A Jillian Vance Design is honored to be a part of the Seasons Givings Blog Hop, this is the 4th year for the Seasons Givings Hop and my 3rd year hopping with them. I thank you for visiting this blog through out the year and this is our BIG THANK YOU hop! Thank you for checking out my design team blog, each day and being inspired throughout the year! If you aren't a follower please subscribe!
I am Jillian Vance, founder of A Jillian Vance Design. When I was age 10, I wanted to make some money to purchase an iPod, so I became a card maker and sold them at my mom's salon. At 11 years old, started designing my own stamps and dies because I couldn't find just the right ones I wanted to use. That was 5 years ago! HARD TO BELIEVE!!! In August of this year, we opened a store front in the historic downtown of Mount Vernon Ohio and INK Responsibly came to life once again ~ that was the name of my little corner store in my mom's salon.
I started my personal blog: Princes and the Paper in March of 2010 and the rest is history! (check it out, I have a darling card for you!)
This A Jillian Vance Design blog is my design team inspiration blog.
My Hoop it Up Die Set includes the Embroidery Hoop (released May 2015) which I used for the ring (Thank you to Debbie from Texas for suggesting we needed a Diamond for our Hoop!) So then I created the Dazzling Diamond Die Set complete with the 4 prong setting die to make a beautiful Engagement Ring! Please enjoy my video on this card.
