Welcome to the first ever Crop Circles blog hop!! We are a group of ladies who share ideas and inspiration on all kinds of scrappy projects. Most of us are either Newfoundlanders or have a link to the Island. We thought we would share our inspiration with you and have decided to use a sketch from Sketchbook365 to showcase our many different styles. You have until end of day March 3rd to complete this hop. For every comment you leave along the way your name will be entered to win a Stampin’ Up! bundle valued at $75! You’ll also have chances to win some blog candy along the way from individual bloggers. And I’m one of those bloggers so make sure you leave a comment here! contest is now closed

Here’s my take on the sketch:

Lots of flicked white and shimmer mist:

And of course, twine again, but with brads instead of eyelets this time:

Some real and some faux stitching:

And layers of lovely goodness:

Remember, you have three days to complete the hop and your name is entered to win the grand prize for every comment you leave along the way! Plus, you have a chance to win some Tim Holtz / Ranger blog candy here if you comment! contest is now closed.

Also, this sketch is the March Challenge on the Scrapbook365 blog and it’s open until March 15 so you should play along and maybe win a prize over there too! Leave me a link in the comments if you use it – I’d love to see what you do.

For now, hop along to Lori and give her some love!
