Happy Hopping!

Welcome to our big mid-summer Blog Hop! We're focusing on birthday cards and projects, and we've got a brand new product line that we're launching today, too! Prepare to be WOWed, everyone!

First, let's start with the debut of our adorable Birthday Boy and Birthday Girl Card Kits. These cute kits, designed by Pam Smerker, are packed full of custom die-cut cards plus papers and embellishments to make a dozen cards with plenty of goodies left over to use on other projects. They're a great value!




We'll be giving away two of these kits this week (one right here on Diecutdiva.com and the other on one of the blogs on the hop), and you'll get plenty of ideas and samples along the blog hop. Keep reading for details.

Right now, it's time for more eye candy! We've got some adorable birthday themed projects to show you, created by Pam Smerker. First, her girl birthday ensemble, made using the Dress Boxes made up like little ballerinas and an adorable cake made from Cake Slice Boxes:

And next up is her take on a more masculine birthday ensemble, using the Cake Slice Boxes and clear acetate Candy Boxes:




So you've heard that we're giving away one of our brand new Birthday Boy Card Kits here on Diecutdiva.com. Here are the four different ways to win it:
