Anything but a Card Blog Hop!

Hello and good morning! 

It's time for the November Blog Hop over on the DeNami blog. I must say, I was SUPER excited about this theme- there were so many different options! The hard part? Deciding what exactly I wanted to create!  After going back and forth for quite some time, I finally decided on a birthday tin to hold a gift card.

If you started from the beginning of the hop, you should be coming from Barbara Murphy's blog. This lady always has super adorable creations- you'll definitely want to be sure you follow her blog. :)

Okay, now onto my creation.....


I went with some super bright and happy colors. After all, birthdays ARE a time for happiness, right? 

I got a whole bunch of these tins a while back (if you'd like some, I'm actually selling a few in my "for sale" section) They are great for all sorts of things! 


I brought out the new Brushed Present as my focal point. The fun thing about this stamp- you can cut off the top and look like the present is open! I thought it'd be cute to have little hearts come out of it, but you could do other things as well! 


Well, my dear friends, this is the last stop on the blog hop. After you leave a comment here (remember, we randomly pick comments from blogs as winners!), be sure to head over to the DeNami blog and leave a comment there as well. 

I hope that you were greatly inspired by the hop. Thanks so much for hopping along with us!
