VC Rocks Blog Hop 4

Welcome Friends! We are blog hopping on our last tour for VC summer 2010. I know you enjoyed Melanie's project and all the other VC Rockers on the hop!

I have 2 cards to share with similar design both using NEW colors!

The color combination featured here is Early Espresso, Cherry Cobbler and Crumb Cake.
Our celebration at VC is about to end for the summer. Our group 'hibernates' for the fall and winter. Come next spring the leadership team will start planning all the fun stuff to do for the summer of 2011. I sure hope that regular blog hops are on that list!! If you are a Rocker... be sure to attend our annual Awards Ceremony where I will announce all the rockers earning VC medals and the BIG winners of our Medal drawing! Sheryl Brown will announce the winners in our card contest! Whoo hooo!


I changed the layout and embellishments up a tiny bit and gave it a more masculine feel. The colors here are Baja Breeze, Early Espresso and Crumb Cake.

Your next stop on the hop is the fabulous Loni Holt. Give her some extra love as she is our coordinator for all our blog hops... I say she does an AWESOME job!!

I agree with the other comments on how the "feel" of the card was changed. I also liked that you used Extreme Elements (?) for the color splash. That is brilliant.
