Happy Birthday Auntie for Cardabilities!

All month long in January, Cardabilities is celebrating their birthday, but you get the presents! And today we're having a blog hop and would love for you to participate with us! There will be a new sketch presented every week for you to participate in. Each design team member is also having a RAK today, and that includes me too! My present for you is an adorable stamp set by Stampin' Up! that's a Level 1 Hostess set called Punch Potpourri. Every single image in this stamp set has a matching punch that you can use with it. I am only giving away the clear mount stamp set. All you have to do to be eligible for my RAK is to post your project of today's sketch to the Cardabilities Blog and link it to my blog as well using the Inlinkz below. You also have to become a Follower of my blog through Google listed on my sidebar. You will have until Monday, January 17, at noon to play in this challenge at which time I'll draw a winner from those who linked their card to my blog Inlinkz below and became a Follower of my blog and will announce it here shortly thereafter. I can only offer my prize to those residing in the United States only. Unfortunately, overseas shipping is just too expensive.

I'm going to show you a picture of my prize, the sketch, and then the card that I made for you for inspiration. It's a birthday card for my favorite auntie. Be sure to check out what the other design team members made for you and their prize so that you can visit them as well to see what they have to offer! Thank you so much for stopping by and have fun playing along in this great challenge and blog hop. God bless you and have a great weekend!

Your next stop on the blog hop will be to visit Holly Brown!
