Hello Summer!

Hi there it's Ceal and I am sharing a summer card with you today.
I don't about your part of the country but it definitely feels like summer here in Arkansas. It was 92 yesterday and is supposed to be 97 today. I am staying inside in my studio for sure.
My card share using a couple of the newest digis Hello Summer and Coconut Palm, used together they make a great summer card!

Customer Spotlight Sunday

This week we're thrilled to showcase Julie's beautiful wedding-themed card, which features one of the sentiments from the Wedding Sentiments set. (This great set includes eight sentiments for only $3.50!)

I love how Julie chose to use the sentiment as the focal point on this card, so elegent! And can you see that amazing shimmer on her paper, beautiful! Adding all of the small flowers and lacy edges make this card design a fantastic choice for any happy couple!

A big thank you to Julie for allowing us to showcase her card today! Have a card you'd like us to share...leave us a comment with a link back to you blog and maybe you'll be the next Customer Spotlight Sunday person!

Enjoy!

Precious Baby!

Hi there,

This is Silvia, I'm one of your guest designers for the month of June! I'm super excited to be here. I LOVE the images at Sweet N' Sassy digi's but have you seen the NEW photopolymer stamps...they are awesome! Go check them out if you haven't already! But mt card uses a digi image called Precious Baby and what a bargain it is for just $3.50. Imagine just how many times you'll be able to use this image, for boy or girl it's the perfect image! For the scallops all the way around I simply embossed a sheet of cardstock and then punched it out with my 1/2 inch circle punch and adhered it all around.

This card was my very first time using my new copics (I told hubby I NEED more)...I have a total of 8, so not many to choose from, but they matched and so I was able to color this image with them...well copics and watercolor pencils and blender pens. So you could say that this is a mixed media project! I love the trim, I got it at a local trim and beading store and then I used some pretty gingham ribbon to add a extra to it...plus I wanted to hide a spot that I couldn't add another circle...so there you have it...perfectly covered up! LOL

Supplies:

Stamps: Precious Baby By Sween N Sassy

Paper: cameo coral, pink pirouette, certainly celery, White by PTI

Ink: Lazer printer

Accessories: gingham ribbon, lace, water color pencils, blender pens, copic ,markers

I hope you like my card...it's an honor to be here as a guest designer, and i hope you come back and see what else I have created to share with you!

Hugs and happy stampin',

Silvia

Taste and See...

...that the Lord is good! Happy Friday everyone! Are you all ready for the weekend? I can't wait and if time permits maybe I'll get in some baking...I know this darling image from the Baked with Love set makes me think of apple pie and banana bread! And that's not all...there are a total of eight digi images in this set, all sure to inspire you to bake some goodies for your family or friends! Right now it's on sale for only $10.50!

In addition to showing off this darling image and sentiment, which I colored with Copics, I'm also showcasing some fun Jillibean Soup papers that are all about being down on the farm. Fun stuff!!

Enjoy your weekend and try to make time for eating at least one slice of apple pie!

Chocolate Chip Rose

Here it is, ladies! The first chocolate chip rose! I was coloring the June Rose the other night during the release party (which was *so* fun, by the way!!) and I had some... ummm... technical difficulties. (In other words, I *really* messed up the coloring!! LOL!) But... Korin said I should try to salvage it, so I cut it all apart and layered the pieces with pop dots. Then I paper pieced one of the butterflies from the Everyday Miracles set and used a sentiment from the Poppies & Greetings set to finish it off. I really like how it turned out! :-)

Don't forget to stop by our digi day (or clear stamp day!) at SNR or PCP. Our theme for today is... Floral Frenzy!! I hope to see you there!!

Thanks for stopping by!!

June Rose in CLEAR STAMP FORM!!!!!!!

HAPPY HUMP DAY! Does it feel like Wednesday to you? My body is all messed up from the three-day weekend!! But, believe it or not, we are already half-way through the week!!!!!!!

Did you get a chance to participate in the Clear Stamps Celebration BLOG HOP yesterday? It is so exciting bringing back clear stamps to the Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps STORE HERE! DIGIS are wonderful! I LOVE THEM!! But there are some awesome techniques that can't happen with digis, so I am excited to be inking up again!

For my card above, I used the JUNE ROSE CLEAR STAMP along with a sentiment from the POPPIES AND GREETINGS CLEAR STAMP SET! Don't these look great together!? I used Copics to color and some Kaiser Scrapbook pearls to add a special, delicate touch! The square scallops were made using punches by Stampin' UP!

Be sure to play along STILL TODAY with the blog hop CHALLENGES at the SNR FORUM HERE and see if you were the lucky winner of yesterday's blog candy, too!!

Blessings on your day!! ~ Nicole
