Sugar Creek Hollow Blog Hop

HAppy EAster FridAy!  The first stAt (for most of us) in the yeAr since New YeArs.  What a relief to finAlly have a long weekend!

TodAy we've got a fun BLOG HOP hAppening with SugAr Creek Hollow.  There Are some new releAses for April, And the Design TeAms created some sAmples for you, using this weeks SCH sketch chAllenge. Best of All there is A fAbulous grAnd prize you cAn win!!

When I sAw these new releAses, the first thing I thought of wAs that this door would mAke An Awesome ChristmAs Aard.  I usuAlly need close to 100 ChristmAs cArds A yeAr, so it's importAnt to get stArted eArly, or it gets reAlly stressful and the quAlity of the cArds goes wAy down hill.  I wAs hAppy how this one turned out:



I hAd A lot of fun with this one, got out my cuttlebug, flowersoft and liquid Aplique.  I wAnted to Achieve An old fAshioned look.  The imaAge got me hAlf wAy there, so I tied it in with krAft paper And this cuttlebug folder which hAs old fAshioned fonts.

The sentiment I typed in Word and then centered below the digi image from SugAr Creek Hollow, And then I printed them together.  The eyepeep and door hAndle Are coloured with spicA pens in gold.  The bow is Affixed with A glue dot.  I hAd mAde A cute little wreAth with A piece of twist tie And flowersoft that looks Awesome, but I felt it hid the imaAe a bit too much, so skipped it And only put the bow.  It'll keep for Another card :-)

Here's A close up of the mAin image:
