Sew Many Cards Blog Hop



Welcome to the first Sew Many Cards Blog Hop of 2010! It's new release day and there are lots of fun new images. Along the hop you will see them all as each DT member has a different one.

You should have arrived from Kym's wonderful blog, if that was not where you came from you will want to start this hop from the top! Be sure to head back over to the Sew Many Cards Blog and start this hop from the beginning.

I got to work with Olivia, check out how cute this owl is cracking out of her egg:


All my paper is by Stampin Up, except my white base. I use Georgia Pacific White paper. I paper pieced her shell because a cutie like this needs a fancy shell, don't you think? Why leave it white! LOL!

Paper piecing a digi image is simple, just print the image on the pattern paper and cut out what you need!

Our wonderful sponsor for this month's challenge is Randa Clay's Doodle Beans:



"Doodle Beans Digital Stamps has a growing number of stamps for use in card making, crafts and scrapbooking. The images are unique and fun, and designer Randa Clay hopes you'll find them to be useful for all kinds of occasions and projects!"

Doodle Beans is offering a great prize package this week of a $25 prize package which consists of a $10 Gift Certificate to the Doodle Bean store and a $15 Gift Certificate to Amazon.com

Be sure to hop onto all the blogs in this hop today for a chance to win. In order to win any of the prizes you must leave a comment on everyone's blog.

I will draw a winner randomly from my blog on Jan 12 and you can win the image I got to work with.

So, if you did not start at the top of the hop be sure to go to the Sew Many Cards blog and start there. Remember leave a message for everyone!

If you are on the right track then you will want to continue on this fabulous fun hop and hop on over to the fabulous Mary D.
