JANUARY NEWS & HAPPENINGS

It's time for some sad farewells and happy hellos here at Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps. Four of our beloved Design Divas are leaving us. We want to thank them for their irreplaceable contributions to Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps over the past several years.  Bridget, Lee Ann, Giovana, and Jacquie…we have been inspired by your creativity and want to wish you the very best in the coming year.  May the Lord bless you and lead you in all your new endeavors!  We love you and will miss you dearly!!  Of course this means we have some introductions to make. We are honored to introduce you to five new faces here at Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps.  Although these five very talented ladies are new to us here, I'm sure they are not new to you!
Welcome Angela Bode, Jane Bosi, Judy Rozema, and Jenny Stucky to the design team and Graciellie Chavez as our newest stamp designer!
You can look for her first stamp set to be released on January 9th!

Here is a little about each of these talented ladies in their own words...

Hi!  My name is Jenny and I call a little town in Southern Wisconsin home.  My life is blessed with 4 wonderfully busy children and a DH that is still in shock mode when it comes to my little stamping addiction.  Did I say addiction?  …I meant paper…bling…alterables…I love it all!  I'm known for hoarding my supplies, too. (grin!)  When my crazy schedule allows, and I'm not in my studio. you can find me on a tennis court or out for a run.  I'm super excited to be designing for Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps!!  If my creativity inspires you in some way, then I'm one happy gal!



Hello! It's Angie here!
I am so excited to be joining SNSS!  I have admired SNSS sentiments and images from the moment I saw them during a release several years ago!  I never imagined that one day I would get to be part of the team!  This month my husband and I celebrate our silver anniversary, what?!!!  We are enjoying this fabulous phase of  life with our two teens. We share our home with two felines, the youngest, Storm shows up frequently on my blog posts!  I have always had a love for art and crafts but I became passionate about paper and stamps about 3 1/2 years ago.  I love learning new techniques with coloring mediums. I get a little lost in the joy of coloring images and I can't wait to combine my love of stamping with SNSS images and sentiments!  In the fall of 2013 I received the biggest thrill of my "art" life when I was asked to be a Dirty Girl at Splitcoaststampers.  I enjoy hanging out at SCS and I am currently one of the hostesses for the weekly CAS challenge.  When I am not stamping I enjoy reading, playing board games and hiking but watching a movie with my family is my favorite thing!  I am a huge movie buff with a love of both classics and modern. I also work at our church once a week coordinating the crafts for preschool and toddlers (ha! I just can't stay away from the paper!!!)

I am absolutely thrilled to begin this journey with SNSS.  Thank you so much Korin for choosing me and thank you to the entire team for the warm welcome!


My name is Jane Bosi.  I live in Wisconsin with my high school sweet heart and five children.  After a decade of post-high school separation, the Lord brought us together and created a family I never thought possible!  We've been married almost 18 years and blessed with five of the most interesting and unique kiddos.  I've been stamping for what seems like forever.  My Studio and stamping evolution constantly makes a case for hoarding things as I am always discovering new ways to use it and different techniques.  Outside of stamping, I love to read, teach, sing, cook, play, gather with friends and hang out with my family.



My name is Judy Rozema. Originally from Arizona, I now live in Central Nebraska, in Cornhusker country, and have been married for 32 years. I have a daughter who works and lives in Utah, and a married son who is a pastor and lives in North Carolina. A sweet 6 year old white lab/jack russell mix and an 18 year old water turtle round out our family. After years of teaching music to kindergartners through college students, I now work at a credit union full-time. When I'm not stamping, I enjoy watching movies, crocheting, and junk jaunts! You might know me on Splitcoaststampers as StampingQueenJAR. My blog is Joy in a JAR and I hope you will stop by for a visit! 
I am thrilled and delighted to be a part of the SNSS Design Team Divas! Thank you, Korin!

Welcome aboard ladies!  We are over the moon excited to have you join our team!

Next up...
We are starting the new year off with a bang!  Four new stamp & die bundles are now available at a 20% discount through our January Sweet Perks Club, but only until January 8th. After that they will only be available as separate items at full price.

January 8th - Join us at 8:00pm on our Facebook page as we reveal the new stamps and dies being released this month.  You'll have lots of fun chatting with the Design Divas and be inspired by the projects created with the new products.  You'll be the first to have the opportunity to snatch up the new items as they become available in the Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps Store at 10pm EST!!

January 9th -  Release Day Blog Hop and Challenge

January 30th - February Sweet Perks Club Bundles will be available for preorder

We've had a lot for you to digest, but are so glad that you've decided to spend some time with us today!  Now sit back with your favorite beverage and enjoy the Season's Givings Blog Hop!  It's a BIG one!! :D
