Wow... I can't believe there have been 100 TCP Tuesdays! That's pretty amazing! Thanks to all who have participated and supported TCP Tuesdays... 100 of them is quite an accomplishment! And to celebrate, the TCP Cat Pack is holding a blog hop with not one TCP challange but FOUR! Hopefully you started at Leigh's blog and have made your way through the hop and arrived at my little space from Toni's blog. If not, head on back to the start because you won't want to miss all the fantastic challenges and the fun cards being posted today!
So Toni and I are hosting the 'Inspiration Challenge' and Toni has choosen this lovely table runner as our inspiration piece. I love it! I can never tire of polka-dots and the colors are bright and fun. As soon as I saw it, I knew exactly what I was going to create!
I recently purchased a large polka-dot embossing folder from Quikutz and couldn't wait to use it. I love how the embossing turned out! I gave the white-core orange cardstock a bit of a 'scuff' with some sandpaper to get those dots to show up a bit better and used the cake/phrase images from one of my favorite TCP clear stamp sets 'You Say It's Your Birthday'. I love this birthday set and use it a ton... And I'm happy to report that the recipient of this card was very pleased and appreciated it very much. :)
Of course no celebration goes without some goodies right? And in honor of the numerous challenges we have going on this Tuesday, there are more chances to win with each challenge you participate in! Just post your finished challenge creations on Alma's guestbook. The person with the most number of entries uploaded by Monday, March 15th at noon PST will be announced as our winner on March 16th! (In case of a tie, the winner will be picked at random among those with the highest number of entries.) The winner will win seven (yes, SEVEN) of the clearly swanky stamp sets featured in the blog hop as well as some of Alma's personal favorite goodies!
So come on... that's a prize worth playing for right? And you have all week to create, create, create, and or course, don't forget to upload! Now, on to the last challange which is being hosted by Amy and Ana... Have fun!
