SEW MANY CARDS THREE'S A CHARM BLOG HOP!!!

We at SMC are so excited as we are blog hopping with Sunshine Stamps and The Stamping Boutique today!!  So grab a cup of coffee and get comfortable and we hope you truly enjoy the hop!!!  My card was made using the Jaden in Baby Carriage image and you can purchase it here.   I used some of my new Cosmo Cricket Earth Love papers and some SU Dusty Durango and Gina K Sweet Corn cardstock.  I was going for a vintage"y" look and I'm getting there slowly but surely.  I did a lot of inking on this one and you will notice that I tore my papers and rolled them back and hid another piece of patterned paper underneath.  I saw this technique on a video I watched the other night and I can't seem to find the link right now.  I'll post it as soon as I find it.  The sentiment is from Mega Mixed Messages from Papertrey Ink.  The little charm is one I picked up at Walmart.  Hope you like it!  Now, if you just happened upon my site and would like to start at the beginning of the Three's A Charm blog hop go here to start and you will see the entire blog roll listed.  If you are already hopping along then you should have come from Lori's site (doesn't she have some cool projects?!) and next you will be hopping over to see what wonderful creation Peggy has made (I always love stopping at her blog)! 

We are so excited this month to have Simon Says Stamps as our sponsor again this month.  They have been so generous and are donating a $10 gift certificate to their store for this month's blog hop winner!  Don't forget that Angela has posted a new Friday Freebie over at Sew Many Challenges also so you want to go pick it up as it will only be available this week!

I almost forgot I'm entering this in one of my other favorite challenge blogs The Pink Elephant!  Their challenge this week is to use the color orange!

Here are the copics I used on the project above:
