It's World Card Making Day!

Hello sweet peeps! Are you ready to let your fingers get inky and watch the paper fly? Well, what are you waiting for? It's our day happy stampers!

It's World Card Making Day!

Power Poppy wants to help you celebrate! Just in case you missed it, Power Poppy released 10 -- yes TEN -- new digital stamp sets yesterday full of fall flair!

IT'S A POWER POPPY FALL DIGITAL BLITZ!

Just CLICK HERE to see the gorgeous sets and CLICK HERE to see Marcella's post yesterday showing off some of the beautiful creations that some of the Bloomies and Instant Gardeners created for this release! Maybe we can enable you to pick a few up at the Power Poppy Shop to create some autumnal masterpieces in your own stamping spaces!

To help you creatively enjoy this beautiful season and add some beautiful fall-themed cards to your stash, we thought we'd usher in a little WORLD CARD MAKING DAY CHALLENGE!

HOW TO PLAY

Create on this World Card Making day with a fall theme in mind!
We will enter your card twice if you create with fall in mind and use a sentiment that shares a theme of gratitude!
We will enter your card three times if you create with fall in mind, use a sentiment of gratitude AND use a Power Poppy stamp!
Link up your creation below so we can all see!

Once you link up, you'll be entered to win a $25 gift code to the Power Poppy Shop! And, if you do decide to load up on some of the new sets, here's an extra little incentive for you!

Just use the coupon code above to get five bucks off any purchase of $15 or more! Woot Woot! What a deal!

In honor of World Card Making Day, we have some of the Bloomies and Instant Gardeners on standby to give you a shot of inspiration before you get to crafting! So, be sure you stop by and say "hey" to these lovely ladies!

Hello folks! Hope you had an amazing World Card Making Day! Maybe you got a jump start on your holiday cards? Maybe you created a few random acts of kindness that you later hope to stuff in an envelope to send some smiles across the miles? Whatever the case may be -- I just love having an excuse to create. Not like we need one but when we say, "Hey, I am making cards because it's World Card Making Day...." Who can argue? ;-)

So, we asked you folks to comment on our beloved Bloomies' posts on Saturday and if you did, you have a chance at winning a Power Poppy Goody Bag! So, we threw all the names/comments in a virutal hat and the random winner is.....

This lovely commenter came from Cindy Lawrence's blog! Debbie, in order to claim your winnings, email us at bloom@powerpoppy.com and Ms. Marcella will be sending some fun things your way!
