Ring in the New Year with a blog hop!!

Thanks for visiting my much neglected blog! A goal of mine is to post on here more regularly! I have something fun to start the New Year off with...a blog hop!!!


Welcome to the My Scraps and More "Ring In the New Year Blog Hop"!! There is something about the New Year that gets everyone motivated to get things done. We want to help you get your scrappy mojo going in the New year. This is our first ever Blog Hop for the My Scraps and More Sketch Blog. Here is our special blog hop sketch...


I used my favorite birthday line of all time from Crate Paper to play with this sketch...




I loved how the sketch let me showcase so many of the great patterned papers in the collection without taking away from the picture itself! I am offering up a special rak to you just for visiting my blog during this hop! Leave me a comment and become a follower of my blog and you will go in the drawing to win! I will announce a winner January 10th!! 

Now that you have hopped around to all of the design team members blogs and saw what they did with the sketch, it is your turn to play! Once you have created your layout inspired by this sketch, link it up on the sketch blog here by January 9th at midnight to be eligible for the blog hop prize of the Fancy Pants Collecting Moments line!

Here is the order of the hop in case you got lost along the way.

Great layout and use of all the patterns. Love the scrabble tile title. You are like me and not waste anything. Love the 2 thin strips of paper you used under picture and to the right. I've been known to use the tear strips of the paper. LOL
Loved the blog hop and the sketch, now ready to start to scrapping with it.
