Crafter's Companion Blog Hop and a sneak peek

Welcome to the Crafter’s Companion Blog Hop to celebrate the release of Beatrix Potter: Appley Dapply’s Nursery Rhymes CD and stamp set. If you have landed here from Lynsey then you are hopping in the right direction. If not then you need to pop over to Crafter’s Companion News Blog to begin.

Our DT have had a great time creating with the new range from Crafter’s Companion and to celebrate the launch of this stunning new collection on Friday 21st January we have decided to give you a chance to see some Sneak Peeks and also have the chance of winning the fabulous prize of The Appley Dapply’s Nursery Rhymes CD and stamp set, plus a pack of watercolour card and a tin of 12 Derwent Watercolour pencils!

All you need to do to be in with a chance of winning this great prize is visit each blog in order, and then go back to the Crafter’s Companion News Blog to leave your link on Mr Linky. Along the way you will notice that each Blog will give you a letter - make a note of these as they will make a word which we will ask you for if your number is drawn by Random.Org on Thursday 20th.

PLEASE DO NOT TELL US WHAT THE WORD IS ON THE CRAFTER’S COMPANION NEWS VIEWS AND INSPIRATION BLOG, WE WILL E-MAIL YOU FOR THE ANSWER IF YOUR MR LINKY NUMBER IS DRAWN.

Now onto my card which was made using papers and decoupage from the CD. This is my first ever decoupaged card. It isn't something I have ever fancied doing before but I was surprised how much I enjoyed making this card. I used another of my new MS deep border punches. I haven't seen this punch before. It was packaged as a holiday punch so had 40% off. I have no idea what it has to do with Christmas but was very happy with the price.

My letter is: W and your next stop on the hop is Lisa.

We hope you enjoy seeing the sneak peeks – thanks for hopping!
