Celebrate the Simple Moments + A Giveaway!

Hi Everyone!  I’m SO excited to share some twiney inspiration with you today! This project is also being showcased on the Twinery’s Blog today, so be sure to visit them for the complete project and come back here to enter the giveaway!

 {click to enlarge any of the photos}

I used Maraschino and Lemondrop Twine throughout the album. I also used “Simple Joys” by Market Street Stamps and Echo Park’s “For the Record” collection. LOVE that paper!!

Here are a few peeks:

Isn’t that Blackboard album (by Cosmo Cricket) awesome?? I just love it – use your Gelly Roll pens for a true “black board” effect – looks great with Cloud White Versamagic chalk ink, too!!

Giveaway!

Because I’m the boss(y) lady over at Market Street Stamps, I’d love to give away a set of the stamps I used in today’s project. Yep, one lucky person will win an entire set of “Simple Joys” (valued at $19.50) PLUS a set of their choice (valued up to $19.50 – that means a total value of up to $41)!

    OK, here’s my first entry: I counted 14 photos of the project. But then there were 10 individual photos on the pages of the project, and some had closeups, so that’d be 14 total. So maybe the answer is 14 or maybe it’s 24 or maybe it’s 28. My favorite stamp set is Chillaxin.

  145. Katie B. says:

    I love the sets Homegrown, Cheap Talk, Punched Tin (background), and the one you used which is awesome, Simple Joys.
