A Little Announcement and a Blog Hop

Welcome to the Quietfire Design Spring Blog Hop!

Quietfire Design is celebrating the honor of being chosen as a Preferred Stamp Partner with Spellbinders™ Paper Arts!  All of the Design Team was over the moon with the news and so, here we are to celebrate!!  Over the coming months you’ll have to keep an eye out for new stamps designed to match those wonderful Spellbinders dies.  The celebration includes a week long look at some of the truly elegant stamps that Quietfire is known for.  Suzanne pens all the sentiments by hand.  Her flourishes and pen strokes are amazing,  I’m simply tickled to pieces for her :-)


Here’s How to Win:
Each day a different Quietfire Designer will post their amazing creations combining Quietfire rubber stamps and Spellbinders products in a blog entry (days and links to each blog below).  Simply comment on their Quietfire Blog Hop post by midnight EST and you will be eligible to be chosen in a daily random draw.

Prizes:
Every day a lucky participant will win one of the Quietfire Rubber stamps used that day plus Suzanne’s choice of Spellbinders™ die!  The prizes will be sent out directly from Quietfire Design.

Deadlines:
The deadline for commenting on this prize is Midnight EST on Sunday, April 3rd.  The winner for this prize will be announced here on my blog on Monday, April 4th.  The winner will claim their prize by reaching out to me though the Contact tab at the top of my blog within 48 hours.  After 48 hours, we’ll draw another name!

I selected a new stamp that I haven’t shown yet called What You Leave Behind.  Although it can be used as a sympathy sentiment I think I’m more prone to use it in my scrapbooking and as a reminder that legacy building begins while you are here – that’s what it means to me anyways.   It’s a beautifully penned sentiment.   I picked some distressed looking papers from My Minds Eye that had a punch of red glitter and created a frame using Spellbinders Labels Sixteen and Spellbinders Fleur de Lis Squares.  The remainder of the card is built on a base of Spellbinders Grand Large Labels and Spellbinders Grand Labels Eleven

SUPPLIES I USED
Stamps: Quietfire Design – What You Leave Behind
Paper: My Minds Eye, Bazzill
Ink: Versafine Onyx Black
Accessories: Spellbinders Grand Large Labels, Spellbinders Grand Labels Eleven, Spellbinders Labels Sixteen, Spellbinders Fleur de Lis Squares, Paper Studio Brad, Ribbon, Lace, Recollections Gems, clear embossing powder

    What a beauty! I appecriate the verse – a couple of weeks ago I lost a dear Uncle. It is so true. The verse would also be comforting for a card for those still left behind (his wife and children) who are still adjusting to life without him.ReplyCancel

  • SoniaApril 3, 2011 - 8:16 am

    Once again a beautiful card. I absolutely love this sentiment! I do not yet have any Quietfire Stamps but this will have to be one of the first I get. I have looked at them a few times but always have a hard time deciding which ones to get. Well, I now have a starting point. I do love how they so often catch the moment.ReplyCancel

  • Lesli FieldsApril 3, 2011 - 8:17 am
