Hero Hostess Alumni Blog Hop

2016hostesshop-600
I am super excited to be a part of very special blog hop with a group of ladies who are near and dear to my crafty heart, the Hero Arts Hostesses! I was a Hero Arts Hostess back in 2012, after being a huge fan of Hero Arts for many years. Today I am hopping along with my hostess sisters and playing with some stamps from the company I've been using since I started stamping. I decided to keep it simple today, with a lot of stamping from the Holiday Pine Branches set and a big bold We Wish You A Merry Christmas sentiment in some non-traditional colors:
Cheiron- we wish you a merry christmas_

The next stop on the hop is one of my very sweet and talented hostess sisters, Kathy Wade and I am sure she has something wonderful to share with you. Be sure to stop along at all the stops on the hop, and check out the list of fabulous Hostesses from yesterday too for even more chances to win. Here's what's up for grabs: 

Hero Arts will be awarding 4 prizes ($25 to Hero Arts online shop).
Today's hop:

1 bonus prize on the Hero Arts blog
Yesterday's hop
