High Hopes 100th Challenge Blog Hop

It's time for High Hopes' 100th Challenge!!

To celebrate, we are having a Blog Hop
complete with lots of prizes!

The challenge this week is "Anything Goes"

You should have arrived from Jeanne's Blog
If you haven't... you will want to start back at the
High Hopes Blog so you don't miss any stops along the way.

For my 100th Celebration Card I am using
"Miss Marissa"
She is an oldie but a goodie from the original
High Hopes catalogue by artist Tony De Marco

She fits perfectly on my side step card!!

I also am using
"Flop Eared Rabbit,
Cute Posey
and
"Somebunny Loves You"
sentiment


As you hop from stop to stop, make sure to leave
comments because there is candy along the way.

The 1st prize is $100 worth of High Hopes Stamps!!
The 2nd prize is $50 worth of High Hopes stamps!!
And the 3rd and 4th prizes will each receive
$25 worth of High Hopes stamps!!

The winners may choose unmounted stamps or
cling mounted stamps only.

In order to have a chance to win, you must leave a
comment on each blog along the hop!!

The hop will remain open 12:00pm (noon)
EST Monday, Jan 17th
And the winner will be announced next Tuesday.

You may also notice that we have a few special guests
joining us for this challenge!! A few of our Original Divas
have returned for this special event.
Be sure to give them a big "Hello"

From here you will hop to one
of our fabulous original Diva's
Katharina Frei

I hope you enjoy the hop....
