~ There She Goes August Hop Day 3 ~
August 27th, 2009 by Holly McMillen
Howdy, Friends!
I am having such a blast with this month’s There She Goes’ releases. Aren’t they so fun!? Each day is like opening a new present.
Today’s sneak peek is of the new mini set, Dream Big. When I saw this set, I had pictured exactly what I wanted to do. These images harken to Cinderella. I saw her majestic carriage! And what says “Happily ever after” more than Cinderella?!
I first made the little minis (what better to do with a mini set?!) Then I decided they needed some decorated envelopes. It didn’t stop there! They needed a nice neat little box, too :). I used the mini pizza box tutorial from the resources section on Splitcoaststampers.
Here are my deets:
Stamps: There She Goes’ Dream Big Mini set
Colors: Old Olive, Pumpkin Pie, GP White, PTI Green Tea Leaves dp
Ink: Always Artichoke, Pumpkin Pie
Accessories: gold 1/2 pearls, ribbon, nesties (oval, label 1 and label 2), word window punch, sticky tape, dimensionals, scoring blade

Now it’s time to hop! If you arrived from Faith’s blog, you are spot on. If not, you should start back at Jessica’s blog. From here, you will want to hop over to Joanne’s blog. I have listed the blogs below in case you get lost
Tomorrow Night we will be having a release party/birthday bash in the There She Goes Forum. You can find it HERE. It is from 6-8 pm PST. There will be games and prizes. Hope to see you there!!
Thanks for stopping by! Hope you have a blessed day 🙂
