Tiddly Inks Birthday Treasure Hunt and Blog Hop


Welcome to the Tiddly Inks Treasure Hunt bloghop. We are kicking off Tiddly Ink’s first birthday celebration and I am so glad you joined us to hunt for inspiration and goodies. 
If you came from Femke’s blog then you are at the correct spot. If not, you might want to go back to the Challenge Blog and start hopping THERE. You might miss some of the prizes that are hidden around the hop if you don’t start at the beginning. :) 
My creation today features Tiddly Inks’s new image' Geekatude'.
I coloured him with Copics and Prismacolor pencils.
As soon as I saw this cute character I knew I wanted to make one of these backpacks I saw forever ago!  It would be the perfect little gift bag to fill with goodies for going back to school!  - I know, I am working well ahead of myself!
I found a tutorial over on Splitcoast Stampers which uses a template, however the template was way too small to fit this little cutie on and I couldn't work out how to enlarge it so I drew my own based on the shape of the template.  I used my Martha Stewart scoreboard which was a huge help!
 Christy created about 20 new images for her birthday celebration and you can find the rest of the images HERE.




 I am entering my backpack into the following challenges
ABC challenge ~ t is for trouble (now doesn't he look mischievous?)
The Tuesday Throwdown ~ to add brads or eyelets ( I used eyelets)
Incy Wincy challenges ~ buttons and bows

 Just a little reminder that Tiddly Inks will be having a sale May 1-3 to celebrate it’s first birthday. If you are interested, visit the SHOP and then plan to create a fun project for the challenges or the next blog hop on May 10.
On May 10, Tiddly Inks will hold another blog hop that is open to everyone. You can check out the details on Christy’s blog HERE. It will be part of TI’s fun birthday party celebration and the special prize for the that blog hop will be a chance to win a digital stamp customized and designed for you.

From here you will want to hop over to Caz's Blog to continue the hop!


Thanks so much for hopping in our Treasure Hunt. I hope you enjoyed seeing a lot of new images, some beautiful cards and visiting with our special guests and regular designers.
Have a fabulous weekend!
