JustRite Mega March Blog Hop

28 designers, FIVE shopping sprees each day. No one knows where the prizes will be! Each day of the hop JustRite will have five Mystery Blog Candy Prizes hidden along the hop with a total retail value of $600. JustRite will randomly select five mystery blogs each day of the hop and randomly allocate each of the shopping sprees. For your chance to win, simply leave a little love (a comment) on each designer’s blog including the JustRite blog. The more designers you leave comments with, the better your chances of winning. Each day’s comments will remain open for three days. A winner from each of the mystery blogs’ comments will be randomly chosen using Random.org. Consult the listing of designers at the JustRite blog each day (each day’s designers will be different) and start out on your way! Beginning Friday, March 26, summaries of all the winners will be posted on the JustRite blog. Good luck to everyone and enjoy all the JustRite eye candy along the hop!

Today during the JustRite Mega March Blog Hop (Day One) JustRite and its sponsors will be giving away the following five prizes:

· $200 JustRite Shopping Spree

· $100 Spellbinders Shopping Spree


· $100 Stampers Dream Shopping Spree, and


· Two additional $100 JustRite Shopping Sprees!

Blog comments for Day One will be open until Thursday at 6pm EST. On Friday, JustRite will announce on their blog which five blogs have the mystery candy for Day One. You will need to go to the JustRite blog to determine where you need to go to find out if you are one of the five lucky winners.

It's no secret that I'm a huge JustRite fan, so I'm honored to be a part of this fantastic blog hop. I hope you like the project I have to share with you today. I've never made an easel card, and they've been quite popular lately. So, I thought it'd be a perfect way to showcase some of JustRite's fabulous images. (You can find a terrific Easel Card tutorial at SCS HERE.)

Here's just the front of the card. I stamped the flowers from the My Garden set with Versamark onto watercolor paper, embossed them with Detail Black ep, and colored them with Tombows. The gorgeous dp is Le Romantique by Graphic 45. I used one of Tim Holtz's new distress inks to ink up the edges too. It's called Pumice Stone, and it's one of my new faves!! I framed the corner circle with Kaisercraft rhinestones, and the image with Zva Creative rhinestones.

Here' a look at the card in its Easel form.



And Finally, here's the inside: The sentiment is from the Joyful Hearts Borders and Centers Oval set and is framed with a Fancy Tag (Spellbinders). The border is a Martha Stewart Punch.


Thanks so much for hopping by. If you came here by way of Becca's Blog, you're on the right path. If not, start at the JustRite Inspiration Blog. Then follow along on the hop. The next person on the hop is Kazan Clark.
