Love Bugs Banner for Kids Hop

Welcome to the “Love Bugs Banners for Kids” Hop Day 2

Several talented crafty people have come together for a two day hop (Friday, January 6th and Saturday, January 7th) to showcase handmade banners that will be donated to the children at Pediatric Specialty Care. The hope of these banners is that they bring smiles to these children's faces and awareness of Pediatric Specialty Care to all those that hop along.

The “Love Bugs Banner for Kids” Hop has some awesome sponsors and prizes to give away to all those that hop along and leave comments. The more blogs you visit and leave comments at, the more chances you have of winning.

 Our Generous Sponsors are:

 Jellypark Digital Stamps will award 2 free digi-images to one winner.

 K Andrews Designs has donated a stamp set to one winner.

 Robyn's Fetish will donate FIVE digital images of the winner's choice as a prize!

Plus there might be some blog candy along the way :)

Here is  my banner....

All of my adorable bugs are cut using files from My Scrap Chick~Blissful Bugs

All of my pieces were cut using SCAL sized to fit on coaster I picked up a long while back at my local scrap booking store.

Some additional supplies used include

Tim Holtz Distress ink in Fire Brick

Olive Green pigment ink

Peachy Keen Stamps~ Princess Faces

Chalk for the cheeks

White gel pen

Holly Berry Crinkle ribbon from 3 Girl Jam

Here are close~ups of each piece

The DP is all from my stash and I will reference the name if I can remember LOL!

This red polka dot paper is from Glitz Designs~ Love Nest Polka

The heart is cut from George and Basic Shapes

and the "L" is from the same

Not sure if you can tell but the coasters are all embossed with hearts using a Fiskars embossing plate

I also embossed the leaf~cut from Create a Critter using Divine Swirls

This Green Polka dot paper is from 25 Days of Christmas~Peace Love Joy

This Black and White Polka Dot paper is one of my favorites

My Minds Eye~Blackbird

Love this paper!!

And finally this polka dot paper is a download I won over at Get Funky

I printed it out on cream card stock

I really hope this brightens up a little kiddo's room!

I had so much fun designing it :)

Now onto to some Blog Candy!!!

I am such a HUGE fan of Julie's Crinkle ribbon over at 3 Girl Jam that I wanted to give one lucky commenter a pack of the

Holly Berry that I used with this banner.

It also comes with some Mistletoe Ribbon

Yes I know Christmas is over but the Holly Berry is PERFECT for Valentines Day

and the green Mistletoe....a GREAT springtime color!

All you have to do to be eligible for my candy is leave me a comment with a way to get in touch with you if you are the lucky winner!

I will draw a winner on Wed Jan 11th
