Blog Hop.New Release, and Christmas in July Challenge


Hello everyone.... well as you see from the title we have lots going on today lol.

Its time for a new release at LADYBUG CRAFTS INK  - 6 new Digi images called CHRISTMAS DELIGHTS.!!

To celebrate we are having a blog hop... and ... no need to panic .. Head Ladybug is loosening the reins .. and you have a whole month to hop in!

The rules of the hop are as always 
1. Leave a comment on each of the DT posts as you hop
2. Each DT member will have a letter for you to collect... once you have them all they will spell a word which you then email to lcichallengeblog@aol.com
3. Leave a comment on the Challenge blog letting us know which image you like best
4. Display our badge in your side bar to spread the word.

The winner of the hop will receive all 6 of the new digi  images .. and 5 runners up will receive 2 each.

Not only can you do the hop and win a prize .. but we also have our normal challenge running too... and the theme this week... is of course ..

CHRISTMAS IN JULY
You have a whole month to enter too!

as a little taster the team are giving you a little sneaky peak of their projects ...they are listed  in the order of the hop.. so if you get lost .. just pop back here to get back on track.
























So.. to get you started .. the first letter you need to collect is.....N ( The letters aren't in order .. so will be an anagram of the finished word and you will have to unscramble them)

Have fun.... and the DT look forward to seeing all your  Christmas Creations.

If you want to use an LCI image to enter the challenge and be in with a second chance to win a prize what better time to stock up as all cling stamps are HALF PRICE for the Months of July and August!! 


The new Digi's are £1.75 each.. so either way you don't have to break the Bank!!

OOPS..... and before I forget ... did you notice we have a new LADYBUG at HQ?

Welcome Susan... its great to have you on board .. please make sure you leave a little extra ladybug love for her as you hop by.

Phew think that's all!!...

HAVE FUN!

Great cards DT & a lovely blog hop. Think my fav images are either Vase of Holly or Christmas Robin Delight - but it's a tough call as they are all lovely. Now all I need do is work out that strange word! Jx

wow gorgeous DT cards ladies.

greetings karin

Marianne said...

Finally found some time to do the hop. Loved the DT creations and the fab new stamps. It's hard to pick a favourite, but I think I would start with Christmas Robin Delight(... or maybe the Handbag Tree ... or ...). Haven't got a clue what the word is, hope I'll manage to unscramble the letters. ;-(
