Hello Sweet Friends! I am just popping in with a card using Happy Day clear stamp set from Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps:

Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps. Victory in Jesus.

Hello Sweet Friends! I have a card using Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps' Victory In Jesus clear stamp set:

I made my own background with all the greetings from the set... it is a really cool and quick technique to add something to the plain cardstock... the cross is heat embossed on vellum... the flowers are stamped on water color card stock and colored with Prismacolor Pencils.

Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps. Genuine Love...

Hello Sweet Friends! I am just popping in with couple of cards using Genuine Love clear stamp set from Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps:

These sweet images are so perfect for layering and clustering. I stamped some flowers and fussy cut them... they are small, so it's not the easiest to cut them, but the images are pretty forgiving so you don't have to be precise, and they look so good as embellishments! Worth the time!

sweet 'n sassy. march release after party blog hop.

Hello Sweet Friends! Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps has a fun blog hop today, showcasing all the stamp sets IN ACTION that were released this month.

 My first card is with Genuine Love clear stamp set along with couple of previously released stamp sets:

My second card is with Victory In Jesus clear stamp set:

While it looks very simple, I did make it 3 dimensional, so that adds a nice touch to this little piece. Check it out:

It looks amazing in real life... every flower is paper pieced and I added 5 layers to the base book/Bible image. So cool!

Your next stop is Sheri Gilson, but here is the blog hop list:

spellbinders. tri-fold card.

Hello Sweet Friends! I have a COOL tri-fold card today using a super cut die set from Spellbinders. I got it at Hobby Lobby 75% off during their big clearance last month!

So at first I wasn't crazy about this set and I wasn't going to buy it, but then I remembered a card I saw from Yana Smakula, and I knew I'd be able to make it work with these dies (she used a Christmas set)...

Yana has a great video showing how to make the card... the hardest part was to pick out the different card stocks (and to make sure the layers are cut in the correct order!).

My card is 5-1/2" x 3-1/2" as I wanted to use only half a sheet for the base (Yana paper pieced the last flap making it an A2 card).

sweet 'n sassy stamps. made new.

Hello Sweet Friends! I am just popping in with another card using the February Stamp of the Moth: Made New from Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps:

I used designer paper behind the vellum overlay I heat embossed previously... the foam heart is a clearance find... and the embellishments are my usual vellum flowers with rhinestones... I had to find another punch as my beloved SU! punch is acting up (so. so. sad!)...

I also made a sweet fridge magnet: more heat embossing, foam, and vellum flower!

made new. heat embossing

Hello Sweet Friends! I am just popping in with a card using the February Stamp of the Moth: Made New from Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps:

I used a retired flourish stamp on the background with Reese Brea shimmer paint...  I wasn't crazy how the coloring turned out so 'covering' it with the vellum sounded like a great idea... the butterflies were heat embossed with white embossing powder on the vellum...

sweet 'n sassy stamsp. february stamps.

Hello Sweet Friends! I am just popping in with some miscellaneous craft project using clear stamps from Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps:

First is a journaling card holder (video tutorial) that's perfect for displaying bible verses... the red foam heart is actually a pocket that holds the card stock with the verse.

Next is a foam bracelet decorated with vellum heat embossed butterfly and my oh so loved vellum flower... so cute, isn't it?

... and lastly, a bookmark... a bit bulkier than normal, but I love it... I also used printable images along with another vellum butterfly...
