The MIX IT UP Blog Hop: Day 1

 Hi and thanks for stopping by!  If you are here for the MIX IT UP Blog Hop, you should have come from Treasure Box Designs blog.  If you just happened across by blog and would like to hop with us, please go to Scraptastical Kreations blog to start at the beginning!
 Welcome to the first ever Scraptastical Kreations and Treasure Box Designs Mix it up blog hop! We’re super excited to be doing this hop together! Our intentions for this hop are to show you all how easy and fun it is to MIX UP your favorite files from 2 of your favorite paper piecing companies and use them TOGETHER on ONE project!  You will see some awesome projects using both Scraptastical Kreations and Treasure Box Designs paper piecing patterns.

We are offering an AMAZING grand prize to one winner. That one lucky hopper will win $100 in free paper piecing patterns; $50 from Scraptastical Kreations and $50 from Treasure Box Designs. How about that?? Isn’t that awesome!! All you have to do is leave a comment on every blog in this hop, become a fan of SK AND TBD on facebook.  Click HERE to get to the Scraptastical Kreations fan page and Click HERE to get to Treasure Box Designs fan page. Be sure to hop through the entire hop to be eligible for the grand prize, as well as all the other blog candy throughout!

We hope you all enjoy this hop and find a lot of great ideas, inspiration, and most of all have loads of fun!!

Hey y'all! I am the Admin and DT Lead for Scraptastical Kreations, and I MUST say it is the BEST job ever!! I am so excited to be part of this hop because if you ask me, you couldn't get a more talented group of ladies in one spot!  For my first project, I made a 1 page LO using parts of  TBD's Country Punkin Palace & the bears from SK's Our Little Pumpkin.  I had SO much fun creating this LO! And obviously, I am a few years behind on my personal scrapping, so it is always good to TRY and get caught up! LOL  I truly had a hard time choosing which files to use, as both companies have such amazing files to choose from! VERY talented people, they are!
 




NOW, for MY blog candy, I am offering a grab bag of goodies from my stash! All you have to do to have a chance to win is become a follower of my blog and leave me some love and head on over and "Like" my fan page CBC Scrapbooking and leave me a comment there saying you are from the hop! :) Be sure to hop thru BOTH days for an extra chance to win! :) I will announce the winner next week on my fan page!
Hope you all liked my project! Now you can head on over to Barbara's blog from TBD!
