Happy Veteran's Day!

First I want to wish all our veteran's a Happy Veteran's Day and say a great big thank you to both our veterans and our current military personnel and their families! We live in a great country because of your service. I also want to share this awesome new digi stamp that Angela made in honor of our vets.

Naughty or Nice -- Sew Many Cards Challenge # 12

Good Tuesday morning! It's challenge time again at Sew Many Cards. This week's challenge is to make a Christmas card or paper craft project using bows, as well as, a Sewn Together image. Since I couldn't make a decent bow yesterday, I used these cute bow brads from Paperwishes. I love this Morty image. Since I have young kids, the "naughty/nice" list is a big topic of discussion at my house this time of year. Please check out all the terrific projects from my fellow design team members at the Sew Many Cards blog or at Sew Many Cards Ning, and remember the deadline to enter is midnight (est) Monday, November 16. Hope you have a chance to play with us this week. God bless you!

Sew Many Cards November Release Party

It's finally here! After a week of sneak peeks, scavenger hunts, and blog hops, Angela is ready to reveal her new images. My assignment for the release party was the November Value Pack. This a super deal. You get 6 digi stamps (Donkey with a turkey, leaf, acron, pie, applels, and a crow) for only $6. Angela ask me to create something other than a card using this pack. I remembered seeing a very elegant table runner in a craft magazine about a month ago. The letters were gold embossed, and it was tied together with gold cord. Although I loved the look, I knew it would never work with my wild bunch. I just don't think my kids are quiet ready for gold embossing, china, and crystal. YIKES! So I decide to try a less formal verison for the release party. It was a lot easier than I thought it would be, and you can adapt it to fit many different occassions -- birthday parties, Christmas, baby showers, etc. Here's the recipe:

Cut cs into 4 X 6 rectangles (you'll need one for each letter and image)

Cut the same number of 3 1/2 X 5 1/2 rectangles from pp

Cut out letters (I used my Cricut with the Storybook cart)

Color image(s)

Glue layers and emblish with smaller images

Punch two holes into each side of the cs

Thread ribbon thru holes and tie

Be sure and check out all the super new images and the design teams' terrific creations at the Sew Many Cards blog and at our Release Party Spot. Thanks so much for playing along with us this week. God bless.

Sew Many Cards Challenge # 11

Hey guys! Happy Tuesday! It's challenge time again at Sew Many Cards. This week challenge is to create a card or other paper craft project using stitching along with a Sewn Together image. Since I hate to sew (sorry Angela), my stitching is faux, but you can also use a machine or hand stitch your creation. You can check out Angela's blog for lots of inspiration from my fellow design team members and for this week's free digi stamp. The deadline to enter is midnight, Monday, November 9. Hope you can play with us this week. God bless!
