However, you aren't going to want to miss this incredible blog hop, so be sure to go to the Sew Many Challenges Blog to begin at the beginning. (*wink *wink... be sure to leave comments along the way on the blog hop. There will be prizes for randomly selected individuals.)

Here's my card for the SMC Three's a Charm Blog Hop:

Sew Many Cards Donkey Behind Cactus


I wanted to make it look like the adorable little donkey really is behind the cactus, so I printed ot two images and created a layered look, with the cactus popped up off of the main image.

In fact, I popped two other layers, too, to give the card lots of dimension.

I think a cactus in bloom is absolutely gorgeous, so I added some tiny paper flowers to the cactus on my card, using some of these teeny tiny brads that I am so fond of. (Three flowers = THREE'S A CHARM!)
Speaking of which, it's time to send you on your way to the next blog on the Sew Many Cards THREE'S A CHARM Blog Hop. Hop on over to my online friend Lorie's blog and be prepared to be WOW'ed! She is AMAZING!!! Oh, and be sure to leave a comment along the way!
