Blog Hop @ In A Scrap Creations...

It's our first blog hop at IASC. We are very excited about it because it's not just for our regular release but we're also doing a OWH preview. 


OWH stands for Operation Write Home The design team has created cards for the troops to use to send back to their families when they are deployed. 


Here is my card:



This will be sent to OWH to be distributed to the troops abroad. There are specific guidelines you need to follow if you want to join us in making cards for the troops.  You will find them here.

We'd love it if you created our own card and/or cards to ship to OWH. If you do, please post it on your blog and link it in the comment section of the post on the IASC blog.   

Also, we are doing our IASC release. This month is "Silly Owls"...the set is $3 and you get 6 images (that's only 50 cents each)...these are pre-coloured and ready to use for your quick card needs. You will find them listed here in the store.  School is ending in a month or so and you'll need those grad cards for your graduating students, whether it's from JK or High School or Post-secondary education...check out what the rest of the design team has created.


Hop through the list and comment on each blog.
You will be entered into the random draw for the Silly Owls set.
Thanks for hopping!
You have till May 15th Midnight EST to post your comment to win!

This is my project from the newest release...sorry for the not so great photo...I had to take it with my cell phone (thank goodness for camera phones!). The batteries in my camera died this week! :(



I cut the bag with my Cricut. It is a shower favour...it holds little packages of kleenex. I'm thinking this little bag will be making an appearance a lot. This was the first time I used it. It's a simple project but I wanted the cute little pregnant girl to be the focus of the favour.

REVEAL DAY at CDS and CIC#26 Chalelnge

It's reveal day at Clear Dollar Stamps


I just love this set! You have to check out the CDS store later on today once the store has been updated...you need to purchase this set (I will be showcasing more cards this month!). It is SO cute!

For my card, I actually merged 3 images to make this one image for the card. The bubble paper and the blue flowers (behind the image) are two of the matching digital papers!  The sentiment is from an old Hanna Stamps set...it says "A clean house is a sign of a lazy stamper"! :D I thought it was fitting for this image!

Thanks for another SPECTACULAR set Laurie! I LOVE it!

*****

This is my CIC#26 Challenge card...I decided to try my hand at a digital card...I'm loving my PSE program! My batteries died in my camera so I needed a quick solution and the camera on my cell phone isn't that great (I learned that last week).  

Here is my card...using BLING is the challenge!

Imagine...


I was cleaning out my files tonight and I came across this...I think it's beautiful! It's one of my favorite songs...although I don't watch Glee, this is an extraordinary version of this classic tune!
