Your posts must include at least one over all finished photo, one detail photo, a product list with appropriate working links to our online store and a short description on how you completed the project. Keep in mind occasionally you may be asked to follow certain criteria, ie; using a given product, following a theme, or creating for the season. We may also request an additional post in which case you would only be asked to share a project as inspiration with working links to the appropriate stamps. No need for tutorials or step by steps on inspiration posts. It is important you possess the necessary skills to photograph your projects well.

Store Tour - Winners!

Happy Saturday stampers :) Today I've got a list of WINNERS from the Mary Vogel Lozinak blog hop/link up... But first I have a video to show you!!

Our stamps here at Viva Las Vegastamps! are proudly made by hand in America.. actually in Las Vegas, NV! I gather and design stamps from various places (artists, old books, copyright free images) and pile them into (what I hope are) themed boards for your stamping goodness. Then the plates are sent off in digital format to an engraver.. our plates are returned in hard copy. We catalog them in the factory.. which is also where we press them! Then the stamps are mounted and indexed.. and displayed for sale! All in the US.

So we may be starting at the "end" but I think it's really best. Below is a video of about 1/3rd of the store. I thought it best to show in portions as it literally takes hours to see the place. Here is this portion.. in 7 minutes :)

Now for the winners...

Thank you so much for your participation! Some wonderful wonderful pieces were presented and it was such a joy going through all the links and checking out all the pieces.

So here is a list of the WINNERS from the hop!! If your name is on the list keep a lookout on that designer's blog for your coupon collecting information!
