Hello, sweet friends!
Welcome to Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps January 2015 Release Day!
Please join us today for our release day blog hop featuring our talented DT creations. You are going to love all of the gorgeous projects that were made for your inspiration!
Now let see what we have this month, shall we?
The DT blog links can be found in the Linky Tool at the end of this blog post.
... and here are my creations with the new sets:
-----
It was super easy to stamp and cut out these postal stamps... the background was covered with vellum to tone down the colors. The butterfly was heat embossed on vellum.
(BTW, I am linking this card up at Simon Says Wednesday Challenge - Something New.) and Darnell's NBUS Challenge #3 (never before used schtuff).
This monocrhomatic card was really easy to make. The sweet little butterfly was heat embossed again. The lay-out came from CAS(E )this Sketch #105. To add some sparkly to the card, I splashed gold ink on the background. I am linking this card up at AAA Cards: Use a little Gold.
Sweet Sarah was colored with Copic Markers, paper-pieced and was cut out... I used the same sketch as for my previous card, CAS(E) this Sketch #105. The background was made with a Fiskars stencil. I sponged gray ink over it.
One random commenter from one of the DT blogs will be selected to win a $10 Gift Code to be used at the Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps Store.
We also have a new challenge for you: USE SOMETHING NEW.
You have until Thursday, January 15th to link up your creation (s). The winner will be posted on the Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps Blog.
Thanks for joining us today!

I love the red/gray/black on ivory. Just gorgeous.
And though I prefer the sassy sister, the 2nd card is great too. LOL
Love your work.

I love all your cards, but I think you first one is my favorite. The collage look is not really my style, but I still find myself drawn to it. I may have to give it a try sometime--you've inspired me! :) I do love the vellum overlay, too.

Three awesome designs with the new release, Monika! LOVE your vellum overlay on the first gorgeous card with Parisian Postcard. Even though the sketch was the same for the last two cards, they are so different…one elegant and the other fun!
