It's Touchy-Feely Friday at 365 cards
The challenge is to incorporate 3 different methods of adding texture to a card. Using products like Stickles or Liquid Pearls will be perfect, since those definitely add texture/dimension. People have until midnight on Saturday the 28th to complete the challenge. Everyone who enters the challenge will be entered into a random drawing for a CROP STOP Gift Certificate (woohoooo!!!), which will take place on Sunday.

Our BLOG HOP winner is............
Congrats Gina!!!!! Please email us (at cropstop@cropstop.com) to get to you a $15 gift certificate to our store!!!! And with free shipping of dies that goes a long way!
Are you ready for St. Patrick's Day festivities?
March 17th is just around the corner and we have the die cuts you need!
Let's start talking about the Quickutz revolution dies that are perfect for St. Patrick's Day! These Dies are 4x4.
IMPORTANT NOTE: All these dies are 20% off manufacturer prices right now at CropStop plus you can use our March coupon for 10% off a $30 purchase. Check out our message board or newsletter for more information about that coupon!
As you can see the first two images have multiple dies, that means that all those dies are in one 4x4 wafer die. You get 1 4x4 die cut that includes these images in it.
This first one is one of my favorite ones this Spring, because it can be used for St. Patrick's day cards and LOs or for anything. I can see that cute rainbow on top of a pot of gold... or behind a tree as a "cheer you up" card. Can you see it? it is so versatile!
And then you come to this revolution die! This screams St. Patrick's Day PARTY! Can you imagine cutting up that cute hat and putting it on top of some stamped images (how about some Tilda's?) or even on top of some of the members of your family in your scrapbook!
These last two are revolution dies too, but notice there is only one image per die cut wafer, so that means these are HUGE die cuts, yummy 4x4 die cuts for you to play with!
This is the pot of gold that I was talking about when I mentioned that cute rainbow!!! Isn't it just a perfect match?!
And of course the Shamrock! This one would make an awesome cluster w/ it's companion on the above set and w/ the singlekutz 2x2 die cut. Shamrock are just so gorgeous in clusters of different sizes!

Winner of the Blog hop!
We haven't forgotten, it's just I am having an issue checking out how to see in which order people click the follow button, so I can have a list of people... long story short... we will have a winner on Sunday!!!!
We have a new Creative Team Gal!
Help us welcome Elisabeth to our CropStop Creative Team. I know many of you have already seen her work and chatted with her on the boards. (If you are NOT a member of our Gallery or board, what are you waiting for? We have tons of challenges, tutorials, classes and we like to gossip... friendly gossip... we even talk about the Royal families!)
Elisabeth will be hosting the BossKut Banter with ideas and inspiration from BossKut dies and the Gazelle. All BossKut dies work in the Cuttlebug and the QuicKutz Revolution so there is no excuse!
Elisabeth Helsing lives on the east coast of Sweden. She started scrapbooking almost 3 years ago after attending a crop. Before scrapping she was an avid china painter and jewellery maker!
Elisabeth loves to make her own embellishments from scratch using whatever she can find.
Expect to see plenty of work and ideas with distress inks, crackle paint or chalks as well as ribbons and lace, pearls, UTEE and Alcohol Inks!
Let Elisabeth help you to try new things, new techniques and experiment with things you never thought you could do!
Welcome Elisabeth it sure is nice to have you here!
And of course, we made her do a challenge for us.... so want to see Elisabeth's challenge? Well I can tell you the awesome title of the challenge.... The Soundtrack of My Life (or Our Lives, if it suits better!) you can read more about the challenge on our CropStop's board.
