remember when...

Last weekend I attended a shoebox swap in Ilion, NY with about 25 stamping friends.  We designed and prepared the supplies for a card that everyone in attendance could make.  I grabbed a Sizzix card die that I hadn't used yet and my Sweet 'n Sassy- Sassy Cindy stamp set to create my card.

When the card is opened, the front stands up when placed behind the die cut notch.

On the inside, above the notch, is one of the Sassy Cindy sentiments.

The cupcake is a Martha Stewart punch popped up with foam tape.

Hope you have a great weekend!

Hi there, Sweet 'n Sassy Friends. It's Ceal here to share a fun card with you. How many of you can relate to what Sassy Cindy has to say? It's truth for me my therapist definitely wags his tail. I talk to my dog, Willis all the time and he just listens haha. If you're a dog lover like me then the Puppy Love set is definitely one you will want to add to your collection. And we did not leave you kitty lovers out in the cold, there is a set for you too, Kitty Love.

Here are the supplies I used

You're Only...

Hi friends!  Kim here today to share a card featuring the Sassy Cindy stamp set. I think I could be good friends with Cindy...I like her spunk and her one liners are hysterical!  Seriously, only as old as that Facebook photo, which you know is the best one I could find! LOL!

For this card, I used a whole lotta layers, patterns, and textures. When I work with a smaller image, I tend to either like to keep things very clean and simple, or add lots of goodies.  This week, it was lots!  

When I started, I knew that I wanted to frame Cindy, so she didn't appear to just be floating on the card.  The frame keeps her grounded...and this looks like a nice window.  I created the window by using one of the largest dies from the Decorative Plaques set.  Once the shape was cut, I kept the die in place and used an Exact-o knife to cut out the middle, using the die as a guide.  (The dies also have a coordinating stamp set, Decorative Frames.  I did use the stamp with the die.)

Once Cindy was colored, with pencils, I simply cut my cardstock to fit behind the window.  The entire window was attached with foam tape.  The sentiment fits perfectly into one of the Speech Bubbles dies (oh man, I LOVE these dies), and I just added a few mini peals as accents.

I hope you enjoyed today's card!  And, remember, don't update that photo if you don't have to...LOL!

not old

Hello and happy St. Patrick's Day!  My card today isn't green...but I do have a fun one to share using my Sassy Cindy stamp set.

The inside sentiment reads (plus shipping & handling).  ;)
Here's a closer pic of Sassy Cindy... she was popped with dimensionals, along with the speech bubble.

There's plenty of fun sentiments in the stamp set to pair with her to make for all your gal friends.  She was quite perfect for a birthday card I needed to make!

Have a great week~
