15- Your Memories Here

Hi everyone! If you are looking for the Hydrangea Hippo/100 Proof Press blog hop, go here.

Today I want to share with you a project I made with the new goodies I just received from Your Memories Here.  The Winter 2013 collections from Prima are just gorgeous and I couldn't wait to play when my box arrived.

 Gorgeous Lyric Collection papers and chipboard....lovely flowers from a Prima Flower Grab Bag....

A few Vintage Trinkets from previous releases...and even a Wood Icon or three (hee hee) and a few jewels.

This collection is just so soft and sweet, and if you loved Printery and Almanac...this collection just slides right in.

I have a video in the works to show you all the yummy goodies Kristina has coming in the store, so be sure and check back next week.

Hugs.

Hydrangea Hippo is Hopping

Hi everyone!  If you are here for the Hydrangea Hippo/100 Proof Press Blog Hop, Welcome!  You should have just gotten here from Tracy's blog.  If not, you may want to go back to Hydrangea Hippo and start from there.  There are prizes both from Hydrangea Hippo and 100 Proof Press so be sure and check out the blogs.

Hydrangea Hippo has teamed up with 100 Proof Press (they make the most amazing stamps) to create some super fun projects.  I was simply thrilled to get the most gorgeous rubber stamps.  You know I am not really much of a stamper...but these are just beautiful and the images are so crisp and clear.

I decided to make a little card and bookmark set.  I used a bit of the paper from my Pack Your Bags and Scoot kit...gorgeous yellow lace and of course the beautiful stamps; kids in wagon, have you heard, and cute as a button.  After coloring with my distress markers.....

I embellished the card with a few gorgeous flowers; the peach tropical flower and a couple lavender flowers.

Your next stop is with Amy, and if you get lost along the way, here is the complete list.
