INKlings Christmas in July Blog Hop 2011

Welcome to the INKlings team Christmas in July Blog Hop for 2011. You may have arrived here from Cath Dean's or just be visiting my blog, whichever way once you have checked out my creations you can continue the hop through the link at the end of my post to the next team member.

How Quick is this year going?! have you started to think about your Christmas cards and projects. The INklings team has and we thought that this month was the perfect time to host another blog hop and give you plenty of ideas and inspiration.

If you would like to win some blog candy simply just leave and comment on each blog and then email Clare and let her know you have left a comment on each one to go in the running for a fantastic prize of some hand made items.
Sorry blog candy is not available to fellow SU Demo's but still feel free to leave a comment!

Here is my creation-

I have used a 10x8" shadow box frame from Bunnings along with the Ornament Punch and Delightful Decorations Stamp set to creat my Christmas tree, along with some buttons and bling. I first saw one of these at my upline Michelle Paully's house last year and wanted to recreate it to match my beautiful black and silver tree. Michelle found the original idea on a UK demo's blog
Jenny Moors. I think it would look great in any colours and may even make a few myself. They are very quick and simple to make, the hardest part was painting the frame.

My contribution to the blog candy is thes little package of gift tags using Sparkly & Bright and Delightful Decorations. There are 12 tags for you to use and enjoy.

Well thats is from me, next stop is Vanessa Cook

Have fun and don't forget to leave a comment on each blog to be in the running for the blog candy.

Thanks for stopping by,

Colour Renovation

Hello out there!

As promised here are the two links showing the colours that are staying and going, some of my favourites are staying or coming back with the return of a few past In Colours returning as core colours, but sadly there are a few of my favs leaving us.
So if you have any favs that are leaving please order any card, ink refills and accesories ASAP to avoid missing out on them.
On top of these we will still get our new range of In Colours in Sept when this starts
