Core'dinations and Tombow blog hop

Monday, August 12, 2013


Hello and welcome to day 1 of the Core'dinations and Tombow joint blog hop! All this week both companies will have lots of inspiration for you and some great prizes up for grabs too! You should have arrived here from Debbie's blog. Here are my creations for today! I used some Core Impressions My Mind's Eye Lost and Found and Core Impressions Basic Grey Ornate Collection from Core'dinations sanded with the Sand-It Gadget. I used the Stamp Runner from Tombow to adhere my cardstock.


The sentiment stamp is from Circle It from The Craft's Meow, I did a little fussy cutting and I used some 3D Foam Tabs from Tombow to add some dimension. The Core Tag I embossed with Mini Rays embossing folder from Sizzix.


For my second card I used some more cardstock from My Mind's Eye Lost and Found and I also used some Core Spotted Jillian Dot and Core Essentials Neutrals from Core'dinations.


I used another Core Tag that I embossed with Seeing Spots embossing folder and I used the same stamps as in the previous card. Below is the prize package that is up for grabs from Core'dinations.


Here are the prizes on offer from Tombow - New Power Tabs, New Foam Tabs, New Fastener Tabs and the Mono Glue Pen! (Prizes are subject to availability).


A random winner will be picked from commenting on each blog all week long (Monday -Thursday). Don't forget to 'like' the Core'dinations Facebook page and the Tombow Facebook page too! Next up on the hop is Gail. Enjoy the rest of the hop and good luck!
