New Release Day.....& a blog hop!

Hello everyone!! Welcome to the NEW RELEASE BLOG HOP!!!!!! You may have come from Alex's blog....if so, you are at your last stop!!!! If not, you may want to start at the beginning with Amy L's blog & hop on through all the blogs!! I'll tell ya why at the end of the post :)

So....we are celebrating our very first release with our new artist, Dustin Pike. He has a HUGE following already, so we are really excited to be working with him!!!!

You can see all the new releases on the newly updated High Hopes site.....just type "HOTP" in the search box, & all the fun new stuff will pop up!!





So I used the adorable Cherry Chip Chimp for my card today......colored with Prismas...cut out with my Labels One Nesties.....the papers are SU's Rose Red & Basic Grey Lemonade (which I also used to piece the cupcake wrapper)....lots of stitching & a flower in the corner....I kept it pretty simple since the image is definitely the star of the card!





All of these images are available for order at 7 Kids College Fund!!! Click HERE to get to the new releases (hopefully they will be listed, I am scheduling this post, lol)!!!

Would you like a chance to win some of these new High Hopes goodies??? There will 4 Diva blogs chosen to randomly pick a commenter to win one of 4 fabulous prizes. One person will win the ENTIRE SET OF NEW RELEASES......& 3 others will win separate stamp packages (I have no idea what those will be, but if they're High Hopes they've gotta be good!!!). So.....you will want to leave a comment on each Diva's blog to increase your chance of winning!!!! The winners MUST have left a comment on EVERYONE'S blog in order to be eligible!!

This will stay open until FRIDAY 7 PM Central time!! So get your comments in!!!!
