Today I am sponsoring the blog hop and talented design team over at Ashley Newell Cannon's spectacular blog, {: Embellish Magazine :}, which goes with her online magazine (same name, coincidentally!). Both are so professionally and beautifully created. The challenge theme is birds and if you go over there and play along, you have a chance to win a gift certificate from me to anything in The Angel Company catalogs. Each design team member worked with a different bird set from The Angel Company and they are featuring different papers from our collections...I think you will be thrilled!
I decided to play along too, and I thought this bird from the All Things of Nature set would go perfectly with my Tim Holtz bird cage die. This card features the new double sided paper collection, Emma, and I was tickled to see that not only is the cardstock double sided, but that the tags are too - and with a different pattern! It's wonderful that the Soar With it Collections come with matching Bazzill cardstock, ribbon and hardware...
Card Materials: all stamps and papers from The Angel Company
Accessories: Emma Soar with it Collection and cardstock, prismacolored pencils and gamsol, Tim Holtz die, sponges, pearls from Michaels
On my blog I will have a second prize available...owls are birds too, right?! Of sorts!
You have a chance to win this sweet sayings set plus a variety of owls from our two sets, Artsy Owls and Be Square. You'll also get this package of Angelee papers that will make a cute little tag book or be perfect for a card or two.
Simply leave me a comment before August 12, that's when the other contest closes, for a chance to win! So...are you a bird fan or not?!?

Best to you!
