Mint Motif Giveaway!

Hello, there!  Happy Friday…

We are getting ready to head to a lake for a week.  Will be meeting my in-laws there, along with my sister-in-law and her family.  They live in Africa, so we don't get to see them often.  Can't wait to see them in person instead of just in my prayers! We are all going, but Roxie has to stay here.  She will love life, as Grandpa will be staying at the house here with her.  Happy pup.

I will post from there, but I wanted to get a giveaway up before leaving. 🙂

So… a few weeks ago, I was shopping at iheartpapers and noticed a new line of stamps that I liked called Mint Motif.  I bought a set and loved them, especially since they are made in the US and therefore stamp great.

I then found out that they were designed by one of my favorite card artists,  Kimberly Crawford. And, being the kind person she is, she offered to send me sets to giveaway here.  What a doll.

First, I thought I would share a few cards I made with these stamps.  For the background on this one, I mounted all the square stamps on a big block and stamped them together.  Then stamped on red and punched out some hearts…

The orientation of these greetings is fabulous.

This one has a bit of Hero Arts love in the background.  The stars are stamped with the dotted square and then finished with Glossy Accent dots.

So… I have two sets to giveaway – one each to two lucky winners.  Just leave a comment here by Monday night at 11:59pmEST telling me your current favorite stamp line and I will pick winners.  Look at these lovely sets…

    Hi.. from right around the world in country South Australia – where it was -3 degrees C last night! I found your site 6 mths ago and have been loving it and am now a big Hero Arts fan, beautiful quality stamps. I have a renewed enthusiasm for my card making and crafting. These Mint Motif stamps are lovely but I especially like those vertical greetings as they work so well on your cards. Many thanks and regards and enjoy your summer!

    Oh…what can I say, my favorite stamps are Close To My Heart(for clear stamps), Penny Black, Hero Arts, Inkadinkado, Stampendous(for wood mounted rubber stamps) and specially for those outlined images that make me want to spend hours(if I could)just coloring. Love COPIC markers too>
    🙂
    Thank you again(again) for sharing joy and happiness through words and inspiration.

  47. Lillian Child says:

    My favorite line is Hero Arts – their stamps are ALL that AND a pound of butter!

  48. Laura Fitzgerald says:

    I am totally (still)loving Hero Arts…. the very first stamps I bought 10+ years ago were all Hero, and I still buy so much from them. The clean lines/modern designs that they have are to die for, and always on trend.

  49. Mary Jo says:

    I currently have two favorites……Hero Arts and Papertrey. Both have awesome quality. Love these Mint Motif stamps, I will have to check them out! Thanks for the give-away!

  50. PAM says:

    I love these stamp sets, and how you layered the patterned paper
    and ribbon trim on the star card. Very inspiring! Hero Arts still
    is my favorite stamp line, especially their clings, but these sets
    are wonderful, too. I especially like the word phrases and how they’re
    lined up…they can be used in so many different ways!

    Thanks,
    Pam
