LOOK! Daydream Designs January Blog Hop is HERE!

Hello! Yes, today begins the Daydream Designs BLOG HOP! The theme this month is "HEARTS"...so perfect to get those Valentine's cards made early. Diane and Kris have been working like crazy on new digi sets and...you guessed it!...there are several new ones that have pretty hearts in them! I had trouble deciding which hearts were my favorite. I actually never came up with just one favorite...I like them all! But this adorable set really caught my eye, something about all the little hearts flying into the jar to be saved up...its just SO cute! So here is what I came up with using this set called
"Saving All My Love": To make this card I started with pink card stock for the base, added "Flakes-S-Red" as a background (which is another digi paper from Daydream Designs, from the "Elegant Snowflakes" set), and also added  a little piece of heart-embossed white behind the sentiment. The sentiment and the image are both part of the "Saving All My Love" set! Elegant Snowflakes                         Saving All My Love

Now, for the Blog Hop!
All of the other Daydream Design DT members have come up with an amazing and gorgeous variety of cards/projects
to showcase the many wonderful heart designs now available at

So please hop along to each of the blogs listed below.
There is a FREE digi (2 really!) available right here (and on each blog!)
as well as a PRIZE!
Diane will be giving a $20 gift certificate to the Daydream Designs store to a random winner who comments on every blog!

Sandy, this card is adorable. I love how you have the twine with the little charm tied at the top of your jar. I didn't get this set yet because I wasn't sure how to use it. After seeing yours it is going on my wish list. You did a great job!

January 21, 2013 at 10:44 AM Such a sweet card!

January 21, 2013 at 11:29 AM Sandie, this is awesome! I love that you used a snowflake background and that little charm is perfect! I also liked how the hearts look like they were jumping into the jar! Such a fun image! Beautiful card! Have a wonderful week! ~H

Hi Sandie!! SUCH a PRETTY card!! And I gotta admit, when I read that sentiment, I sang it! LOL. My girls have a couple karaoke dvds that we sing along to and this is one of the songs. Anywhoo... awesome blog hop!! And may I add... LOVE your blog template too. Great colors and elements. Neat, neat!! :)

I really like this card. the hearts look like lightning bugs wanting to get into the jar so someone can have there way lit up. Really great work.
