SIMON SAYS......... LET'S GET HOPPING

Hello peeps,

I'm so sorry my blog hop post is late, I've only just come on line and hadn't realised there was a mix up with our publishing time & I then had problems trying to over ride my scheduled post grrrrrrr lol.

LETS GET HOPPING

For the second year in a row, Simon Says Stamp and Show & The Simon Says Stamp Challenge are joining forces to bring you a SUPER hop and treasure hunt to celebrate the approaching fall and winter holidays.

The Blog hop will finish on September 5th at 12 MN Ohio time (Sept 6th, 6 am CET, 5 am UK time) on the Simon Says Stamp and Show Blog.
The last stop on the hop is the Simon Says Stamp and Show Challenge blog. You will need to leave a comment there with the names of the 3 blogs with hidden treasure. The comments will be moderated so you will not be able to see the answers.

The theme for both challenges this week will be

 ANYTHING GOES.

You can make anything you like … a card, an ATC, a Scrapbook layout … the possibilities are endless!

You will need to hop through each blog, find the little parcel of goodies and make a note on which designer’s blog you found them. You do not HAVE to comment on all the DT blogs but we would appreciate any comments you would like to leave. If you lose your way at any time a full list of all the participating blogs with links will be available on Simon Says Stamp Challenge and the Stamp and Show Challenge blogs.

If you arrived here from the super talented 

SARAH'S Blog

 then you are going in the right direction otherwise you need to start at the beginning on the Simon Says Stamp Challenge.
