Welcome to The Paper Variety's one year anniversary celebration! This week it's all about our "favorite things"! TPV is hosting 5 daily challenges of our favorite things and awarding 5 great prizes to 5 lucky random winners. We hope you'll play along with us each day!!

We begin today with a fun blog hop and our 1st challenge which is sponsored by My Favorite Things stamps

If you've reached me from Cassandra's blog, you're in the right place! If not, you'll want to go back to The Paper Variety so you can begin in the right spot. Be sure to visit all 12 designers on this hop to be inspired by all their lovely creations using MFT stamps and also many of them/us have blog candy for you, too! .

Our first of 5 challenges is to create a paper project including stamps - clear stamps, rubber stamps, image stamps, sentiment stamps. My Favorite Things stamps is awarding a random challenge winner with a $25 gift voucher to their store!

You'll have until Tuesday noon to enter your project here
for a chance at the voucher prize.

My Favorite Things also generously provided the entire TPV DT with stamps to use on our projects. Thank you, MFT!

The Digi Stamp was great to work with on a card. I used watercolour pencils and loved how the cupcake had so many layers hence the amount of colours i used on the design.

Before you go on to the next hop stop, I have some blog candy to giveaway!

To be eligable for this blog candy, you just have to leave a comment on this post. But if you like my blog- become a follower and pop back at a later date.You needn't enter a project at TPV to win my blog candy although I do hope you decide to join the challenge, you could win a $25 My Favorite Things stamps gift certificate!



Dont forget, there will be other challenges and prizes daily until Sunday at TPV inspiring you to use your favorite things! There's also a giveaway on the TPV facebook page so don't miss that! Join in the fun! :)


Now hop on over to Hannah's to see her beautiful project created with MFT stamps!
