Blog Hop Time Again

It's that time again for New Releases & Blog Hop at Sew Many Challenges. There is so much to See I don't know where to start. First off if you came here from  Mari then your on the right track. If not you will want to go and start at the SMC Challenge Blog . There is a little game going on you will want to collect all the differnt phrases at each stop of the hop. Don't miss any it will give you a sneak peek about next week.

  On to my project I had the pleasure of using "Miki baking with butter & eggs"

   

   Along  with Miki I asked Angela for Recipie cards. She came up with some really cute ones. Not only are they blank in the corner, she made a set with each one of the Miki images in the corner. I had printed all the images out USING THE contact feature. That makes the image small enough for the square. I colored all the images with copics. I made four of each card to place in the pocket. I also sponged around the corners of each image to make them stand out. The background paper is from my stach. I also had the buttons for the front of the card. I printed MIKI out four times. I use differnt pieces from each one in order to pop up differnt areas to differnt heights.

  Don't forget to leave a comment in order to win the image I used. The winner will be choosen from all the comments left during the hop. For a chance at all the images be sure and leave comments on each and every stop. Don't forget to look for that special word or two to make a statement about something special coming up.  Your next stop on the hop is at  Juelmarie. She has some great stuff for you to see. So have fun and don't forget that comment.

Also while out and about don't forget this week's freebie. It is only around for a short time.

                                                        It's called "LOVE CUPCAKE"

To be sure and get the freebie every week sign up for the weekly news letter. That way it will show up in your e-mail box. No muss no fuss. And always a new image to play with. Have a great week end and enjoy the hop.
