Scrapbook Challenges Blog Hop!

It's blog hop time at Scrapbook Challenges! Yippee! I love blog hops, all the inspiration.... So, if you're just stopping by, hop over to Pamela's blog to join in all the fun! If you just came from Jackie's blog you're right on track, so let's get started! First, here is the sketch we all used:
and my example:
Every year, the weekend before Christmas Santa rides through our little town in the bucket of the firetruck! He goes right past our street, my youngest looks forward to it every year! I used a Fancy Pants stamp and embossing tinsel to make the "swirl" and jazz up my plain chipboard letters!
So, wanna play along? Here is what you can win:

 Leave a comment on all the blogs in the hop, to be entered to win the new Spring Market collection from Webster's Pages, including chipboard buttons and twine.  
PLUS:
If you do a layout based on the sketch, you will be entered to win the Be Mine collection from Echo Park Paper Company.  

For inviting people to join the group, you will be entered to win a collection of adhesive from Helmar.

One new member over the weekend will be entered to win some new stamps from Unity and Webster's Pages.

Your next stop is Shelley's blog. Have fun!
