Some Odd Girl‘s Fond Farewell blog hop

farewell-hop-graphic

Its almost the end of this term at Some Odd Girl and to celebrate the wonderful term with some fabulous girls we are having a hop featuring everyone’s 3 favorite projects from the term. Each stop will have a digi from one of those creations to give away and a big prize on the Some Odd Girl blog. Its also where you’ll find our full hop list, just sayin.

Before I show you my 3 fav projects from the term I have to say that spending the last year with these girls has been amazing! We’ve been like a family, ups & downs, not seeing eye to eye, sharing secrets, celebrating good times and hugs in the not so good times. These girls have supported me in a very tough time personally since Some Odd Girl opened over 5 years ago now and I know I’ve said thank you for their support before but I really can’t adequately express how much I love and cherish them for it. The next term is going to be different and to the girls that have been with me one term or a few I will miss you amazingly much having you with us! I feel like we’ve become great friends so you’d better not be a stranger afterwards, I will stalk you 😉

Before I get myself all teared up I really should show you my 3 fav projects. Click on the links to see more about them and some close up pics.

 

Witchy Mae Black & White Card

Witchy-Mae-by-Kristy-Dalman-Some-Odd-Girl2

This card tops my favs for a few reasons. First, I really had fun with the black and white coloring on the grey toned paper, I NEED to do that again; Secondly the airbrush on the transparency card base was an idea that actually worked, much to my delight and surprise; Third, star vellum shaker!

 

Yeti Aurora Borealis card

Yeti-Home-Kristy-SN

Apparently I’m very impressed with my own ingenuity because this card is another fav for that very reason. The background on this card was a practice in “I wonder if this will actually work…”, and it did! Another experiment with the airbrush… I really need to do some more!

 

Apple Frame & Card

Honeycrisp Apple Card and Frame set by Kristy Dalman

Last up is my birthday gift for my bestie Leah. I heart her to tiny pieces and this was my way of showing it this year. I am really in love with how the coloring turned out on the apple (I was going for a realistic honeycrisp, go see close ups in the link), it really was a labor of love.

 

Well there you have it, my 3 favs for the term! For my stop on the hop I am giving away to a commenter, you can comment thru March 31st, the digi stamp Witchy Mae. Maybe you’ll have as much fun coloring her as I did! Make sure to comment on our main blog and all the stops for lots of chances to win!

Because I can, I am going to also share a 20% off your entire order coupon for the duration of the hop, use coupon code FONDFAREWELL to take advantage 🙂
