Chase Away the Friday the 13th Blues . . .

and hop along in the Hanna Stamps "Good Luck Blog Hop!" Who believes in paraskavedekatriaphobia (fear of Friday the 13th)??? NOT ME!!! Friday the 13th is FAR from scary around here!!! I am so excited about this! I mean, how fun is it to blurf and then have an chance to win SURPRISE GOODIE BAGS for doing so???

It's so easy -- all you have do to be entered is leave a comment on this post, and then blurf on over to Cindy's blog and rinse and repeat. You can enter once on each of the design team members blogs and there will be a winner chosen at random from the comments left on each blog on Monday . . . HOW COOL EH?!

If you are reaching this post out of sequence, the blog hop starts HERE at Kristi's blog. (Don't want you to miss all the possible opportunities to win.)

This card is for the Friday challenge (HSFC60) in the Hanna Stamps forum over on splitcoast. This week Jeanne challenged us to use diamonds in our design, cause 'Hanna sparkles like a diamond' I framed the sentiment in a diamond. I actually think it turned out really neat looking. Thanks for the challenge Jeanne.

Hop Hop... I really love the color scheme, and it's absolutely adorable how you used the same printed paper for the little gift box. It's amazing how a simple rotation in the paper can open up a whole different look to the card.

I don't have one but . . .

I came across this article today and thought it might be of interest to some of you, so I thought I would post it here: Provo Craft ended up on loyal customers' 'naughty' list Tell me what you think about this? Do you think Provo Craft was in the wrong? Do you think they should have done this? I wanna hear all the goods and bads.

HANNA PREVIEW: For the Soul

This set is totally cool! I have not seen anything like it! I think it is perfect for a sympathy card, a thinking of you, a little hand out at church, maybe even for cards at Easter (thinking ahead here) etc. It is so CUTE! Hanna looks so angelic and well, to be completely honest, reminds me of my little sister (not sure why). I used the sketch at Card Positioning Systems (#83) for the layout. I was going for a "touched by an angel" look on the main image (and I think I kind of created that.) I used vellum to overlay the image to give it that glossy fuzz (soft focus). Stamps : For the Soul (Hanna Stamps), "God Bless" sentiment by American Art Stamp Paper: Lily Kate - Basic Grey, Neenah Solar White, SU vellum card stock, SU Whisper White Ink : Onyx Black Versafine Accessories : Sheer 5/8th Inch organdy ribbon, Nestabilities (Circle and scalloped circle), sewing machine, white thread, circle of plastic canvas, copic markers, white brads, paper piercing
