Season’s Greetings! ** Chances to Win!
You read it correctly! You have chances to win … free stamps! And of course, my card today is wishing all of you, ‘Season’s Greetings!’
Have you noticed the new Our Craft Lounge button over in the left column of my blog? Well, it takes you directly to the OCL Thankful for You promotion. There, you’ll discover just how many easy chances you have to win stamps from Our Craft Lounge. Ohhhhh …. this promotion continues on until the end of the year, so seriously, I know you’ll want to check it out … and if you win … I definitely want you to come back to Savor the Journey to let me know what you won~!! (Please??!!) 😉
Now of course, since this is Friday, we have the weekly OCLDT sketch for you as well! I’ve chosen the awesome, tradional Santa stamp from the “Ole St. Nick” stamp set. Although I started out with a more subtle color combo in mind, you can see that I actually ended up in a more traditional color scheme. Ahhhhhh, the beauty of stamping & paper-crafting … always involved with change & flexibility.
Santa’s cuffs, and coat edging are all fluffed up with OCL’s Sparkly Fluff (Sugar). His beard is courtesy of Liquid Applique + OCL’s Crafty Sparkles (also Sugar). The “bricked” background is from a Tim Holtz Alterations folder, smudged with white pigment ink. (I always wondered just ‘how’ Santa got to my childhood tree … as we had ‘no’ bricked fireplace!!) Thankfully, my own children & Grands have never had to ask that question of me. Whew!!!
I hope you’ll take advantage of the many opportunities to win stamps from Our Craft Lounge! Just by checking out the OCL Blog and contributing an entry for this week’s sketch challenge, you’re entered for the monthly stamp set prize. That’s not even a part of the new “Thankful For You” promotion that I’ve mentioned earlier. 😉
Thanks so much for checking in today … I hope you’ve found some sweet inspiration, as well as reasons to check out the winning possibilities. Happy Days ahead to each of you!!
