TSG Sneak Peek -- NEW Mini Sets


Hello everyone~ It's time for There She Goes March Sneak Peek and Blog Hop Challenge!! For the next 3 days, TSG Trendsetters are going to show their sneak peek for the new release sets. I hope you will play along the blog hop challenge with us :)
If you came from Julie's blog, you're on the right track. If not, you may want to visit to TSG blog for the hopping order and the challenge detail.

Today's sneak peek is for the two Mini Sets - "Dance" *Stamps For A Cause*and "Beautiful Spring"!! Each set will sell for $7 (Wow!).

"Dance" *Stamps For A Cause*
set is so special to Jessica. It was created in honor of her friend, Linda who passed away in early January. Linda's life was taken from us all to soon because of a disease called Amyloidosis. $4 from every Dance mini set sold will be donated to the Amyloidosis Support Group in Linda’s name. This is categorized as a mini set but the images are endless possibilities. It is such a beautiful set.


To create the 3D flowers, I first stamped each image and colored with Copics. Then I cut them out and creased each petal and leave before layering them. And I attached the pearl on the center of the 3D flower. I love how they were turned out and that were not hard at all!!






"Beautiful Spring" set has wonderful Tulip and Daffodil images and you will enjoy coloring them even it's still snowing outside ;) There are also some wonderful sentiments included in this mini set. I just love those spring flowers that make me want winter is over right now, lol.

For the flower image, I simply stamped and colored with Copic markers and layered just flowers again. I used the pretty background dp from DCVW. To complete the card, I attached the ribbon with the button and added the little butterflies with pearls like they were flying around the flowers.


- So, do you wanna win both of mini sets?
Here’s what you need to do - go to each of the Trendsetter’s Blogs and leave a comment on their mini sets post. Then return to the TSG Blog and add your name to the Mr. Linky at the bottom of the challenge post. A winner will be chosen randomly using a random number generator to receive their very own set of "Dance" and "Beautiful Spring". The winner will be announced Saturday (27th) during the Release Party Chat.
