Don't Give Up Card with Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps~


Hi all! Today is my last project for Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps
I sure have had a great time.  Great stamps and great people!
I'm sharing a mixed media type card using several
Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps.


I created a 4"x4" background using SNS-13-054 Typewriter Text 
Background along with Distress Oxide ink and then
cut it down the middle, giving me two sections, and then cut
again, giving me four 2"x2" pieces. 


The squares are adhered with dimentional adhesive and then
using SNS-21-003 Going Postal and SNS-12-Nature Silhouettes 
to decorate the squares.  The greeting is added from
SNS-14-004 God is Bigger set.


Again I want Thank Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps for having me 
guest design for August.  I had a blast and LOVE your stamps.

Hi everyone!
I love submitting cards or projects for publication
and I'm always pleased when I get a "bite".


Creative Scrapbooker Magazine, out of Canada, is a great source
for crafty inspiration.  The magazine is full of scrapbooking
techniques and card making ideas.  One of those magazines that 
is hard to put down.



The call was for "coffee related" ~ cards or scrapbook pages.  


This card is using stamps by Blue Knight Rubber Stamps.


It is a mixed media type card using distress oxide inks for the
 background.  The focal is created with red rubber stamps
and dies.  So fun working with the dies!
