A little about Peggy Loves Vintage....

My husband and I have shared 36 years together and we have 2 sons and a daughter and 2 glorious grandkids ages 3 and 6.

I started collecting vintage cards quite by accident. I was helping with my aunts estate sale and ran across her collection. The cards were so wonderful that I fell in love with them and have been collecting them ever since.

I love to get a new vintage scrapbook and read all about the lives and times of the individual. Some of their stories are truly inspiring.

Be sure and visit my blog where you'll find some great inspiration, tips, tricks and some free vintage images for you to use.

I'm really excited about being an sponsor for Craft Us Crazy and sharing these beautiful vintage images with you. I hope that you come to love them as much as I do.

Peggy Loves Vintage is offering 5 different cut outs to our winner, that's a $17.50 Value...what an awesome prize for a lucky winner!!! Thanks Peggy for sponsoring our challenge and for donating some awesome images for our DT to work with!! We appreciate everything!

Also we have a brand new monthly sponsor for the month of April..and that would be the one and only.....

We all start somewhere and it's been growing.Creating Digi's just happened to be a blend of using my drawing and computer graphix together to create "Limited Runs"which is my digital stamp store. I've also started Freebie Fridays and will be doing this for a Limited time too. Each may be posted from 1 day to ??? (Limited Time Offer) May you all enjoy my digi's as much as I love to make them. So if your looking for some YUMMY cupcakes I've got over 70 Varieties to choose from with more always in the works. Don't worry there are also others available too from Cute to a little scary. Pop by and you'll see what I mean!!! And we have occassional large seasonal Digi's for those who scrapbook digi's that are 8 By 8 Inches too these will pop up from time to time and be Limited Runs too.

Limited Runs is offering 3 Digital Images to our winner and an image EACH to our TOP 3..How awesome is that!!! Thanks Nikki for sponsoring our challenge, playing along with us this week and for donating some awesome images for some of our DT to work with!! We appreciate everything!
