Ribbon Carousel Birthday Blog Hop

Hey everyone! It's the Ribbon Carousel's 2nd Birthday today and we are celebrating with a Blog Hop! This is no ordinary Blog Hop. We are giving away over $750 in prizes....there is candy at EVERY stop!  It's our way of saying THANK YOU for all of your support these past two years!


Here are the RC Birthday Blog Hop details:
Between now and Saturday, May 4 at 11:59pm EST, visit each of the Ribbon Carousel Crewmate's blogs listed below and leave a comment. We'll draw a winner from the comments on EACH Crewmates blog using Random.org and announce the winners on Monday, May 5. So the more blogs you visit, the more chances of winning!

And that's not all, Corinna will be giving away prizes on the Ribbon Carousel Facebook Fan Page each day, so be sure to visit!

This is a pretty long hop, so I'm going to keep it short and sweet.  My card features the Party Dots stamp set from Neat & Tangled.  Incidentally, Neat & Tangled is the sponsor on my blog.  One of you lucky hoppers will win the stamp set of your choice!



I love this set, and used the large circle image as well as the border stamp to create a cosmic scene which was embossed in silver. 


The sentiment is from Waltzingmouse, and I added a little bit of American Crafts glitter tape at the bottom.  Pretty clean and simple, but fun and not your ordinary birthday card.

OK, I don't want to keep you, there's a ton more eye candy out there to see!  Have a great time hopping, the full list is below.

One last thing....if you've been thinking about picking up a Ribbon Carousel of your own, this month is the time to do it - they are 30% off this month!

Supplies Used
Paper/Cardstock:  CTMH - Black and White Daisy
Stamps:  Neat & Tangled - Party Dots; Waltzingmouse - Half Pint Heroes
Ink:  Versamark
Other:  CTMH - Silver Embossing Powder; American Crafts - Glitter Tape; Therm-o-web - Zots Dimensional Adhesive
