It's a Sneaky Peeky Kind of DAY!

Hello there, friends!  I'm so happy to see you today!

Did you come from Denise Marzec's blog?  If so - AWESOME - you are hopping along with us!  If NOT, then go back to the beginning at the OCL BLOG and hop along from the beginning - you DON'T want to miss out on this!

It's that time again when Our Craft Lounge sneaks a peek at NEW STAMP SETS!  They are releasing FOUR BRAND NEW stamp sets!  And take my word for it - they ROCK!

Here's  my sneak peek, using the stamp set Shout it Out!


This card was FUN to make!  I used Die Cuts with a View cardstock - isn't it PERFECT?  This alligator makes me SMILE!  I even paper pieced him.  But I did it in a special way.


I stamped the alligator on to a transparency.  I then heat embossed it with black embossing powder.  After that was done, I glued the transparency directly on to the patterned paper using Glossy Accents - let it dry - and then cut the whole guy out.  He SHINES - I love it! 

WANT TO WIN one of the four stamp sets?  Leave a comment here for a chance.  Once tomorrow's BLOG HOP (that's right - hopping tomorrow with more eye candy and you'll be able to see all of the sets) is over, FOUR LUCKY PEEPS will each win one stamp set from this new release!

OK - so now you neeeeeed to go see some more eye candy sneak peeks!  So it is time to hop on.

Go to JOY STAGG'S blog for the next stop! 

And come back tomorrow!
