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!

Sweet 'N Sassy Digi Challenge 73

Happy Friday everyone~
It is time for Sweet 'N Sassy Digi Challenge (SNSDC73)!! The challenge is super easy one - Make a square card/project. The project can be a square scrapbook layout, cubic deco, anything with square.

You can use any digital stamps. Only requirement is the image has to be digital – but if you have any digital stamps from Sweet ‘N Sassy Stamps, we’d love you to use them! You can visit SNS Digi Challenge Blog for more information about the challenge and find out how to win free digital stamps from SNSS!  Can’t wait to see your creation!

For my square card, I used Santa Owl digital stamp for the image and Christmas Sentiments digital stamp for the greeting. The card size is 4 1/2" squares and I also designed the background with smaller squares using the designer papers. It was a kind of fun to design the card with squares and I need to make more like this to use up some left over papers!


Sadly, this is my last post as a SNSS Digi DT. It was my first design team for digital stamps and I had so much fun with being in the team for one and half years! I am planning to play along the challenge when I can :) Thank you for your support and love for the SNSS digi challenge.

I love going to tea rooms with my girlfriends! It is my girl’s time…no men allowed!! Not only I enjoy spending time there with my friends, but I also enjoy being served their pretty antique tea cups & pots. So, I decided to put those wonderful time into my feminine card.

I used Cookie’s Tea Digi for the image and one of True Friend Sentiments Digi for the sentiment. The image was colored with Copic markers and the circle mat was sponged with ink. The card was designed with the Echo Park designer papers and adde the decorative borders that was created with SNSS Lacey Eyelet Border die and MS Flower Bed deep edge punch. It was also embellished with the ribbon with the paper rose and pearls.
