There She Goes Day Two...an Alphabet Set For YOU!!

Here we are at day two of this month's There She Goes release, and I am still excited, how about you??!! Today we are previewing the second set of this release, AtoZ and 123. Want a chance to win this set? Comment on all of the Trendsetter's Blogs on their AtoZ sneak peek post, come back here and add your name to the Mister Linky. You do not have to have a blog to play along, you can also use the URL of your favorite online craft gallery! As with yesterday, the hop started at Jessica's blog, so head back there to get started!!
I have to admit, when I saw this set from There She Goes, I was a little scared. You see, alphabet sets and I don't get along. Even if they are FABULOUS!! This new TSG AtoZ set is exactly that, FABULOUS, but I just have the hardest time working with them. I sat and thought and though about what to do, and started several cards that ended up in the trash. Finally, I had to get up and walk away from my table. All of a sudden, I remembered this paper cube that I have had for 7yrs, yep SEVEN...and I knew exactly what I wanted to do!! I took the cube(which I know people are going to ask and no, I have no clue where it came from or where to buy one. I bought mine off a fellow SU demonstrator and I have no clue where she got them, sorry) and stamped my letters on the outside of it. I placed the letters side by side on the grid line block and used Riding Hood Red, Ballet Blue, Wild Wasabi, and Pumpkin Pie ink on them. I then tied a bow with Riding Hood Red ribbon and made a small card to go along with it. The DP is from K&Co. Hopscotch stack. I think this would make an adorable and very easy teacher gift, don't you?
Okay, that is it for me now....off to Joanne's blog!! Thanks for stopping by!!
Jessie-that's me!!

    Very cute project!

    I usually don't like ABC sets...they are hard to use. But I love what you did with that cube!! May have to take the plunge!
