It's rainin' winners around here!!

Sorry for the late post guys. I went on vacation expecting to be home in plenty of time to get this all posted and that did NOT happen! Unfortunately for all the plans I had set, it seems everytime I take a road trip something goes haywire....maybe I should stick with planes! LOL! If you are waiting to hear from me via email about something...that's why you haven't as well and I'm catching up on that next. The current week's challenge will be posted later tonight, but I wanted to announce the winners before I got too far in catching up here at home. Also, as a side note....the link app was having issues Sunday. So all entries that were left in the comments regardless of the time it was posted were in included in the draw.

This past week was the Scrap It With a Song blog hop in honor of the always fun, and totally wackadoodle MTV music awards. The DT and I had such a great time rockin' out to our favorite music with you and were so excited to share some goodies along the way too. First up was our weekly challenge. Week #21 was, 'You'll Be In My Heart' by Phil Collins. Our sponsor was the UBER adorable Sew Many Cards. One lucky winner will receive 5 images from their shop. That lucky crafter (if you will please email me at scrapitwithasong(at)yahoo(dot)com) is:

Week 21 - You'll Be In My Heart

The past few weeks and the next few weeks too, will see many of us shipping our kiddos back to school. Of course some of our readers are overseas or don't have little ones at home, but I for one am celebrating the quiet! LOL So this week will kick off a month of theme songs from some awesome kid's movies. First up is Disney's Tarzan. The theme song is called, 'You'll Be In My Heart' by Phil Collins. So grab a tissue, then get to scrappin'!!

This week is being sponsored again by the adorable Sew Many Cards!!!


My name is Angela and I own Sew Many Cards. I have a husband, an almost 10year old daughter, a two year old son, and a dog/puppy: Hershey. The images of Sew Many Cards came from a dream that my husband had of a group of animals that were "SEWN Together" with patches and stitching, hence the name, which he also came up with. You will find that every image in the Sew Many Cards collection has patches and stitching, even the ones that are not animals. I love to draw and almost every image is either an inspiration from my family or a request from my great customers and design team, so please ask if you need something specific or would like to request something be made. You can contact me at angela@sewmanycards.com

They have offered up to the winner of this week's challenge FIVE digi images from their shop. I can't wait to see what you all create :)
----------------------------------------

Come stop your crying
It will be all right
Just take my hand Hold it tight

I will protect you
from all around you
I will be here
Don't you cry

For one so small,
you seem so strong
My arms will hold you,
keep you safe and warm
This bond between us
Can't be broken
I will be here
Don't you cry

'Cause you'll be in my heart
Yes, you'll be in my heart
From this day on
Now and forever more

You'll be in my heart
No matter what they say
You'll be here in my heart, always

Why can't they understand
the way we feel
They just don't trust
what they can't explain
I know we're different but,
deep inside us
We're not that different at all

And you'll be in my heart
Yes, you'll be in my heart
From this day on
Now and forever more

Don't listen to them
'Cause what do they know
We need each other,
to have, to hold
They'll see in time
I know

When destiny calls you
You must be strong
I may not be with you
But you've got to hold on
They'll see in time
I know
We'll show them together

'Cause you'll be in my heart
Yes, you'll be in my heart
From this day on,
Now and forever more

Oh, you'll be in my heart
No matter what they say
You'll be in my heart, always
Always
