FOUR Spring Images in ONE!

It's another Monday with little ol' me, Nicole!  And if you are a follower of THE SWEET STOP sketch blog, you may have already seen this card!  I don't know about you, but Spring can not come fast enough to my home in Indiana!  So, I am just in love with how this card came out using four different Spring digital images by Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps!  It looks like ALL four of these images could be from one larger set! 

You can see KATE PLANTING HERE, the butterfly on the flower in FLUTTERING BY HERE, the large daisies in the FLOWER BOUQUET HERE, and also find the SENTIMENT HERE from the Springtime Blessings sentiment set!!

Above is the latest sketch from THE SWEET STOP sketch blog, which my card was inspired by!  When I first saw this sketch, I was of course trying to incorporate the 'SPIN of using flowers' in my card.   At first I thought I would use paper flowers or diecuts in the shapes, but then I got to thinking how I could make a little 'scene' in each using a few of the new Spring-inspired stamps by Sweet 'n Sassy!!!  CLICK HERE to see all of the NEW images in the store, but be sure you are sitting down, because there are TONS!!

I hope you take a moment to drop by The Sweet Stop to browse the beautiful cards by the Sugar Babies Design Team!  And while you are at it, why not play along with us!?  IF you do, you could just win the PRIZE of a $20.00 gift certificate to SWEET 'N SASSY STAMPS STORE! 

Make it a great MONDAY! 

A Spring Preview

Hello, everyone! I'm Lisa at ZippyCrafts making my first guest appearance here at the SNS blog. I was so excited about all the great new images released this week at Sweet N Sassy that I went into a crafting frenzy. Therefore, I have not one or two projects to share with you today, but THREE! Can someone say "Overkill!"? I would have done even more, but I didn't want to be one of those guests that overstay their welcome, lol.
Alright! First up is the absolutely adorable Benjamin Bunny. Have you seen this guy? He is too cute to poot! I want to pull him out of the paper and give him a big squeeze.

I don't guess bunnies are just for Easter, but that was the first thing that popped into my head so he needed some Easter eggs. Good thing I saved a few plastic eggs from last year because I didn't have much luck finding Easter candies yet. And since Benjamin is not the Easter bunny, I wanted his eggs to come by bunny mail, so I created this cute little mailbox for him to wait by.
Next up, is a card created with One of a Kind. Love the message of this set and the little birdies are so fun to color. To make him special, I added some Waterfall Stickles to the wings of the birdie in the middle.

I could see giving this to one of my junior high students since they are so concerned with fitting in and acceptance by peers. Individuality  is its own blessing!
Still with me? I've got one more for you. I used the beautiful, elegant Fluttering By set to decorate this tote.

I found this nifty tutorial for making these totes and then found these inexpensive bath salt and bath tablets to give as a gift. What a great sentiment and image for dressing up this gift bag.
Thanks for letting me share. You can find more details on my blog for each of these projects and you can get all these awesome images at Sweet N Sassy. If they don't lock the gates on me, I'll be back next Saturday with some more projects from SNS.
