Xyron, Little Yellow Bicycle and May Arts Day Two - and a Giveaway!

Welcome to Day Two of the Xyron, Little Yellow Bicycle (LYB), May Arts blog hop!  What a fantastic combination of products - we are excited to share more great project ideas with you today.

Denise Hahn was so inspired by the goodies she received that she created three super cool projects - a ribbon garland, a bud vase and an accordion album. She shares a video tutorial for the accordion album on her blog today - head on over to see more of these great projects!

We are crazy about this altered bird house from Liz Qualman! Her use of May Arts plaid ruffled ribbon for detailing around the roof adds the perfect touch to her project.  Head on over to her blog to see just how she did it!

The May Arts blog and Little Yellow Bicycle blog are featuring projects all week long using Xyron - AND all three blogs are hosting giveaways each day.  Stop by both and get inspired!
We are giving away a Xyron Mega Runner every day this week - to enter simply leave a comment here on the blog.  The winner will be announced on the Xyron Facebook Page on Wednesday.  Good luck!

    Denise outdid herself today. I just love the idea of her ribbon bunting. You could decorate in your craft room or maybe a window in the house and keep changing it out as you wanted to use the ribbon so that it never stayed the same. Between the three blogs today...Little Yellow Bicycle, May Arts and Xyron...there is loads of inspiration.
