New release and blog hop for Ladybug Crafts Ink!

(Please scroll down for my A Spoonful of Sugar DT post!) 

As promised last week, today we are celebrating a new release for Ladybug Crafts Ink at the Totally Ladybug Tuesday challenge blog!  And that means lots of chances to win a prize by either joining in with the hop or play this week's challenge!  Or better still, do both to increase your chances to win!

First the hop... the DT have each used one of the four new images for the challenge them - and they are gorgeous as I am sure you will agree!  The rules of the hop are simple...

  1. Visit the DT blogs, leaving a comment on each of their blog hop posts
     
  2. Leave a comment on the challenge blog once you have finished the hop
     
  3. Display the red hot handbag blog hop banner (mine's on the side bar), either in a post or on your side bar
 
The first prize is all 4 images in the new release and we have 4 Runner up prizes of one new image each.  Winners will be chosen at random.

The hop will close 12pm midday GMT on Monday 2nd May and the winner will be announced at 9am GMT on Tuesday 3rd May.
You should have got here from the lovely HAYLEY.  If you get lost along the way, you can find the full list over at the challenge blog here.
Now onto the challenge, the other way you can win a prize... and this week it's the boss lady Kerry who has chosen the theme which is ... FASHION! Here is my card...

 
 

Sexy, huh?!  And I really do own a pair of bright red high heels too!  Not quite as sexy as these though.  This new stamp is called Gina and better still, the funky sentiments (along with others) also comes with the image.  The new release is already in the shop with a special price of £5.50 until Monday 2 May - you can get them in the stamp section here!

Okay, that's it from me today - you now need to hop on over to the wonderful TAMS.  Goodbye for now!


I am entering my card into Sir Stampalot's ladies and fashion April challenge, Card Cupid's challenge to use punches and Stampavia and More for birthdays. 


Paper/cardstock: Bazzill red cardstock and Bling cream and black cardstock, My Minds Eye Stella & Rose Gertie paper pad
Stamps: Ladybug Crafts Ink Gina shoes and sentiments (in the stamp section here)
Mediums: Copics
Accents: ribbon from stash, Papermania flat backed pearls
Tools: Nestabilitie dies, Martha Stewart border punch

    Love the colours you have used, red seems to be the perfect dramatic colour for the new stamps. Your decoration of the inside as well as the outside of your card is really stunning too. Anne
