Debut Day WITH a Blog Hop!!

Well, HOW ABOUT A BLOG HOP???

I am excited that 2010 has happened!  Aren't you?  A fresh start to conquering new goals, a fresh start to tackling the impossible for some!  AND a new day for Whimsie Doodles!!!!!!!

Today marks the beginning of a new release day for Whimsie Doodles!  We have changed the new stamp releases to ONE time a month, on the 5th of each month, so be sure to mark it in your calendar so you don't forget! 

My card below is using CLOUD 9 CUPID that can be found in the WHIMSIE DOODLES STORE HERE!  I love coloring these images with my Copic markers, just a pleasure, let me tell ya!  I used last week's color challenge from SplitCoastStampers for this one.... Dusty Durango, Basic Gray and Barely Banana!  How's that for a color combo!? HA!  The long "X & Heart" border is from the penguin stamp set you will see in my next card.... WHICH IS FOR THE BLOG HOP SCRAMBLE!



My project features the letter "I" which is for the "I LOVE YOU" image in my penguin card below! For my project, I used the new Whimsie Doodles set,  LIL CUPID, which is available in the Whimsie Doodles store HERE, starting today!



For my BLOG HOP "I" card, I used some papers from the Eskimo Kisses Basic Grey paper set!  A little Prima and BG Bling for flower centers, too!  Copic markers for coloring and Spellbinders Nestibilities for circle diecuts!  This card is based on the sketch at THE SUGAR BOWL!

To collect ALL of the scrambled letters go to the WHIIMSIE DOODLES BLOG or simply look in my side bar at left!!!   Comment on their projects and on the Whimsie Doodles blog for your chance to win some fantastic prizes!  Collect the letters to unscramble a phrase to be eligible to win some prizes!  Please do not reveal the answer to the puzzle publicly!  Just email Melyssa the 'answer' of the blog hop phrase {at whimsiedoodles@eastlink.ca be entered into the drawing for fabulous, free prizes!
Just by unscrambling the letters, you will get the PROMOCODE for a discount at the Whimsie Doodles store this entire week, until Friday at midnight eastern!  AND you will be entered for the three prizes, too!  Winners of the Blog Hop will be announced tomorrow at the Whimsie Doodles BLOG HERE!


GOOD LUCK and get ya some Whimsie Doodles today!
