sneak peek : day one

Howdy and welcome to the CHA-Winter 2011 sneak peeks for Karen Foster Design.  Get comfy because I have a lot to share with you today. I am just as anxious as you are to see all the projects.  Design team members have not shared any sneak peeks amongst the team yet either.   I can't wait to see all the cool projects and papers in action. 

Today Karen Foster Design will be debuting at the upcoming CHA Winter show. To celebrate this release the Design Team will be hosting a giveaway contest on our blogs where you can enter to win one of FOUR fabulous prize packages each valued at more than $350! 

To enter your name in the drawing all you need to do is leave a comment on this blog post. You don’t need to comment on every blog post to win, but you can increase your chances of winning by leaving comments on each of the Design Team member’s blogs every day this week. Enter up to once per day per blog! As always, Karen Foster Design welcomes international entries.  Winners will be posted here on Monday, January 24, 2011.

To add to the excitement, winners will be chosen in two ways.  On Saturday, all the comments received on all of the blogs will be combined and two winners will be chosen at random.

In addition, two of the prizes will be hidden on the blog posts – not even the Design Team know where they are! On Saturday, KFD management will notify the team members with the hidden prizes where they are located and then a winner will be selected at random from just the comments on that particular post. So the more you comment, the better your chance of winning, since you never know where those two prize packages are hidden!

Today we will be showing you projects made with four of the new themed collections – Baby Boy, Baby Girl, Bowling, and Freshwater Fishing.

The bowling set brought back a flood of memories ---- the retro bowling shirt and rental shoes.   I bowled about 25 years of my life and have many, many wondramous memories of my days at the bowling center.  My family made and have remained friends with many bowling partners through the years. My youth was consumed carrying a ball, bag and shoes and knocking down as many pins as we could.  

 

 

 

Although I don't really fish [not yet, but I'm sure with my cub scouting, it is only a matter of time], I fell in love with this line, too.   I loooooooove the fishy stamp paper, the brads and charms.  The silver charms can easily be altered with some chalk ink as seen below. 

Don’t forget to leave a comment on this post to be entered in the giveaway contest. Then visit the rest of the Design Team blogs for lots more inspiration and for additional chances to win.
