JR Blog Hop Day 3

Welcome to Day 3 of the JustRite Mega March Blog Hop!  Have you been enjoying the first couple of days?  Haven't the projects been awesome!!  If you've missed any you can find the links on the JustRite Stampers Blog.

Today I've decided to use the violets from Breath of Spring and the sentiment from Joyful Hearts to create my card.


I love this sweet bouquet of violets and coloured them with markers (pale plum, perfect plum, mellow moss and old olive) and a blender pen and then cut them out and popped them up.  Such a perfect match for the new Basic Grey Kioshi DSP that I picked up last week!!  :)


I decorated the inside using the same decorative border (in the smaller size) to frame the sentiment.


Stamps - Breath of Spring, Joyful Hearts (JustRite)
Paper - Lt Purple Bazzill, Green Bazzill, White, Basic Grey Kioshi DSP
Ink - Perfect Plum, Memento Tuxedo Black
Accessories - Label 5, Large Oval and Large Scallop Oval Nestabilities, Fiskars Lace Border Punch, Sewing Machine, May Arts Olive Ribbon, Kaisercraft Snow Pearls, Foam Tape.

30 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 Three) JustRite and its sponsors will be giving away the following five prizes:

· $200 JustRite Shopping Spree
· $100 Spellbinders Shopping Spree
· $100 Copic Prize Package, and
· Two additional $100 JustRite Shopping Sprees!

Blog comments for Day Three will be open until Saturday at 6pm EST.  On Sunday, JustRite will announce on their blog which five blogs have the mystery candy for Day Three.  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.
