Hippity hippity hop-hop! :-) (That's the sound of you a-hopping around all the great blogs today!)Welcome hoppers!
If you are new reader... WELCOME! Sit down, stay a while, when you've had enough, hop on (there is a CRAZY amount of talent in this blog hop... soak it up!)
If you are an old reader (not old like, old, just old like, seasoned to know what in the world I may be talking about here... maybe... then feel free to join in the hop! It's fun! Hop-hop-hop around!)
So, are you ready to see my cards? Sure you are. That's IS what you came here for after all. :-) I made two... one with a "Red White & Blue" color scheme and another that I just like.


I am excited to be involved in this hop because I 1.) have never done a Blog Hop before and B.) Have never contributed to Cards for Heroes before. This is all very new for me and I am thrilled to be a part of it! It was a lot of fun to work on these projects KNOWING that instead of sitting in a box in my craft room they are going to be USED for something very special. I encourage you all to make a card (or 10!) to forward on to Cards for Heroes... you will love knowing that your card will be VERY appreciated... perhaps more than you think. :-)
Ok hoppers... are you ready for the next blog to hop off to? Let me just say, I enjoyed having you hop to my blog. Have fun hopping around today... I hope you find a lot of inspiration for your own cards and that you have a Happy Memorial Day!
The next stop on the hop is Rebecca. She's got some really cute cards up so be sure to look around a bit! :-)

NOTE: If you have come here by accident (a happy accident, I hope!) you may want to click HERE to go back to the start of the blog hop; the "top of the hop" if you will. :-)
*** This blog hop was organized by Cards for Heroes; a non-profit organization that has sent over 140,000 cards overseas to servicemen and women. Two types of cards are sent; blank cards which they can write home on, and cards with words of encouragement and gratitude inside. If you are interested in donating cards to this cause go to their main site (http://cardsforheroes.org) for more information. ***
