Whimsy Stamps New Release Snowball Fight!! (Blog Hop)



Hello and happy Sunday friends!!  Are you ready for a fun Whimsy Stamps style snowball fight?!!
If you are stopping here from Janna's blog, then you are in the RIGHT place to dodge another snowball!! LOL!!  However, if you are just starting out, please start at the beginning of the snowball fight  HERE!

Today we are introducing another brand new Crissy Armstrong collection called the Snickerdoodle Kids!  How cute is that name?!!  These stamps are available for purchase in the store TODAY and I'm sure you've already seen lots of gorgeous designs along the way!! :)  I get the pleasure today of showing you the fun Sledding with Marty and Max image!!  Take a look at this really fun image...




I thought what a better way to show this image than with him getting ready to sled down a hill!?  So I made a stair step creation and drew some curvy lines, covered them with glitter and attached to the back of the folds for some fun snow hills to play on!  Lots of felt snowflakes and brads to add to the fun as well!  I also took the pile of snowballs from the Ready, Set Duck! image to place on one of the hills!!  The sentiment is from the Whimsy Winter Words set and I also borrowed the small snowflake from the Whimsy Reindeer image!  It looks like he's getting ready to crash into someone's snowball fort or something!! LOL!!

 Would you like to know what you could win?!!
We will draw one random winner  to receive a $50 gift certificate to shop at Whimsy Stamps and there will be three random DT members that pick from their comments to give away one of the new stamps from the Snickerdoodle Kids Collection!!!




How awesome is that?!!  So please be sure to leave a comment on EVERY blog along the way so that you don't get left out of any prizes available!! :)  This "snowball fight" will end this Saturday, January 30th at noon (EST) and the winners will be announced after that time.  That is one long snowball fight!!

*WINGS OF HOPE *
Also, if you haven't checked out the badge on my sidebar for the wonderful cause of helping the disaster in Haiti, be sure you check out the stunning image that Crissy Armstrong and Denise have teamed up together to make in helping out with a relief fund donating to the Red Cross charity called Wings of Hope.  It is just gorgeous!  You can see the creation I made with it HERE.  And there are some other GORGEOUS creations made by the talented Whimsy design team on a slide show on the Whimsy Home Page HERE.

Now, to keep on moving to see who gets hit with the snowball next, you'll need to check out the lovely & talented Debbie to see what she has for you!! :)....coming right at ya Debbie!!.....

Thanks so much for joining us today and stopping by!! Hope you have fun!!
