It's finally here!!  Congratulations Cheri!!  The first official day of your new online store!  And WOW you should see the amazing product Cheri, Graphicat Stamps, has for your shopping pleasure!! 

Did you come from Yvonne's blog?  GREAT!  If not tho and you'd like to get in on a chance to win some goodies you could start at the beginning at Graphicat Creations.  Cheri is giving away 3 free digi's at EACH stop along the hop and a $25 gift certificate for the grand prize!

This is one of the Graphicat Stamps Halloween sentiments so I thought I'd add a mirror in a frame created by my Silhouette.  I've paired this sentiment up with an image from Tickled Pink Stamps as Cheri will be carrying these on her site soon as well.  YAY!!  So nice to have a Canadian supplier for these and the only Canadian supplier too.

Now off to check out some more of what Graphicat Stamps has to offer so you next hop is over to Gloria!!

Tickled Pink Preview Day 1

Today we are showing you a new line of Pinkette's called

"Lil Tom Boyz" from

Tickled Pink Stamps.

This is Bug Coraline (isn't she cute?!) and although I'm not a huge fan of using bright colors I kind of thought she needed them!!  Love these new butterfly Doohickey's from Magnolia!!

It is also time for the monthly sketch challenge at

Graphicat Sketches challenge blog. 

I've use the sketch below and added her new "Thought I'd Bug You" sentiment.  This girl is amazing with words and funny thing but I just can't see to put anything together for wording.  You can find some fabulous sentiments and images at Graphicat Designs.

Who can't use a sketch?!!  So please join us this month at Graphicat Sketches challenge blog!

Graphicat Creations May Challenge Sketch

For this month Cheri is showcasing some new yummy tropical drink stamps.  You can view all of them and other fabulous sentiments at:

Graphicat Designs 

I've chosen to use digi "I've Never Met a Margarita I Didn't Like".....true story too!! The limes I used are from Jolee's and I think it may be the first time I ever used them on my cards but they were just too cute!!  I added some Twinklettes to the rim of my glass and it looks sooooooo tasty IRL!!  I also used Tim Holtz's "Bitty Grunge" stamp to make it look like some rays of sunshine are coming from behind the drink.  It looked so blah with just the plain orange cardstock.  Love that set.  Thanks Cheri!

We'd love to see you join the challenge this month and here's May's sketch:

Graphicat Grand Opening Blog Hop

(For the April Bunny Blog Hop Click HERE)

Today is a special blog hop cuz one of my close friends is doing her first blog hop for her new digi site,

Graphicat Designs.

So, if you've come here from Cheri's blog you're on the right track.  If you want to start at the beginning I'll send you back to her blog Graphicat Creations.  

The image I used is called "This Cup".  Cheri likes to keep things simple.  LOL!  My kinda gal!!  Join us in our monthly sketch challenge pictured below, which I've used and enter your card to win some digi's!!

I have to admit my favorite part of this card is my sugar on the spoon falling into the coffee.  This would be one of those things where I see it on another blog and think "OMG why didn't I think of that?!!"  Well this time it's me!  YAY!!  LOL!!  I first put down some Glossy Accents, then sprinkled some flower soft on and followed that up with glitter.  

So on to the hop and your next stop is at another friend's blog,

Chris at Chris' Creations.

Enjoy the hop!!
