Hello Friends! To celebrate the new year, I am joining in on a fantastic blog hop to say a big THANK YOU to all of you blog readers out there. Without you visiting my blog and leaving such fantastic and encouraging comments, it would be no fun to share my projects! This is a very big blog hop list but remember every single blog will be giving away a prize - including me!
Here is my prize!
I am not listing the prize package contents just yet because I am still waiting for some goodies from a couple of the companies I do design work for!! It's going to be a great prize package!!
I will be leaving my contest open until January 7 at Midnight (central time). Just leave me a comment telling me a bit about yourself - like what type of crafting do you do, leave a link to your blog (if you have one) and where do you live - to be eligible to win my prize!
To those that are new to my blog, I wanted to share one of my favorite projects from this last year. It includes a video tutorial showing how to create this card!
Here is the video showing how I created this Blazing Poppy Thank You Card!
Here is your Season's of Giving 4 blog hop list.......I know it's long but remember, every stop on the list is giving away a prize! So start hopping!

Happy New Year...love being creative, sewing is my all time favorite but card making is a close second.
Posted by: Kim Heggins | January 01, 2016 at 01:21 AM
Happy New Year and hope it is a great one for you. My name is DonnaJeanne and I live in New Middletown, Ohio. I use to cut, sand, and paint on wood and sell at craft shows,and then discovered card making and gave up the other crafts--except for a lady who started me making her grandkids ornaments at Christmas each year and has been 18 years now and went from 1 to 19 for her and then make for my grandkids also. Card making has won out as love this and people like you willing to share with us what you have learned. Big thanks to you---Hugs, donnaJeanne

Loved your card and the video! I'm definitely going to get some Strathmore mixed media paper! That sounds like the solution to my problems!
TFS!

I do knit, crochet and jewelry making. I'm looking to branch out. I'm from the US.

Love your site and love Heartfelt Creations stamps and paper pads. I live in a small town on the coast in Oregon and I have a group of friends that we get together and make cards and enjoy the day together. I have 8 grandchildren 4 boys (17 -5 years) 4 girls (23 - 9 years old) and every single one of them have made cards with me. When we go on our camping trips I always bring card kits for them and their friends to do and they love it. Nothing like getting them started early. Everyone loves to get a homemade card and my family saves everyone I have made for them. Cardmaking makes me happy.
Posted by: Gail Common | January 01, 2016 at 02:38 AM
Yes, Debbie, I agree with your "favorites" pick...Love that card too. I love stamping, quilting and decorating cookies...oh, and playing around with photography...Thanks for always inspiring through your beautiful cards! :)

My name is Lisa Pulley. I live in DeSoto, Mo. You had your haircut in March and my aunt was so excited to meet you that she called me while I was in FL. My husband lost his father 2 years ago & since that time we have enjoyed traveling, when my work schedule permits. I drive a school bus. Our trips may times are planned around scrapbook stores that I find on a Facebook group (Traveling Crafters) I belong to. I enjoy making cards for a non profit organization, Card Care Connection. They send cards to ancer patients upon referral. I do this in memory of my mom (who we lost to ovarian cancer in 2010 & a very special aunt I lost in 2011). I try making 20 cards a month plus the postage for them. I also enjoy making scrapbooks. Although my progression is somewhat slower on them. I have done a scrapbook of my middle son's senior year, 2 softball books of my daughter's high school softball experience, a book of my daughter in law'sengagement & prewedding adventure. We have our first grandchild due in May, so there will be a book for that baby as well. My daughter was an
RAWwhile in college, so I got to help her with her many door decorations. Was always excited to help. I enjoy paper crafting things I find on the internet. So I would would find plenty of uses for your giveaway. I have no blog at this time.
Posted by: Lisa Polley | January 01, 2016 at 08:35 AM
Your card is so pretty. Thanks for the video. I hope to acquire some of those makers in 2016. I live in Canton, OH. I do have a blog, but it is inactive for now. I have been making cards for over 20 years and never get tired of it!

Happy new year Debbie! I'm a cardmaker but I do enjoy mixed media, altered art and a little DIY. My cardmaking style is classic with touches of shabby chic or vintage. Would love it if you could stop by the blog: http://goo.gl/5phEzR Thanks for the lovely giveaway. Best wishes on 2016.

Hi Debbie!
I am a cardmaker and these days I do mostly digital stamps. My style varies with my mood, but I tend not to use a lot of layers ( to keep the costs down)
I have enjoyed you cards around the web for quite a while!
I live in Michigan

Beautiful cards! I love to scrapbook, its what Ido most of the time. But I also enjoy making cards, mostly holiday cards for the ladies in my bowling league. There is a much neglected art journal in my scrapping desk that needs to be pulled out again.
I live in New Braunfels. TX where it FINALLY feels like winter. We even have a fire in the fireplace today.

Oh Debbie, your card is just stunning. I have to say I JUST recently got the 48 pk. of the Zig Color Brush Pens and they really are a dream to work with. I also have to add that (although I only have one set) the Heartfelt Creations stamps are probably the most elegant stamps I've ever seen AND they stamps beautifully! I live in Nova Scotia and although I have a LOT of hobbies, card making has rose to the top of the list! I am the grandmother of two little boys (2 & 4) and I am over the moon in love with them!
Happy New Year and thanks for the chance to win!

Happy New, New Year. I have been paper crafting since 2002. Went to a Stampin' Up! party and I was hooked when I saw embossing for the first time :) I am a card maker, mixed media, polymer clay, stained glass and dabble in jewelry making. I have always loved any kind of creative outlet. I live in Brooklyn, WI and have a great studio in my basement. I am currently enjoying Heartfelt Creations, Graphic 45, and Create-a-Scene dies. There is always something new to try and I love classes and learning new techniques. I have gained so many kind, creative, friends since I starting working with paper that it would be impossible to give it up. Thanks for the great giveaway and, as always, your projects.
Posted by: Linda K | January 01, 2016 at 07:25 PM

the poppies are beautiful. One of my favorite flowers.
I make greeting cards. I'm not into frou-frou. Love csrds that are more fun than serious. I only scrapbook after I've been on a vacation that needs a keepsake (safari to Africa, trip to ireland,....) I read a lot.
I'm a widow so I can keep my own hours. I've been lucky to have good health and can do what I want when I want. I'm hoping that will continue into 2016.

Hi Debbie, I live in North Carolina and it looks like winter has finally arrived. It's cold here today after a pretty warm December. I have been crafting for about 8 years now. I make cards and have begun to make other projects as well -- party favors, framed pictures, gift boxes and bags, etc. I love crafting! Thanks for all your inspiration this past year. Wishing you a happy and blessed 2016!
Posted by: Beverly Perdue | January 02, 2016 at 11:46 AM
Your card is beautiful!! LOVE the brilliant reds!!
My name is Barb and I am from a little town in Vermont called Williamstown. Unfortunately there are no other die hard crafters in my area so I spend most of my crafting time alone or with my 3 year old granddaughter! She has been creating with me since she was able to stand on a stool at my work island and is learning lots of new things every day!
I taught a card making class at the local elementary school (4/5 graders) and Jenna (granddaughter) had to go with me. She was teaching the kids how to work the die cutting machine and showing them the proper way to clean stamps! The kids and teachers were shocked at how much she knows! I was bursting with pride of course!
I am homebound and rarely go anywhere so that was a special treat for me too! I paid for it for a week or so but it was worth it to see the kid's faces when they created beautiful cards for their friends and families!
Would love to win the awesome prize package because I spied a few things that are on my wish list!!! :-) Happy New Year!

Posted by: Nikki | January 02, 2016 at 12:36 PM
Hello Debbie,
Great card. Love the way the layering is done with the border between the layers. The colors are so vibrant and realistic and just absolutely love it! I live inLexington KY. Great sunny day today but don't let that fool you....IT'S COLD! Oh darn, guess I will have to stay in and scrap....again! :)
I have been scrapping for about 12 years now and just do not have enough hours in a day to do all I would like to do. I have a full time job building cars so by the time I am done I really do not have much time left for fun.
I enjoy making cards, ornaments and working on glass block. I combine a Cricut machine, stamping, and die cutting for most of my creations. Just love it all. I have made the invitations for two weddings, make all my Christmas cards every year and I love to do that....It's nice to hear everybody's comments when they receive them...or when they tell me they can't wait till Christmas to see what I create next. Just so rewarding to get such nice comments from everybody.
I love to craft because even though it takes long hours sometimes to create one or two things it's well worth it. Not only for the grateful comments you receive but also for the relaxation you get while doing it.
I love the fact of going into my room to start a creation and seeing what the final result is. Everytime I think I'm going in with a certain idea it always takes many turns and by the time I'm finished it's something totally different than what I originally thought. LOVE IT!
I do not have a blog. however I can always be reached at lesshafftlisa@yahoo.com. I love Pinterest and Facebook because I can always see everybody's creations! Thank you for this chance to win a prize but mostly for the opportunity to see what other people see in crafting, why they do it and so fourth.

I'm very ditzy! : ) It was after this hop last year that I started doing more crafting and later in the year started a blog at dannscraftingwhims.wordpress.com with the tag line of 'crafting where the whim takes me' I do mostly cards, but some mixed media, jewelry, wire wrapping, beading, crochet, photography... you get the idea. Thanks for the chance to win your already terrific prize and more!

I live in North Carolina. I have been doing mostly scrapbooking and trying to learn more about card designs. I mostly need the time to sit down to be creative. Thanks for the great prize package.

Love the poppy card - so pretty! I live in Kentucky and have been doing paper craft for several years and enjoy it very much. I also enjoy reading. Best wishes for the new year!

A very Happy New Year to you. I started stamping and making cards in 1996 and have never looked back. I do have a blog where I share my work and since you asked, I live in beautiful, snowy Ontario, Canada. Thank you for offering such a wonderful prize, so very generous. Cheers.

Beautiful card. I started carding with a Stampin up group, but then fell in love with mixed media and art journaling. I'm still learning, but love the freedom to be creative! I live in Mass and am awaiting our first snow storm!

Lately I've been a card maker and DIYer, but I really need to get back to scrapbooking as my boys love to look through their boosk!

Your card is beautiful! I live in Arizona and I love all things creative. I scrapbook (but not enough) make cards, and this past year I've been dabbling in all kinds of mixed media altered items etc whenever I have a chance. I need to quit my job...lol.... Thanks for being a part of this hop!

My name is Carol and I live in La Crosse, WI, a city on the Mississippi River. I mostly do card making, but also enjoy scrapbooking. Every Christmas I make ornaments for my children and grandsons. Many years ago I had a small wood crafting business. I don't have a blog of my own. Maybe someday when I am retired. :-)
You have a very SPECIAL talent! Love your coloring. I have never gotten very good at that, although if I had the right tools, I would probably be better.
Thank you for participating in this FANTASTIC blog hop! I love seeing all the talent out there.
HAPPY NEW YEAR to you and Happy Crafting in 2016!

Your card is so beautiful! Thanks for listing the video as well. Thanks for all of your inspiration and have a Happy New Year.

What a lovely card. I am a new paper-crafter, mostly cards for my family and friends. I also like to do some beaded jewelry, and love it when it comes out well. I think I was a grandmother before I really began to appreciate the process of what I do more than the end result, so I have a whole pile of card fronts that will probably never make it to the mail, and I have re-strung beads multiple times when I decided I needed to switch up the order! Thanks so much for the inspiration, as well as a chance to try some products I haven't seen before
