New Beginnings...

Welcome to Digistamps 4 Joy's New Beginnings Blog Hop!  You have arrived at Starla's blog in Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA!

(Of course, there's no snow right now...today was a beautiful day in the mid-60's.  Lovin' it!)

Digistamps 4 Joy is running a blog hop from April 25th to Thursday, May 10th at 6AM CAT to introduce our new blog! During the hop, you will journey from our old blog, through all of the talented DT blogs, and end at the new blog.  Each and every stop on the hop is offering a fabulous prize, so make sure not to miss any!  The winners will be posted on the individual blogs on Friday, May 11.  A full list of winners will be posted on the new Digistamps 4 Joy blog on Sunday, May 13.

If you reached my blog from the lovely Margy, you are right on track.  If not, you might want to start at the current Digistamps 4 Joy blog to make sure you don't miss any stops!  The hop order should be listed on each blog so you don't get lost.  =D

Here's the order of the hop:

Digistamps 4 Joy (new blog)

Well, here's my creation for our New Beginnings theme.  I decided that with June fast approaching, many people are starting to think about graduations...high school, college, etc.  I thought I would do a card from a mom to her son.  It could also be for a new job, a move...all kinds of things.

and here's a close up of the base.

 I decided to do an easel card. You never know, the son might want to display a card from his loving mother.  =D On the front I used one of the fabulous new images available in the NEW Digistamps 4 Joy shop.  It's called 4x4 Jeep and can be found here.  The image on the inside/base of the card is from Digi Doodle Shop, and it's called Boy & Vintage First Car.  I decided to go with this image because (A) it fit my theme/sentiment and (B)....the prize on my blog is $10 at Digi Doodle Shop!

Click on the badge above to check out their store.  There are all kinds of images for every person's taste.  

Ok, before you finish hopping, I should probably explain the rules for entering to win the prize.  (All blogs on the hop will have the same rules for their prizes.)  I definitely don't want any of you to miss out on the chance to win!

1. You MUST be a follower of each blog on the hop, except for the first stop.  (That is the current Digistamps 4 Joy blog and will no longer be active after the hop.)

2. You MUST leave a comment on each blog in the hop.  To make it easy on you, I'm not going to require any special kind of comment...but just make sure to say something!  =D

3.. You MUST be a member of the new Digstamps 4 Joy group on CDAC.   (If you're not a member of CDAC, please feel free to join.  It's free, and it's a fabulous group of digistampers and artists.  There are all kinds of challenges and tutorials...definitely a great community!  It's super easy to join, just click here and click on the "sign up" link.  Just don't forget to join the Digistamps 4 Joy group when you're done!)

Ok, that's it!  I hope you're having a blast, and good luck!  Your next stop is the fabulous Ursula.  See you soon!
