SNSDC80 - Shaped Card

Hello everyone~
I have one card to show you today! This card was made for Sweet 'N Sassy Digi Challenge (SNSDC80). The challenge is to create a shaped card.

Did you know they just released the new digital images? And that's not all... all digital stamps are 25% off until Nov 21st! Be sure to visit SNSS store to check all fun events throughout their birthday month!



You can see I made a Christmas Tree shaped card :) I created the shape with Spellbinders Nested Pennants and Lacey Nested Pennants Nestabilities. I used Pippin's Christmas Lights Digi for the image and the greeting from Christmas Sentiments Digi.
I really wanted to use the new digital images, but unfortunately my printer is out of ink right now :( Hopefully I can get new ink and print them out soon!

Thank you for stopping by.
Have a great weekend!

FTTC195 - All Naturals & New Release!

Hello everyone~
It is time for Flourishes Timeless Tuesday Challenge (FTTC195)!! It's also day two of Flourishes sneak peeks for November!  It is Denise's turn to host and she is challenging us to use an inspiration photo that Heather picked out for you to make a card/project. Please visit Flourishes blog for more information about the challenge.


Here is the inspiration photo

Today we're being joined by the Flourishes Senior DT to show off a brand new set called "Inside and Out, Just Because".

For my card, I used Love and Lace set for the images. The card was designed with Classic Ivory cardstock, kraft cardstock and BG designer papers. The silhouette image and word, "Just Because" were stamped with Memento rich cocoa and the rest of the sentiment was stamped with Memento tuxedo black. To finish off, I embellished with the lace trim, canvas ribbon, vintage twine and button.

FTTC194 - FLLC Silhouettes

Hello and happy Tuesday everyone!
It is time for Flourishes Timeless Tuesday Challenge (FTTC194) !! It's my turn to host and I am challenging you to use the silhouette image(s) from Flourishes LLC. Hope you will play along!
Please visit Flourishes blog for more information about the challenge.




I used the silhouette image and sentiment from A Season of Celebrations set. They were simply stamped with Memento rich cocoa on kraft cardstock and I sponged around the image with Memento love letter. The rest of the card was designed with red cardstock, kraft cardstock and designer papers. To finish off, I embellished the rhinestones on the sentiment layer and added the ruffle ribbon and vintage twine on the card.

Other supplies: SB Fancy Tags 3

SNSS DT's Favorites Blog Hop!!!

Hello everyone~
It is time to celebrate!! Happy Birthday to Sweet 'n Sassy Sassy Stamps, celebrating 5 fabulous years!!

Whoop! Whoop!

We have a lot planned this month in honor of our 5th birthday starting with today's special DT Favorites Blog Hop.  The best part about this hop is that all of the sets the DT is featuring are on sale---25% off today through November 7th!!!
I hope you enjoy the beautiful creations shared today featuring our favorite Sweet 'n Sassy Stamp sets!!



I have a quite few favorite sets and it was hard to choose just a couple of :P, but I hope you like my picks too.

Here is my first pick:

I absolutely fell in love with this beautiful set, To Paris With Love. For this hop, I decided to create an Easel card using the set. The image was colored with Copic markers and sponged with ink. The card was designed with the some border punches, fancy tag for the sentiment and beautiful designer paper. To finish off, the card was embellished with the flowers and rhinestones.

My next pick is Together Silhouettes. Even thought I've used SNSS digital stamps a lot, silhouette stamps are always my favorite! I especially love this one. I wanted to design the card with colors that make you feel happy and this was what I came up with. My very favorite part of the set is the umbrella stamp! I absolutely enjoy using this set every time :)
