Spring is Coming

Today is my first post as one of the February Guest Designers for Sweet n Sassy Stamps.  I am excited to be here and share my creations with you this month!  I will be posting a card/project each Saturday in February. 

For this card, I used the newly-released "Benjamin Bunny" stamp set from Sweet n Sassy Stamps.  I thought it would be fun to paper piece Benjamin.  To do this, I used three different coordinating papers.  I decided not to include the pot and flower that is a part of the Benjamin stamp.  I like the effect that the paper-piecing achieved.  In addition to Spring cards, I think Benjamin would also be cute on baby cards.  I made a "quilted" background by punching squares from patterned papers and mounting them onto a piece of card stock.  The papers used are So Saffron, Certain Celery, and Delicate Dots DSP by Stampin Up.  I placed Benjamin on the frame made from Nestabilities dies then stamped the coordinating sentiment.  I completed the card by adding pre-made flowers, ribbon, and a bunny charm.   

Head over the Sweet n Sassy store to see the new "Benjamin Bunny" stamp set, as well as, other new stamp releases.  See you again next Saturday- Claudine.

God made you special....

...and He loves you very much.  Are those words familiar to you?  My kids were huge Veggie Tales fans and even now that they've out grown the sweet singing/acting vegetables, they will still watch them once in awhile or sing a silly song.  Well, with the great line up of new releases this month, the sentiment (used on my card) from One of a Kind reminded me of Bob's wise words.

God did make you for a special purpose and I truly believe that in the way we treat each other, love our families and worship Him is a glimpse of the person He is molding you to be.  Our real potential will never fully be developed until we are in Heaven with Him, but I think that here on earth we certainly should be practicing.

You can practice by just saying a little prayer for a friend, or helping a child see the awe of Creation or just being kind enough to create a card for someone special.  So go ahead... practice!

Many hugs & blessings,
Melissa

One of a Kind

Are you buried under snow?

We are here in NH!

Yikes, I would like it to be a bit more like this card. Today I have the newly released stamp set "One of a Kind," from

Sweet 'N sassy Stamps.

I colored the image with copics and cut out the focal image with my deckle rectangle nestie, added a bow and some pearls to dress it up!

Thanks for stopping by and check out the new releases from Sweet 'N Sassy Stamps.
