Happy Moose Day!

Riley-TV-wm

Hi everyone!

Welcome to Riley and Company’s blog hop! If you didn’t start at the beginning of this hop, you might want to head on over to the Riley and Company blog so that you don’t miss out on anything.

Be sure to leave a comment on everyone’s blog as you travel from blog to blog as each of the Riley and Company Design Team members will be given away one new Riley stamp to a random person who leaves a comment on their blog!

My first card I have to share with you today uses the new “TV Riley” and “floor” image, the sentiment is from the Riley Sentiment set. All the new stamps will be available to purchase from Riley and Company NOW!!!!!!! Don’t forget that besides releasing 6 brand new stamps, we are also re-releasing the floor, brick wall and Moose Sentiment set, so if you missed out the first time around you will be able to pick it up now.

I created the scene combining paper piecing and masking.

Riley-Cheers-wm

My second card today uses “Cheers Riley”, this is perfect for the men in our lives. I used a cuttlebug embossing folder to create the texture to my base card adding brown ink over the raised plaid portion of the embossed piece.

Well that is about it from me for today, now it is time to hop on over to the fabulous Silke Kittmann and see what awesome creation she has to share with you today.

Enjoy the rest of the hop and thanks for dropping by! Don't forget to leave comments on all the blogs, so that you have a chance to win some blog candy.
