Exciting News to Announce

I am so excited about this new announcement that I’m about to bust! Have you noticed the new blue and pink button on the right side of my blog that says “Designer Crafts Connection”? Well, that button is what the entire buzz is about.

Last November a group of professional craft designers got together to do the Sizzix Triple Play Blog Hop. Every week for 7 weeks these designers would create one-of-a-kind projects using different Sizzix die cuts that were designed by Sizzix Licensed Designers, Eileen Hull, Brenda Pinnick and Karen Burniston. There were over 60 designers who participated in the blog hop and the results were fabulous! When our readers hopped from website to website, they were thrilled to find over 60 different ideas for each die cut. When our blog hop ended in mid-December it left each of us feeling a little sad. We had such a blast designing new projects each week and hanging out with each other, that we didn’t want the fun to stop, and that brings me to my exciting news.

DRUM ROLL PLEASE…. I am so pleased to announce that this wonderful, talented group of designers that I am blessed to be a part of has created the “Designer Craft Connection”. The Designer Craft Connection is an on-going blog hop. Every month (and sometimes more often) the DCC designers will be posting different projects based on a theme, offer tips and techniques, host a treasure hunt where you can win cool prizes, and basically offer information and advice about all things crafty from the very best talent in the craft industry.

Since we begin today our fearless leader, Julie McGuffee, at www.juliemcguffee.blogspot.com  will have all the information on her website about how you can win a Cricut Expression machine of your very own! How cool is that?!!! So, join me and the other DCC designers as we begin our new adventure by clicking on the “hop forward” and “hop backwards” buttons to visit each designer’s website. Be sure to check back on March 13th, as we start our new challenge based on wedding ideas. I can’t wait. It’s gonna be a blast!!!

Crafty Hugs,
