Miss Ewe and Owly Hoo Stamp Set WINNER!!


Hi everyone and happy Thursday!! Wow, this week is flying by!! Before I announce the winner of the K Andrew Designs Owly Hoo stamp set, I have a project to enter into a few challenges today :)


I used Tim Holtz Idea-ology Kraft Paper (thanks again, Sabrina!!) for the base of the bag and cut it from Plantin Schoolbook using my Gypsy at 7.50" x 11.77".  The yellow and orange polka dot papers are from the DWCV Mango Frost Stack. I used Spellbinders Nestabilities Labels 4 and punched a hole on each end with my Crop-a-dile. I threaded jute twine through the holes to tie the label onto the bag.


The adorable ewe is from From My Kitchen, cut at 2" and flipped. I embossed her with the Sizzex swirls embossing folder to give her a fleecy look and attached all the layers together with foam tape for dimension.


The flowers are from Plantin Schoolbook and the button centers are a Sizzex die. I added some crystal gems in the centers.


The tag is also from Plantin Schoolbook and the buttons are from the same Sizzex die. Miss Ewe is from the brand new K Andrew Designs All About Animal stamps!! There are so many awesome sentiments on this stamp set!! I love them and couldn't wait to use them:


Click HERE to purchase your own stamps or to see the entire line of K Andrew Designs stamps!! I am entering this in the following challenges:
  1. Cooking With Cricut Challenge #70 - Anything but a card, use yellow and polka dots
  2. Paper Playtime Challenge #65 - Tag or use a tag on your project and a sentiment
  3. Die Cutting Divas Challenge #49 - Buttons, bows and/or bling

I was trying to make this fit several challenges and I kept in mind Diana's Thankful Thursday challenge at DL.Art... I used kraft paper, twine and flowers, as per her requirements, and then I got so caught up using the new stamps and the ewe, that I completely forgot the main requirement was for it to be a thank you card! So I can't enter it there...sorry, Diana!

Now to the winner of the K Andrew Designs Owly Hoo stamp set from the Getting Cricky Promo Week of Projects and U R So Sweet Blog Hop!! I want to sincerely thank all of you who stopped by - some of you every single day!! I truly appreciate each of you and I wish I could send you all a stamp set!! I also want to thank those of you that took the time to earn extra entries into the drawing!! I appreciate it so much!!


After I counted all the comments for the six days, plus all of the extra chances, there were over 600 entries!! That was a lot of cutting!! I took the name of the person plus the day the comment was left and printed them out...


And the winner is..........................................................................................................



Congratulations, Karen!! I will send you an email for your address, or you can reach me at indymermaid(at)gmail(dot)com!!

Thank you all again for following me and for leaving such sweet comments!! They mean so much to me!! Be sure to stop back by tomorrow when I will announce the winner of the paper pack and matching flowers from the Blends Join Hands Blog Hop!! :)

Congratulations, Karen! Enjoy your new stamps! :o)

Lisa, this is such a sweet bag! :o) I love the polka dot layers and that precious fleecy sheep! The googly eye is perfect.. she's keeping a close on the one she misses! The button and flowers are lovely, as are the jute twine accents. I love how you can even make a bag sweet enough to hug. :o) Beautiful work, my dear friend!

Hugs and blessings!

Awesome! I love that sheep (she's one of my favorite cuts on My Kitchen - isn't that weird?), and her google eye just cracks me up (they always do!). The colour combo you used here is perfect - so calming and yet cheery at the same time.

Thanks so much for sharing your creation with us at CWC this week. I always love seeing your take on the challenges. :)
