Season’s Givings Blog Hop!

By Taheerah | 1st January 2015 | 438 Comments

Hey everyone! Happy New Year – and welcome! Welcome to the Season’s Givings Blog Hop!

In case you don’t know what the Season’s Givings Blog Hop is, I’ll explain. 🙂

This New Year’s tradition first began three years ago when the fabulously talented Latisha Yoast decided to host a giveaway on her blog as a way of saying thanks to all her blog readers. After speaking with a few friends she realised that this was something a lot of companies and designers alike felt like doing, and so the Season’s Givings Blog Hop was born! Three years on and the tradition is still going strong, with this year’s offering being bigger and better than ever! Trust me – I’ve seen some of the giveaways!!

So, anyways, let’s get the show on the road!

For those of you who’ve never been here before – welcome! I’m Taheerah and I’m an avid stamper and paper crafter. I love playing with stamps and inks and papers and sequins and all kinds of fun stuff! I’m on a few different Design Teams, and I also host my own challenge called Cure For The Monday Blues so you may have seen my work around blogland!

To those of you who have been here before, and/or who are avid followers already, I want to extend a *huge* thank you. You guys keep me blogging even when my energy is lacking, and give me encouragement and make me feel like my work is worthwhile. You are patient with me when I don’t get things 100% right, and you are always there to help me feel special. You guys are awesome and I appreciate you so so much!!

So, we’re all here because we want to win some stuff, right?! Before we get to that, I thought I’d welcome you, and 2015, with this New Year’s card I recently made for Newton’s Nook:

Fun right?! I love the colour combination of black, white and gold!

I love techniques, so I also included die cutting, fussy cutting and heat embossing in this creation!

I’m always trying to bring new and fresh content and work to my blog, and recently I started recording crafting videos too! Here’s a fun Get Well card I recently made and filmed:

And here’s the accompanying video! 

 

So I hope you see there’s a reason to keep coming back here, even after the giveaway. *wink* I’d love you to subscribe to my YouTube Channel, or to follow me on any or all of my social media (links are in my sidebar, underneath my photo! 🙂 or you can find me here on FB, Twitter, Pinterest, BlogLovin, Feedly, Instagram, Flickr or e-mail!). And if you’d like to see some of my work then the easiest way is to keep scrolling, or to look at my Pinterest board here!

If you already follow my blog by any of the above channels you can have an extra entry to the giveaway and leave a second comment! If you subscribe to my YouTube Channel as well you can leave another comment too! That’s up to three chances to win!!

Right, I’ve held you hostage for long enough, lol! I know you’re all here to win a bunch of goodies, and here’s what I’m giving away as a part of this Hop! 

Yummy yummy Blog Candy!! There’s a whole bunch of goodies here (including a Limited Edition Anniversary Set from Papertrey Ink which cannot be found on sale), and it’s easily at least a $100 value! AND I’m probably going to keep adding to this package over the course of the following week, so you definitely want to enter my giveaway!!

I’ll be keeping this giveaway going until 00:00EST/05:00GMT on January 8th (my birthday!) so you have until then to leave me a comment and tell me one thing you’re looking forward to in 2015, or to say something nice about my work! REMEMBER: if you already follow my blog by any of the channels mentioned earlier in this post you can have an extra entry to the giveaway and leave a second comment! If you subscribe to my YouTube Channel you can leave another comment too! That’s up to three chances to win!!

I’ll draw a winner on the 8th, and I’ll send the package worldwide by the end of the month! 🙂

There’s a *huge* list of companies and designers taking part in this Hop – and every single stop has a giveaway!! I hope you’ll take the time to visit them and enter and leave them some love too! 🙂 A *huge* thank you to Latisha for organising this Hop – having organised massive hops myself I know how much work is involved! *wink*

Thank you so much for stopping by – and please come again soon!

  44. I've just found your blog for the first time today, but LOVE what I see, so I signed up for the blog, your challenge and subscribed to your YouTube channel. I don't know if that means I should leave and exa post or not, so I won't. I'm just glad I found your sites for inspiration! Happy New Year!
