BYSHC Spring Hop



Hello my friends,

I am so super excited to be a sponsor once again for this wonderful hop. I had to miss all of last year due to some health problems but I am back sponsoring and I am also participating! Thanks to my sweet friend Crystal for always including me in the sponsorship opportunity even though I do not have a business, just years and years and years of stash! Did I say years? 

You have a chance to win prizes if you join in with the linky party. All information can be found here at the Build Your Stash Holiday Cardmakers blog

My prize for a total of 3 different winners will be a Mystery Christmas Cardmaking kit. I hope you will enter and can't wait to see all the submissions!


For inspiration today I went through my Not 2 Shabby Christmas collection stash...I have quite a bit! I had a kit that was basically scraps so I wanted to completely smash it! 

Here are the cards I did using this month's sketch. 













I hope you will come back each day this week to see what I am entering into the Spring BYSH cards blog hop. I am certainly looking forward to getting ahead on my Christmas cards.

I had totally intended to do a video each day of this linky party but my computer crashed this morning!! If you know me you know I don’t do things on my phone or even my iPad really I prefer my computer, however thank goodness for those other technologies this morning. 


I used Crystal’s sketch from the Build Your Stash Holiday Cardmakers group to create my 2 cards today. 


Here are my 2 cards:

BYSHC Linky Party Day 6 | Using up Old Stash

 


I have a drawer in my Dream Box that I have full of Christmas papers. I recently sorted and organized this drawer into sets of cards that would be easy to pull out and make in one cardmaking session. I even sketched out a little sketch and attached it with the papers. So today, I pulled out a set from that drawer. 

I was able to create 7 cards from that little set. 

You can create some cards as well and enter them in the Build Your Holiday Stash Linky Party.

Unfortunately, the papers were left over from another session some time ago and I did not have any indication with them as to what the collection or company these papers come from. 










BYSHC Linky Party Day 5 and Stayin' Cool, Kendra's Card Challenge, and Lawn Fawn




I am loving this Linky Party...it is really motivating me to get these cards finished. Another busy day though so I did not get the rest of KCC 11 cards created but did finish off 2 more. Sketches #4 and #5 are up today. And the super cute little snowmen are the star of the show.

Make sure to enter your own creations over at the BYHSC blog.

You can find all the products listed below the photo.


 

BYSHC Linky Party Day 4 | Stayin' Cool and Kendra's Card Challenge



Day 4 and I made it! Only 1 card today but it was a super busy day. 

I am using the Not 2 Shabby paper pad "Stayin' Cool" and Kendra's Card Challenges for my set of July cards. I already showed 3 cards last week prior to the Linky party starting on my YouTube Channel

You can enter your own creation here. There are some fantastic sponsors. 

So today, I started working on the rest of the cards and before having to leave to go to an appointment I was able to get one completely finished! I have also used Gina Marie Designs Cursive Merry Christmas die and a snowflake that I am unsure of the brand. 




 This is Sketch # 7 from Kendra's Card Challenge 11. You can download her sketches from her website. Kendra's Card Challenges. Then enter your cards in her Facebook group...there are LOTS of prizes to be had for the quarter. She also gives out prizes for each month as well.
