So get those hopping fingers ready and start clinking your way from blog to blog! Be sure to leave comments on all the blog hop posts for your chance to win this blog candy prize!

The blog candy prize includes: Unity Kit 100% Happy, 6x6 pack of Nikki Sivils paper, Victoria's Street clear stamp set, pack of brads, bottle of tear drops, American Crafts thickers rainboots, pack of flair, and a pack of glittered chipboard.

Not only will you find great stamping supplies and products from major manufacturers, but at Paper Maniac you can also find some great "Take N' Make" card kits which include papers, embellishments, and envelopes ready for you to use with your own stamps and ink. And Paper Maniac is also a Unity retailer! If you're a fan of Unity stamps, Paper Maniac will be carrying exclusive Unity kits and you can sign up for their auto ship program!

Now on to the hop! If you are just finding out about this blog hop, you need to go back to the start HERE and then continue to hop. If you have been hopping along and joining in our fun, you should be coming to my blog from DANA'S BLOG. Remember to leave comments on all the blog hop posts for your chance at the blog hop candy!

This is the card I created using both a Unity stamp set, Feel the Joy and a Unity sentiment from their kit, 100% Happy! You can find both of these products at the Paper Maniac online store on Tuesday!

I used some SU! cardstock in Black, Vanilla, and Saffron. I stamped a script background on the vanilla and then stamped some of the flower images from the Feel the Joy set in saffron around the edges. The main image is from Feel the Joy and has been framed using a cool transparency sheet that I received from my friend Vicki. I embellished this card with gingham ribbon, Prima flowers, BasicGrey buttons and hemp twine, some lace ribbon and black brads.

Now you need to head on over to EMILY'S BLOG to continue on this fun Paper Maniac Blog Hop! You can have fun hopping from now until September 6th and on September 7th the blog hop candy winner will be announced on the Paper Maniac blog!

And if you want a chance at some other prizes, hop back over to my blog on Tuesday, September 1st for details and Paper Maniac Grand Opening info!

Thanks for stopping by today! Have fun hopping! :)
