Amber Ink Holiday Blog Hop!

Welcome to our second annual Amber Ink Holiday blog hop.
This year our alumni are tapping in to their inner elves for some fun and frolic.


Here's a closeup of my little swimmy Elf, using a combination of images from Best Fishes, Under the Sea, and Day at the Beach.


We've made our list but you'll probably want to check it twice.
Or check it thrice. We just don't know who'll be naughty or nice.

There are 23 commenting spots to be precise
And 23 prizes to help entice.

So see those badges down below?
Roll the dice. Let elf magic flow…

Hop on Monday
Hop on Tuesday
Prizes on Wednesday

One Grand Prize winner will receive an Elf of the Shelf gift set, so be sure to visit every single elfin spot. The final list will be sent to Santa, so remember… the only person you are really competing with is your elf.

Don't forget to comment here...one lucky winner will receive the Elf image that I've used on my card today! Thanks for coming. Now it's time to visit Taylor...hop on!!!

Out in the sun they slave away...while we devotin' full time to floatin' under the sea...

Good morning, people!! Welcome to the Amber Ink. Grand Opening Blog Frolic! Today the Amber Ink. store officially opens its doors, and you are invited to hang out with us! We've also invited some special friends to participate, in addition to our Brilliant th(Ink)Tank Girls, so get ready to drool!

I decided to use my favorites of this release so far...Can I Keep Him?!! and the Pink Ombre Tiny Dolphin Paisley iPaper. LOVE them both!



I am also lovin' the description that Amber has on the site:
'Can I Keep Him' fills two of the deepest voids I have ever had.
1) to be a mermaid.
2) to rescue and keep EVERY SINGLE animal who has ever had need of a home.


 I can totally relate! Especially with the animal part. *wink*

My starting off point for this card was a sketch by Kim Teasdale for the Dare to Get Dirty Challenges over on Splitcoast. I colored the image with Copics, added some Glossy Accents to the mermaid and the seal, Diamond Stickles to her hair, then spritzed with Caribbean Blue Glimmer Mist so it looked like she was under water. I spritzed the Soft Sky base layer as well.

So....not only do we have eye candy for you, but we're giving away some secret hidden prizes along the way. You won't know where they are hiding, so make sure to leave some love wherever you go. Winners will be chosen from the comments on the pre-selected blog posts.

Without further ado, here's the list of genius...go forth and comment!

As the world gives us its best, to stand apart from all the rest...it is the power of the dream that brings us here...

Good morning, y'all!! Happy Thursday! Hopefully your week is going great. Mine gets better the closer we get to Friday! *wink* I have a fun announcement today, so grab your morning cup (mine's a Coke from Sonic) and hang out for a minute, k?

Over two years ago, I became friends with the most fabulous girl...she's so fun, funny, creative, artistic and passionate. After working in the stamping world for only about 3 months, she fell in love with us (how could she not?!) and has dreamed of starting her own stamp company. So when Amber Alvarez told me about AmberInk. I definitely wanted to be a part of her journey in some way.

So today I am officially...


Isn't that the best title ever? It makes me giggle. Basically I help guide Amber & Pam concerning the in's and out's of the stamping world. Things like "What is a Nestability?" and "Does size matter?" just to give you a couple of examples. In addition, I am holding the reins for the (th)Ink Tank (aka Design Team) as Amber learns how things work in our crazy little world.

Anyway, I'm totally excited to tell you that the Grand Opening of Amber Ink. will be on Tuesday, July 20th.



Previews will begin tomorrow on the Torchbearers' blogs, so watch for those...who knows...maybe I'll even have a chance to sneak something in!

Speaking of, it's my privilege to introduce to you the first ever Design Team for Amber Ink.!


Aren't they fabulous? I'm so excited to see what they have planned for you over the next 4 days. So fun!

In the meantime, you can check out the Amber Ink. Blog, as well as *like* us on Facebook in case we decided to have any fun giveaways or contests! In fact, there is one going on right now for a $15 gift certificate that you have until 12 am midnight, Friday July 16th to enter...you can see the details HERE.

WHEW! Ok, I think that's everything...have fun and stay tuned! More fun stuff to come...have a fabulous day!
