It's QKR Monday . . .

Once again, it's QKR Monday! I hope you came by over the weekend to participate in the QKR Stampede Frosty in July Blog Hop. All of the projects created by the design team members were Christmas or winter themed and were absolutely spectacular!!! If you missed the Hop, there's still time to get in on it and be eligible for a prize--a $25 gift certificate (and free shipping)--to be used at the QKR Stampede store. If you're interested in participating in the Hop (and who wouldn't love a chance at some free stamps?), go here for the details. Be sure to read to the end of this post for two special QKR Stampede announcements!

In keeping with the Christmas Blog Hop theme, today's project uses the QKR Stampede The Reason (#8712) stamp with the Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge 79 (SSSC79). As you can see with this project, this stamp image works very well on its own as a focal image, and is perfect, of course, for the sentiment on the inside of your hand-stamped Christmas cards.

QKR STAMPEDE SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENTS:  Every Monday in August, QKR Stampede will have a random drawing from its list of Facebook friends/fans/"likers". The person whose name is drawn will win a free QKR Stampede stamp of their choice! If you're not already a friend/fan/"liker" of QKR Stampede on Facebook, go here today so that you have a chance to win a free stamp of your choosing. Good luck!!

Do you already own QKR Stampede stamps and have a wish list of other stamp images you would like to own? Interested in an easy way to earn some free stamps? QKR Stampede will be participating in its first convention, in Boise, Idaho, the weekend of September 24 and 25, and is in need of card fronts for its display boards. Using only your QKR Stampede stamps**, create a card front (or card fronts), and mail them to the attention of Maribeth Douglas at QKR Stampede, 19522 High Park Road, Cedaredge, CO 81413. In return, you will receive one (1) free stamp image per card front mailed. Now, isn't that an easy way to get some free rubber??? (**In the absence of a particular sentiment you may want to use on your card, you can either computer-generate or handwrite the sentiment; you CANNOT, however, use stamp images from other companies on these cards as they would not be QKR Stampede images and would expose the company to copyright issues. You can use any papers, inks, and embellishments of your choosing.) Thanks for stopping by and visiting today; your visits and comments are greatly appreciated! Have a terrific day!!!!
