Challenge 25 - NEW RELEASE BLOG HOP and FASHION THEME


Hello everyone - well it's another BIG day today here at the Ladybug Crafts Ink Challenge blog and we're all so excited! Kerry has a new release of stamps and we are having a Blog Hop to celebrate with lots of chances to win a prize :-D

 
Before we begin with the details of the hop the we would like to say a big thank you to everyone who entered our Anything Goes challenge last week... we had a record number of entries and we so enjoyed popping over to you blogs to see your creations.

So now on to the Hop.. all the DT have not only had to use the challenge theme, but they have also each used one of the new images. There are 4 in all and you'll agree when you see their creations the new images are just flabulous! (None of the DT have seen each other's cards either so we can't wait to hop either!)

Here are the rules of the Hop...
a) Visit each of the DT members in order and leave a comment on each of their blog hop posts.

b)  Leave a comment on the challenge blog once you have finished the hop.

c) You don't need a blog to win but if you do, display the blog hop banner which is at the top of this post on your blog, either in a post
or on your side bar.

The First Prize is all 4 images in the new release
and we have 4 Runner up prizes of one new image each.  Winners will be chosen at random!

Easy eh?

The hop will close 12pm midday GMT on Monday 2nd MAY and the winner will be announced at 9am GMT on Tuesday 3rd MAY

The first stop on the hop is  PAM
and here is the rest of the hop -just in case you get lost...

PINKY

You'll notice we have an extra name on the hop and you might just recognise it too! Jeanie aka The Spotted Chick emailed when she saw the new images and BEGGED to be allowed to play along...ok, it didn't quite go like that, more likely the other way around lol. Either way we are delighted Jeanie is playing with us this week.

Now onto the challenge - which is the other way you can win a prize.. and this week its KERRY who has chosen the theme which is  ....

FASHION

 You have 2 ways to win a prize .. you can just play along with the hop or enter the challenge .. and for the brave you can do both! 

And if you don't win.. you can still enjoy the stamps at a discount price as the stamps will be on sale from today with a special price of £5.50 until Monday May 2nd 

Have fun.. and cant wait to see your fabulous fashionable creations
