DRS Designs Blog Hop Stop #8

Yea!!!! You've traveled through the entire blog hop and have arrived at the final stop - good for you!!!! Thanks so much for visiting everyones blogs...we hope you go back to your craft area with a ton of inspiration!!! ETA: Stamps are available on the DRS site NOW!! **If you haven't been to everyone's blogs, please start your hop HERE and work your way back to me!!***

Now, I know you are anxious to see just what kind of candy is being offered for reaching the end of the hop, but first...here are my cards for the hop...these pigs are just so much fun...you can't resist them!!



When I spied my adhesive pearls in my drawer, I just knew they would be perfect for my sassy gal here!!! Isn't that sentiment perfect?! And this swirl background reminds me of little piggy tails!!!

This card was alot of fun too...Do you have friends like this?! We all do, admit it!!



I used the new fence for my pigs to dance on...after stamping it in brown and cutting it out, I stamped over it with a chocolate brown using Vicki's versatile background to give it a wood grain look. Of course, I had to add some grass...I get so much use out of that stamp...it is a must have!!

Here is a shot of the inside...another awesome sentiment!!




Ok, ok, I know, you've been patient enough...now you probably want to see what the blog candy prizes are...right???!!!

Well, here they are...

Wow, stunning cards...I can't pick a favorite...and I have to say that the pig is my fav stamp...and I'm generally not a pig fan, but these are just too cute! I love the inside you did with the pig popping out from behind the sentiment...and the pearls were ingenious! So clever!

Dawn said...

oh, those pigs are just toooo CUTE!

Nancy said...

Awesome blog hop...no one could ever tell it was your first!! I love the pearls on your card, Cathy! They are fabulous!! My favorite new release stamps have to be all things pig...Leonard is a great pig!! Great job to all the DRS ladies!!

Mandy said...

I LOVE your classy little piggy. How cute is that.

I have so many favorite DRS stamps, but I think my fave is the clover...I used it so much during St. Patricks day and now have to wait to use it a whole year...lol. I am excited to get some new DRS to use on my Christmas cards, so maybe I will have a new favorite. The pigs will end up on the favorite list too...they are simply adorable

Connie said...

Terrific cards!! What an awesome blog hop! Love the pigs!!

Although I'm not eligible for the great blog candy, I still wanted to comment on your adorable cards. I love, LOVE the pig in pearls! And what a fun way to decorate the inside of your card, too. Amazing cards, Cathy!!

Now that was fun blog hopping with my coffee! I had to do it quick this morning but will go back and spend more time this weekend. My favorite DRS image is the 4 corner floral background, I seem to use it all the time. Great card, love the pearls.

Both of your cards are just so cute. I can't get over the pearl necklace on the first one. Just too cute! Perfect quote on the second one.
