Skipping Stones Blog Hop – Hop(e) for Haiti

Welcome to Skipping Stones Design’s Blog Hop(e) for Haiti. If you are just visiting my blog today, you can start at the begging of the Hop(e) at Skipping Stones Design.  If you are hopping, you should have come from Wendy’s blog. 

Skipping Stones Designs wanted to do something to give back to the people who have been so devastated by the Haitian Earthquake.  So what better way than to Hop(e).  Each card you see on the blog hop today will be auctioned on E-bay with all proceeds going to the Red Cross in support of the Haitian Relief Effort (please check the Skipping Stones Design Website for the link to the auction).  100% of the proceeds of the Ebay auction and $2.00 from every stamp set purchased from February 16 - 22 will be donated to the Red Cross. We know that we can make a difference. 

For my cards I used the Rustic Tiles set. I thought the stamps would make a great set of cards, and I was right!
Stamps: Rustic Tiles (Skipping Stones Designs)
Cardstock: Black, Moss (Papertrey Ink)
Ink: Aqua Mist (Papertrey Ink)
Ribbon: True Black (Papertrey Ink)
Misc: Rhinestones (Kaiser); Punch Apron Lace (Fiskars)

Thank you for stopping by and your next blog to hop to is Belinda.

Also... there's a prize involved with this hop details from Skipping Stones Designs: 

 How about a prize? In addition to the fabulous eye candy, we have decided to hide a prize somewhere along the hop! There will be a few pre-release sets up for grabs hidden along the blog hop.  The fun part is...we're not telling you who it is! So as you hop, make sure you leave comments on every post so you have a chance to win!!

If you lose your place along the way,  there will be a master list at:
