Anybody Want to Go on a Road Trip?

Some of you might wonder why I haven’t been posting on my blog for the past two weeks. It is, after all, not like me to go a day without posting and certainly not two weeks. I took a little road trip. Well, if you call 4,300 miles in 12 states a LITTLE road trip. I had hoped to post to my blog while I was traveling, but my laptop didn’t seem to cooperate with me, hence my absence.

I missed you!!!

My travels took me to the mountains – both the Appalachian mountains in the Virginias and the Rockies in Colorado. I love mountains!

I also love the beach, even if I didn’t get to go there on this road trip. Instead, I took some cute summer/beach supplies and created this card while I traveled.




The image I used is called Flip Flop. It is a Stitchy Stamps digital image.




Stitchy Stamps has been the sponsor for this week’s Sew Many Challenge.






I hope you played along, creating a Christmas project for the challenge. I know you would love to win the prize that Stitch, the owner of Stitchy Stamps, graciously donated for the lucky winner. It’s 3 Free Digi stamps of winners choice from the Stitchy Bears Store. Isn’t that awesome!?!?!?

SPONSOR BLURB:

Hi Everyone, my name is Stitchy and I create under the name Stitchy Stamps...I have been creating digital images for designers for almost a year now and try to learn something new everyday...I started out in paint shop pro about 8 years ago and started making digital scrap kits...then I was introduced to the wonderful world of paper crafts and card designing...like I said, learning new everyday, the rest is history...I can't draw enough to keep me satisfied anymore lol...

Living in a small town in upstate New York, tucked away where cable doesn't even go...friends are far and few between...But being on the internet for the past 10 years, I have gathered quite a few from around the world...Just like I learn something new everyday, I also try to meet someone new every day too...

Thank you Angela and Company for allowing me to sponsor for you...I am truly honored...



I’m sure most of you have already created your Christmas project for Sew Many Challenges, but if you haven’t, please hurry. Time is running out. The challenge ends today. You can purchase your Sew Many Cards digital image at the Sew Many Cards store.

And be sure to come back to my blog tomorrow. I’ll be posting my creation for the new Sew Many Challenges project.
