Scrapbook Circle BLOG HOP and *GIVEAWAY*-popcorn chain

The creative team at Scrapbook Circle is ending the year with a bang! We are hopping along and you can win a All Is Bright December kit from Scrapbook Circle. Each Creative Team member is giving away a kit on their blog. That's right — 12 chances to win! We are celebrating the holiday season and YOU get the gifts!

You should have come to my blog from Adrienne Alvis' blog . You can also start at the Scrapbook Circle blog to make sure you stop back by there to see the full hop list and get some more details.

So here's a look at one of the pages I made with the December " All Is Bright" kit!   I have a ton of Christmas photos from last year that I still had to scrap, so this kit was just perfect for me to dig into that pile.  I didn't know how my daughter was going to do with using a needle and thread in making this popcorn chain, but she was really careful and did surprisingly well!


On my background, I cut some green paper and an angle and punched the edge with a branch punch to make it look like a tree.  I added another punched strip under it to give a bit more layers.  Then I splattered some bright green mist on it.


I cut some circles out of the star transparency and then painted the back side of it with a little white paint to make it stand out a bit more.  And I just LOVE the gold alphas that are in the kit!!  (The other glittery ones are from an older SBC kit, maybe July?)



 Finally, I spent some time arranging all of the buttons and chipboard elements from the Fancy Pants buttons set.  I strung them along with some stickers from Studio Calico and some tags and other bits from Elle's Studio.  I wanted to play up the garland theme on my page, and I love the way it came out!




Your next stop on the hop is the lovely and talented (and one of my IRL scrapping buddies!), Sara Zenger! Keep hopping, leaving comments as you go, so you have up to 12 chances to win the December kit, All Is Bright,  from Scrapbook Circle. Good Luck!  Winners will be announced Thursday on the Scrapbook Circle blog!  You have until midnight Dec. 3rd to comment.

And here is the lovely December 'All Is Bright' kit that you could win!!!
