Welcome to the Surprise Bloghop for Purple Onion Designs! I have always loved these stamps and today I have a special holiday project to share with you (and a sale)!  To celebrate this weekend, Purple Onion Designs is offering 25% off all stamps in the shop here. Oh, I love a good sale!

There’s also prizes, stay tuned to see the details at the end of this post.

This first card project I’m sharing features some of my favorite characters:

The penguin is Frost, that cute bunny is named Fawn, and I also used the Log and Tree (that comes in a set of three different trees). The sentiment is Holly Jolly.. I love the mix of script and plain text!

Here’s a closer look at just how sweet these characters are! Don’t they make you feel like smiling?

Next is a tag featuring my all time favorite happy owl!

This is Flora and she’s just so happy! I love to color this stamp during the holiday season just to feel a bit of that joy… I used some striped washi tape for a more festive feel.

And the last project features my all-time favorite Santa:

Isn’t he great!? He has such a kindness about him. I simply colored up Santa, added some Copic coloring, and some swirly snow with a white gel pen. Voila! That’s really all you need with this image because it is such a great size for a card (this is a regular A2 size: 4.25″ x 5.5″). Love it!

THE PRIZE:

In celebration of the hop, Sandy Allnock is giving away spots in a class of their choice to 3 lucky commenters along the bloghop – so be sure to comment everywhere! If the winner has already purchased a class during the current sale, that class fee can be refunded. Winner will be posted on Sandy’s blog on December 1, 2017. Good luck!
