There's an exciting new blog hop starting today over at the Cloud 9 blog! It was created by the very talented Suzanne Dahlberg. I first met Suzanne through the 12 Kits of Christmas group and just love visiting her blog--talk about oozing with inspiration! I was so glad when she posted the information about the Cloud 9 blog because it was just after I received my first WPlus9 order. I now have two stamp sets and some dies and know I will be ordering more. Below is the inspiration photo Suzanne provided for this month's challenge.
As I said, I don't have a lot of stamps yet so decided to go with the colors and this embossing folder that ever so slightly reminds me of the grass-llke table skirt. But the picture looks like a celebration so I thought stars and fireworks might be in order. This Echo Park paper had the perfect colors! And I love this pocket set--so great for many occasions!!
Be sure to visit the Cloud 9 blog and learn more about the new monthly hops. There is still time to enter this one too!
Thanks for letting me share!

Wow Sharron this is amazing! I love what you came up with. That background, the stars and the sweet printed pocket. Such a creative take. Looks like I need to go shopping now.
Wow--this pocket card is amazing. How lucky that you found patterned paper in the right colors. And, your embossing folder is perfect. I really like those stars coming out of the pocket.
This is such a good pocket card Sharron! I really, really, really (I know that is a lot of really's) want to get that pocket set! I love the IP you used and the patterned paper you chose goes with the inspiration sketch perfectly!
GO SHARRON! I am so happy you joined us because this card is great! I love the stripes and the stars with the rhinestones- perfect details! Thanks for playing along!

What a cute set! Love the colors Sharron.
Sharron, what a great idea to incorporate the colors into the pocket! And I love how you stamped on the texture, too :)
Sharron, this is a wonderful interpretation of the inspiration photo. Love the stars and gems shooting from the pocket.

Those bright colors on the kraft is perfect for the inspiration!
Love the striped paper ~ and against the kraft HELLO beautiful and fun!!!
This is fabulous, Sharron! I need to get more Wplus9 stamps, that's for sure. Thanks so much for stopping by during the Lil' Inker Designs July Release Hop!
What a fun a festive pocket--I love the stripes! The touches of gold are fabulous, Sharron. So glad you could join the first Cloud9 challenge!
Very cute, Sharron! I really love your patterned pocket - I always forget about using dies on patterned paper. Love the texture you added to resemble the grass skirt, too. So glad that you played along with us!
Great card Sharron and that textured background card really reminds me of a pair of jeans I once had - it is a perfect base for the pocket.
Love that pocket! Just pops against the embossed kraft background. Love the gold touch. Love your card, Sharon! Pinning it. So glad you played with us @ Cloud9:)
I want a pocket like that!! How fun!! Great use of texture too.
Hey! So I hear we are practically neighbors! :) How fun!! We should meet up sometime! I understand that there is a new scrapbook store in Wichita (I found that out from Amy who said you told her!). That store is very close to where my parents live! Can't wait to visit it!
