Ribbon Carousel Holiday Blog Hop and GIVEAWAY!

Hello, folks!  Today I am participating in the super fun Ribbon Carousel Holiday Blog Hop!  We are all sharing photos of our carousels AND there is a chance for you to WIN a Ribbon Carousel of your own!  I LOVE mine!!!!  I actually have two... an older one that I was given and a brand new one that I just loaded up with my twine spools!  

I love how easy it is to see all of my ribbon and twine on the carousels and that they look so PRETTY!!!!  Also, it keeps the spools well organized in a small space, which is always a good thing!


Would you like to win your very own Ribbon Carousel? Here is what you need to do: 

Visit the Designer’s blogs that are participating in each day of the blog hop and comment on their posts as you go. One of the Crewmate’s Holiday blogs (from each hop day) will be randomly chosen as the ‘it’ blog and a winner will be picked using a random number generator from the comments left on that Crewmate’s Holiday Blog Hop post.
You will not know which blog has been chosen so the more Crewmate Blogs you comment on, the  better your chances are of winning your very own Ribbon Carousel! The Blog Hop will be open  until 11:59 PM Eastern Time Monday, November 25th with the winners being announced Tuesday  morning on the Ribbon Carousel Blog.
Already have a Ribbon Carousel? Share a photo of YOUR Ribbon Carousel on our FaceBook  page OR email it to info@ribboncarousel.com, and we'll share it for you! You'll be in special  drawing for your choice of a Ribbon Carousel or 4 packages of spools!

Be sure to head on over to the Ribbon Carousel Blog to see the full hop list for your chance to WIN!!!

A Bit of CAS-ual Fall and a Ribbon Carousel Challenge!

I have a post JAM packed with goodness today!  I have a gorgeous card up over on the CAS-ual Fridays Stamps blog today AND on the Ribbon Carousel Blog for RCC 86 today, as well!  Woot!  Woot!!!  This card uses SO many fun products, but I am just absolutely loving the gorgeous Amer Waves stamp set from CAS-ual Fridays!  It's the PERFECT fall set!  Perfect, I tell you!  That's why I had to pull it out to show it off for the RCC 86 Challenge, as it's all about FALL and Halloween!!!



I decided to have some fun layering some gorgeous papers and ribbon and then adding even more texture with embossing.  I just love it!  So warm and cozy and Thanksgiving-y.  (Yup.  Totally a word.  'Cause I totally decided it is one.  For reals.)



Be sure to check out the CAS-ual Fridays Stamps blog for more awesome inspiration!  Also, be sure to check out the Ribbon Carousel blog to participate in this month's challenge!  You could win your very own RIBBON CAROUSEL!!!!  (Yes... they are awesome.  It's really that simple.)
