The winner will be announced on the Heartfelt Creations Blog and Facebook Page on Wednesday, August 30th. The winner should contact Heartfelt Creations at socialmedia@heartfeltcreations.us with "Winner of the August Alumni Hop" in the subject line.
The blog hop is now closed. The winner was chosen from my blog and is....
HELEN BUDZ!
You should be coming to my blog from Vicki Dutcher's Blog. After visiting me, head on over to Deneen Treble's Blog. For a list of the Alumni Blogs, see the end of the post.
For most of the USA, the end of August marks the end of summer. Not so here in southern CA, but I still think of fall as coming on September first! We will have weeks and weeks of warm and hot weather here, with no true autumn in sight! Since I want to celebrate the end of summer, I decided to color up some juicy strawberries! This stamp is soon to retire, so if you want it, grab it fast - Blooming Berries Cling Stamp Set.
The image is colored with Copic markers (see the list in the supplies below).
I added a sentiment with the Heartfelt Sentiments Cling Stamp Set. I added some printed paper from the Peacock Paisley and Butterfly Medley Collections.
Thanks for hopping by! Hop on over to Deneen Treble's Blog next. DON'T FORGET...POST A COMMENT FOR YOUR CHANCE TO WIN A $25 GIFT CARD TO HEARTFELT CREATIONS!
