DeNami's Cards for Guys Blog Hop

NOTE: Oh dear! I made a terrible mistake when writing up this post. I accidentally scheduled it for the wrong date! :( I feel dumb, and I apologize to those of you who might have gotten confused earlier.  I should have double-checked to make sure the post went through properly. :(

Hello there everyone! Welcome to DeNami's monthly card blog hop. If you came here from Britta's blog, then you're on the right track! 

This month's theme is "Cards for Guys". This can be a rather tricky theme at times, but it's also very fun one. So since most guys tend to like sports, I figured it would be cool to create some baseballs using the the DeNami Stitched Circle stamp. 

The stitched circles worked just perfectly for creating my own baseballs. I simply stamped them in black, and then used a thin red marker to make the stitching lines on the inside. 

Hope you guys enjoyed my card! 

Your next stop on the blog hop is the wonderful: Dana Seymour.

"Anything But A Card" Blog Hop

Hello Friends!

Welcome to the DeNami Design Monthly Blog Hop! If you've arrived here from Tammy Hobb's wonderful blog, then you're on the right track.  However, if you'd like to start at the beginning of the hop, then just visit the DeNami Blog for a full list of all of the participants. 

This month's blog hop theme is "Anything But A Card". Therefore, the possibilities are absolutely endless!... (So long as it's not a card, of couse)... :)

For my project, I chose to make this 3D Pumkin below:

Now, I actually can't take full credit for this design. I was inspired by a photograph that I had seen on Pinterest a while back. I just love that site! Anyways, I thought this 3D Pumkin would be perfect for my blog hop post, being that we are currently in the Fall season and also since the Thanksgiving holiday is just around the corner. 

I thought it would be a fun idea to make more of these pumpkins in order to decorate a house with an Autumn feel, or even to decorate a Thanksgiving dinner table! :)

Well, I hope you've enjoyed this project. Don't forget to leave comments in order have your chance at possible winning a gift card from DeNami Design! Oh, and be sure to check out the rest of the fabulous projects on the "Anything But A Card" Blog Hop too.
