Today, through this blog hop, we will be showcasing the gorgeous and festive new Make It Merry collection from October Afternoon. I know you are going to love it, so let's get started!
created this card using several of my favorite pieces from Make It Merry: patterned paper, chipboard, a postcard, die cuts, and a button. I just love the colors of the collection.
I don't have the Sprinklers for this collection yet, so I used the Witch's Brew Sprinklers from the Witch Hazel collection instead to color the chipboard. I think it works really well with this collection, don't you?
Make It Merry Washi Tape
Today during the hop, I'm giving away a package of Make It Merry Washi Tape. All you have to do is leave a comment here on my blog by Monday, November 12th, at midnight CST, and let me know how you see yourself using this fun product. I'll draw one lucky winner to receive it. And don't forget to make your way back to the OA blog where the Grand Prize is being given away - a whole Make It Merry Collection Kit! You won't want to miss that!
Now it's on to Jill's blog
