Purple Cows & HSN Extravaganza Blog Hop

PURPLE COWS & HSN EXTRAVAGANZA!

If you happened upon my blog by random you will want to go back to the Purple Cows Blog and start the hop at the beginning... there is a lot to see and all of us designers have been very busy creating with some amazing and fun tools. 

We are very excited about all the great new tools that Purple Cows has to offer and hope as you hop along you will get just as excited!


Tomorrow April 24th HSN will have the Pin It, Wind It and Punch It featured during the following shows 12am, 8am, 1pm, 2pm and 9pm EST.  We hope that you will turn to HSN or go to there site and pick up your favorites as HSN will have them for an unbeatable deal.

Today, I created an easy-peasy Congrats card using the Craft Geek Pin It tool! MY FAVORITE!!!
It's SOOOO easy to use, and adds just the right touch to your projects! The pins come in various colors and shapes too! In fact, the pin I used, is part of the Bells & Holly set, which is really a Christmas themed pin set. Those bells reminded me of wedding bells for this time of year, so here we go!

Place the base where you want your pin to be set and align the top (super easy, since it's magnetized)


Then I used my Craft Trimmer to trim the card base, and the wavy edge for the background paper. The patterned paper is by Momenta. Pop-dotted the sentiment banner along the bottom edge, and voila! Cute simple card to give or send!



Be sure to get in on the fun and be entered into the drawing for some amazing Purple Cows tools. All you have to do is leave a comment on each of the designer blogs as well as the Purple Cows blog. Follow Purple Cows or become a Fan on Facebook if you aren't already and share the hop info with your friends or sharing the Purple Cows Hop on your facebook page.
And now you should be on your way to Cristal's blog for some more Purple Cows fun!
