

Wow, this month has flown by. Congrats again on 3 years - what a fantastic milestone. I tried to go to the paper temptress site but also hit the malware warning - i'll have to check out the Hambly overlays later today.

Another great prize today, and I find out I won on Feb 17 (which was my 40th Anniversary too!!) Whooo Hooo! Thanks so much Holley!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for a great month of inspiration. I have discovered many new companies that I will be supporting. So happy that you can have this celebration of your health. It is such a blessing.
ReplyDeleteAwe...Your card is adorable. I love the lion. Your borders are wonderful too. Perfectly done. I tried to get over to paper temptress site and it is very sad that it is not working. I feel for her. I did go ahead and google Hambly overlays just to see what I could find ..They are adorable. I love the butterfly one and the peacock one and so many more. I will try to access her site again later today. I am sad it's the last day. I have had a blast celebrating your 3 year with you. I will come back often though and see what you create for our crafty eyes. Hugs to you.
ReplyDeleteGrrrrreat stamp LOL. I love paper temptress's card stock. Had great fun this month looking at all your wonderful creations.

I was excited to find another resource for paper, unfortunately there seems to be a problem with the link or the site. I even googled them with no luck. Anyway, Oh do I LOVE this animal image - your card is stunning too! So nice getting to know you, your amazing talent and your wonderful website this month. May the Lord continue to keep you healthy and enjoying life.

Boohoo, it's still buggy at Paper Temptress, which I guess is best for me because my paycheck can only handle so much every two weeks! LOL
ReplyDeleteSo I choose your lovely 12x12 patterned paper that you cut out and used for your card's border-mwahaha! It is beautiful, and it goes so well with Sandra's cute image!!
I know this is the end of your month-long celebration, but I know you never stop celebrating the amazing gift of life you received. And because of it, we get to profit from your artwork, your inspiration and your generous heart. Here's to lots more years to come!! Happy anniversary, Holley!

Hi Holley, I have just tried to visit papertemptress.com again by clicking the link and by typing the address into my browser. My antivirus says it has been reported as an attack page. Big red warning. Sorry, that doesn't sound good so I won't be visiting. A pity because you have pointed me in the direction of some brilliant sites this month. Thanks for a great and fun month. Sending you best wishes and cyber hugs
ReplyDeleteFabulous card and the lion is gorgeous.

Fantastic lion you have colored and great card with it! =)

A lion isn't brave without a strong heart :D Cute card! I love it <3
ReplyDeleteI love this one! She is something else. Her work and yours are great!
ReplyDeleteI love this card. This just made my day!
ReplyDeleteI don't remember if I commented on the lion, but I hd to make sure I told you just how cut he is . My goal is to be as good as you are one of the these days when it comesto coloring stamps.
ReplyDeleteHi Holley, another gorgeous card sweetie and such a fabulous image. I tried the link to see the Hambly's overlays but my security software wouldn't let me - said there was malware on the site. So I used the link in one of the comments here and my favourite is the Five Dandelions in purple.
ReplyDeleteHave really enjoyed your month long blog candy sweetie and for such an amazing and fantastic reason too. Keep on smiling hunni.
hugs
Dawn xx
