Jingle Bells & Tinkle Bells Hippity Hop!

JBTBHIPHOP

Such an exciting day for us all here at The House Of Sugar….the launch of a new range of stamps is always a BIG thrill but, for me, this one has been extra special!

The 'hippity hop' began on The Sugar Nellie blog and you’ve found your way here from

Cathy

and her fabulous card using Knitted With Love…..and I have a new one for you…this was not one of our sneak peeks and so allow me to introduce you to….

Warm Winter Wishes

Gayle2

Like all of this range this stamp will be available to buy from Funkykits at 10am this morning

Aren’t they just the cutest little penguins?

Regular readers of this blog will know that I am currently experimenting with my new Prisma pencils and one of the main reasons I wanted to try them was the ability to colour on kraft card with them…this was my second attempt ever using Prismas and my first ever on kraft card.

Loving those pencils!

Now, back to the business in hand….

I’ve been sandwiched between my two new Sugar Bowl Sweeties and so I am passing you over to

Fiona

Wait until you see the ‘star’ she has for you!

Please remember there will be candy for random comments left along the blog so please leave some sugar where you stop!!!

Thank you for all your hard work getting this organized - it's been a joy & you certainly managed to build up a sense of excitement in me. Your pencil colouring is brilliant is super - are you sure you've not dabbled with pencils in a previous life?? Your shading of the beaks & feet is gorgeous & I've really fallen for this stamp.
Terrific.
