Happy February with Holley's Blog!

Hello and Happy February everyone!  This is Holley from Holley's Blog and I am Happy to be celebrating this month.   I am sponsoring this month because I am celebrating my 12th year post brain surgery and I have a ton of prizes to giveaway.  Check it out on my blog for additional prize opportunities HERE!! We will be having a great contest here with several prizes!  

This month our contest is COFFEE theme!!

You may use any coffee theme stamps from any company and share your creations.  You may also use other drink theme stamps like Tea, chai, latte, cocoa, cider, pumpkin spice!!  We can't wait to see your creations.  You can see wonderful design team suggestions below.  This month you may enter as many COFFEE/drink theme cards as you want.

We also have a special sponsor: artist Sandra Caldwell of Babycakes DND on Etsy has made a special image just for this wonderful occasion.

her special COFFEE (or tea) theme image is this one, Celebrate with Holley #3795:

Isn't she a cutie?  there's a special contest using this stamp, you will win a prize package of multiple stamp sets (from various companies such as Hero Arts, Inkadinkado, Simon Says Stamp, Recollections, Bo Bunny--your prize pack is determined by the stamps you like, so it will be catered to your stamp choices).  There will also be digi stamp prizes from both Holley and Sandra!   If you get this stamp, you can also enter a card contest on Holley's Blog, starting on Feb 6th!!  Double your prize chances!

As ALWAYS, we will also have a random winner drawn from all our coffee/tea/drink entrants, that winner will get a digi stamp from Sandra Caldwell's store.

Let's start out with some wonderful cards from the Design Team using stamps from Sandra Caldwell.
