Customer spotlight Sunday

Today's customer spotlight is brought to us by Vanessa Fernandez. Vanessa used the Sew Happy Cocoa digi for her card. This sweet cocoa is also available in a clear stamp set. I love the hand stitching on the card and the needle and cloth embellishment add the perfect touch.

Thank you Vanessa for allowing us to feature your sweet card today!

Sew Prayerful

Hello friends! Today's card uses one of my favorite Cocoa digis, Sew Happy Cocoa, which is also available in clear stamp form. I think I like him so much because I love to cross stitch and quilt as well as stamp. And isn't that sentiment from the new clear set Prayerful Thoughts perfect? I colored Cocoa with Copics and added some pretty lace from Grandma. And I even found an old buckle in my stash. How fun! BTW, have you made your cards for the challenges yet? You have an excellent chance to win a free set just by playing along!

Thanks for stopping by!!

Blessings!

The Sweet 'n Sassy digis I used in each creation are LINKED UNDER each card!

Sew Sweet!

Happy Wednesday everyone... can you believe we're half way to the weekend already! 
It was so difficult to choose which image I was going to use today as Sweet'n Sassy have been releasing loads of new digis ... my advice is to check the home page frequently and look at the Whats New section! 
I eventually chose little Sew Happy Cocoa ...  get him HERE, and the matching sentiment set HERE.  (He might feature on my Mother's Day card too as my Mum loves sewing!)  

I hand stitched round the little blue panel with pink thread and then did some faux stitching round the edges.  The little scissors are from a set of brads I bought at the craft show in Belfast, not knowing when I was ever going to use them, but they're just perfect with Sewing Cocoa! 

Don't forget our digi challenge day over at SNR, come and join us for some fun every Thursday! 
I hope to see you there!

Sew Special Purse

There are so many great digital stamps coming out of Sweet N Sassy I just can't keep up! I want them all! But some of my favorite images are of Cocoa. I love how he peeks out from behind things. So adorable!
I had a totally different project in mind when I first saw this Sew Happy Cocoa image. I was going to actually do some sewing for one thing, but then I found a miniature sewing kit at the dollar store and was looking for a way to package that up and that's how this little Sew Special Purse was created!

I don't know that I would give a small sewing kit to a real seamstress, but this would be a great gift for a grad going off to college. Put a little cash in the purse along with the safety pins, needles, and thread and the graduate is ready for minor clothing emergencies anyway. The sentiment is also perfect for a special graduate. It's from the Sew Many Thoughts sentiment set.
I added a couple of tissue paper flowers and some buttons to give the project a homespun feel. The "purse" is from a template I purchased online. I normally am not crazy about orange, but I really liked it with this project.  Be sure to go check out all the latest Cocoa stamps at Sweet N Sassy. There are some really "sweet" ones available. Happy Valentine's Day!
