GRINCH GAME Begins Today with a HOP

GOOD morning fellow residents of Who-ville!

Welcome to another Creative Vision Design Team Themed Blog Hop. The hop today is VERY special because it is the team's final hop. PLUS we have a guest designer on the company blog PLUS Laura Lou Who goes LIVE with THING 1 and Whoville ACTION NEWS saturday 12-3-11 to announce the first Grinch sighting! Yes the GRINCH GAME begins TODAY!!

FIRST let's start the hop with our Guest Designer Lisa Fowler. Lisa won a guest designer spot on our last blog hop. Using the $10.00 gift certificate that came with the GD spot she purchased my JINGLE JANGLE set. Here is what she said and created for us!

"Thank you so much for letting me share my creations on your blog as a Guest Designer! I'm a homeschool mom and also work part time--and try to fit some craft time in everyday! I'm having so much fun with the Jingle Jangle stamp set that I got just for hopping along in the November blog hop. I was so inspired by all the Design Team's creations, the theme of the hop that day was tags, so the first item I made with my new stamp set was a tag. I just love this little Santa! I popped his head up and added flock to his beard and trim. I smile every time I see him. Then I made a card using the reindeer. The look on that reindeer's face just cracks me up! I think I probably get the same look when I'm putting up our Christmas lights! I have so many more ideas for this stamp set, I can't wait to get them done! Thanks, Laura, for the blog hop prize!"

What a great job Lisa did! Are these cute or what??

On with the hop...

Please visit the rest of the DT and show them some love, this is their last hop.

When you are done visiting the blogs, come back to play our GRINCH GAME!

_____________________________The Game Begins Here__________________________

 

Did you know The Grinch lives on snowy Mount Crumpit, a mountain north of friendly Who-ville. The Grinch keeps to himself, living only with his dog, Max. Characterized as having a heart "two sizes too small," the Grinch becomes annoyed by the sounds of Happy Who-Stampers.

BUT one Who-Stamper in particular bothered him more than any other, Laura Lou Who. The noise from her studio annoyed the Grinch all year long. It was a constant racket - with all her stamp, stamp, stamping.

The Grinch could take it no more. With an evil smile on his face he gathered his thoughts, and laid out a plan. He hitched up his sleigh and was soon on his Grinch Grinchy way.......

2011 GRINCH GAME RULES:

OBJECT: To help locate and capture the Grinch and recover all stolen property from Laura Lou Who's Stamp Studio.
