Seasons Givings Blog Hop + Giveaway



**This post will be pinned to the top of my blog until Saturday, January 7th, please scroll down for my other blog posts**


So thrilled to be part of Latisha's Seasons Givings Blog Hop for the 5th year!  You should have arrived from Vera Yates' blog!  I'm sure that Vera has some awesome eye candy for you!!!

If you didn't pop over here from Vera's, you'll want to start at the beginning of the hop which is the Lawn Fawn blog!  In case you get lost along the way, the entire hop listing is at the end of my post.

This is a thank YOU for my readers, for stopping by and saying hello!  Thank YOU for inspiring me.

First up, I thought I'd do a run down of my favorite projects I posted for 2016:




























Let's be honest, definitely more than 50% of my blog projects are coffee themed....

I've had some awesome opportunities in 2016.  I'm so thankful for them because they help me grow as a designer. 

I'm SUPER thankful for the awesome Coffee Loving Cardmaker's Design Team.  What an awesome group of designers💚  There's a wonderful community of Coffee Lovers in the Coffee Loving Papercrafters FB group.  The Paper Crafting community is filled with Magnificent people and I want to thank everyone that participates/sponsors the Coffee Lovers Blog Hops!

I thought I'd share my 2017 One Little Word:


I decided on Accomplish:



Accomplish for Q1: to organize and keep things organized in my craft room and spread it to the whole household.  I bought this for my Zigs (thanks for the inspiration Jess!) and THIS for my Copics.

I have some other plans/ideas brewing and I need to be diligent with the follow through...I always think that there aren't enough hours in the day, but there are...no excuses. 

Whew!  You've made it down this far!  I'm doing a giveaway to express my thanks for the support during 2016!


You'll receive all the products in the photo.  International Friends are welcome too!  Leave me a comment about what you want to work on in 2017.  Commenting will be open until Saturday, January 7th at 11:55 pm.  Are you a No-Reply Blogger?  Make sure you leave me an email address so that I can reach out to you or I will pick another winner.

Your next stop is Mary-Ann Maldonado!!!! 



Amy Tsuruta  💚

Hi Amy!
What I'll be working on in 2017 is pretty much keeping up with Design Team assignments, and then crafting just for fun when time allows. I also hope to get ALL my closets in the house organized. That's a BIG job as we all know. Your prize looks wonderful.
Have a blessed 2017.
Thanks for taking part.

Thank you so much for sharing your creativity and artistry; you inspire me so much. My crafting goal for 2017 is to try to create at least once a week. Doesn't seem like a lot but balancing work, my family, and taking care of my mom leaves little time for anything else but crafting freshens my soul so it's important.
Sandy M said…
Love the sentiment on your October post...nice design and color, too.

Thanks so much for participating.
I'm with you 100% on the coffee themes. There was a card I saw w a monter sitting in an easy chair drinking coffee and I cannot find that stamp to save my soul. If you know of it, please send me a link. It was really cute.
Happy New Year!

I like your word for 2017. In 2016. I got lost in the world of YouTube, blogs and online shopping, so for 2017, I want to use my acquired knowledge and materials to create and send cards regularly. Thanks for the opportunity to win such generous prizes. May you have a happy and prosperous 2017.

Love your cards and such a motivating word for the year. My focus is to choose/find joy...something I used to be much better at. Funny how moving can make you lose your bearings a bit, but I'm determined to find my way back.

HAPPY NEW YEAR! What a fun hop! Thank you for the chance to win such a great prize!

This year I am resolving to stamp more. I have already completed my other resolution, which was to catalog my Paper Smooches & Lawn Fawn stamp sets so I don't purchase the same one twice (again!). :)

Thank you for the inspiration. What I want to accomplish will apply to many aspects in my life. I want to be fearless...in being who I am, in expressing my own personal sense of style and creativity, in bringing happiness to those around my by being genuinely happy myself and most of all in showing unconditional love to all I interact with.
Kathy H said…
I too want to do more organizing even though it will take away from my crafting time.

My goal is to learn t use water colors and sprays. I've been afraid of the mess, but that's silly. So I'll try.
Kate B said…
Fun cards!! I'm going to try to craft more - making more time for it, using supplies I haven't used yet, and trying out different techniques. Thanks for the chance to win & happy new year!!
