Winter Wonderland - Candy Cane (Red & White) and Blog Hop

Well it's finally arrived after weeks of planning - the Winter Wonderland Blog Hop. Pop on over to check out the prizes on offer from our new sponsors Nikki from Bunny-Zoes and Christine from Sketching Stamper and also to read the rules regarding the Blog Hop. Now all that there's left for me to do is welcome you to my blog.

I'm Lynda and you should have been directed here from Sam's blog. Please leave a message on here to let me know you've visited (and don't forget to leave a link on Winter Wonderland for your card too) and that will ensure that you will be in with a chance to win my blog hop candy... which is a My Mind's Eye 'Ooh La La' Paper Kit. You should then head over to Joey's blog for another chance to win some fabulous candy. If you've happened upon my blog by chance and would like to join in please head back over to the Winter Wonderland blog to get yourself started. Good luck to you all!


This is the card I've made for this week's theme of Candy Cane Red & White and if you look real close you will see the little stocking contains a candy cane too.


Image is a Pink Petticoat download coloured with Copics.
I made the backing paper myself using 120gsm paper and simply drawing red stripes.
