I am super excited to participating in my very first blog hop. You ask what a blog hop is... well several paper crafters and scrapbookers get together pick a day to post projects on a theme. Operation Write Home (OWH) is hosting a Memorial Day blog hop with over a hundred blogs participating. The theme is Miss You cards - patriotic. Want to get this blog hop started, click on the following link to be brought to the next blog in the blog roll of designers. Each designer will have a link set up that will just keep moving you through the chain.
Next Person on the Blog Hop: Shemaine, Scraptastic Designs

What a great cause! Thanks for sharing the link! Great cards!
Both your cards are wonderful, but I especially love the layout and colors in the rosette card. Excellent work!
Your rosette card gives such a vintage feel - I love it. Good job!
Nice cards!
These both turned out really nice. I love the kraft with the deeper red and blue shades. It give such a nice vintage feel and the rosettes are great too.
Beautiful cards. Thank you for spreading the word about Operation Write Home!
I am loving the rosette you made! great cards! they are both wonderful! :)
I am in love with both of your cards! Thank you so much for sharing your ideas! Best wishes!
Wow! These cards are STUNNING! Congrats on the huge milestone in your support of OWH!
Great cards! Love the birdie on the one and the paper rosette on the other!
I love both of your cards. I try to do collage (but so far, not doing well) so I particularly like your bird card. And the rosette on the second card is fabulous! Thanks for the inspiration.
Gorgeous cards! Love the first one.
Both your cards have such great color combinations, but I must say I like the first one the best. Probably because it has a masculine feel and I'm ALWAYS on the lookout for anything for those guys! You've been CASE'd!
oh wow!!!!! i love your cards -- especially teh second one! very creative way of using the pearls
Stasia,
I love your collaged style to your artwork...lovely! Blessings!

nice cards! love the music and bird, and even the font on the first one! and the pearls, rosette and holmes quote on the second one! thanks!
Both of your cards are very nice, but I have to admit to prefering the large red rossette! You've used a very hip trend to create a beautiful card.
Wonderful cards! I'm glad you could join us for your first blog hop.
