Julia’s 10K Video Blog Hop - Congrats Julia!!


Hello everyone,

Long time no see, but I'm back for at least this one post. Life has gotten its take, and I haven't really have time for crafting for long time now. I've missed crafting, but I have to admit that I have really enjoyed summer time and outdoors with my girls.



Today I have a very special reason to make card, my dear online friend Julia from One more card, is having her birthday today and I really would love to wish her the most beautiful birthday. Julia has the most enjoyable youtube channel - I know if I'm down or just having bad day, I usually go and watch one of her tutorial. I just love her sense of humour and her tutorials are also so informative!

We are having a bloghop to celebrate Julia's birthday and her Youtube channel. If you came from super talented and nice Michelle Short's blog, you are on a right track. If you wish to start from the beginning, please start from Julia's blog.

I know Julias loves simple design, so I tried to keep it simple. I have to admit, I haven't touched my copics or pencils since early May, I have to admit I am a bit rusty, but I enjoyed my time crafting and I hope you like my very simple card.



PRIZES

Anyone can be a winner! Everyone who leaves a  comment by July 31 midnight enters into the drawing, and the winners will be announced August 1 on Just One More Card . There will be a total of 13 prizes up for grabs.







GET HOPPING


Next on the hop is amazingly talented Nichol Magouirk, I also list all the talented ladies here as well for your convenience


Thanks for stopping by today. I hope you are having a great day!
