Northern Lights : 7DS Christmas HOP

Ahhhhh --- man! I get to promote 7 Dots Studio today >>> which is near and dear to my heart. I love Tusia & the whole 7DS team, I am honored each & every time I turn in a new paper line... I give that team the building blocks & they turn around and create GORGEOUS completely incredible art pieces with them.

Today you get the chance to hop around youtube & check out loads of inspiration INCLUDING tutorials on creating the projects... AND the opportunity to win prizes. Seems like a win-Win-WIN to me :)

The object was to create a Christmas project with any of the amazing 7DS collections around.

You can start the hop HERE
