2014 Year in Review - Day 3: Shape Up

Hello sweet friends!  It's time for Day 3 of…

Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps 2014 Year in Review!

Today's feature is:

Shape Up

Geometric shapes are very trendy right now and this fun set is perfect for creating backgrounds, chevrons, borders, and even more as you will see in the fabulous samples for today.

Kim is back, and just look at this gorgeous combination of colors and papers.  Those fun balloons were made with the tear drop shape in the Shape Up stamp set.  Faux stitching, Baker's Twine, and a cute Scallop Border on the tag add to the charm of her beautiful card.

I was able to achieve a watercolor look with the hexagon shape from the Shape Up stamp set and a few spritzes of water to make a background for my Christmas card.  Other products from the Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps Store used on the card are Christmas Silhouettes, Christmas Silhouettes Dies, and Vintage Postcard!

Here are some other samples from the past that were made in 2014:

How cute is this!  Bridget used two of the shapes from the Shape Up stamp set to make this adorable flower.  The sentiment is from the Inspirational Word Art stamp set.

Giovana used the chevron from the Shape Up stamp set to draw attention to the Heart die cut!  What a wonderful way to use up those DP scraps, and don't you just love the stitching?  The sentiment is from the Valentine Critters Stamp set which is only available right now as part of our current Sweet Perks Bundle!

The rounded square shape was used by Jessica to create a focal point for her sentiment which is from the God Is Bigger clear stamp set.  A bit of felt, ribbon, lace, and trim give a touch of elegance to this beautiful card made with the Shape Up stamp set!

Love how Diane used the chevron image in the Shape Up stamp set to create a border for her pretty card.  An embedded Monarch Butterfly Die cut and a sentiment from the Bloom & Grow stamp set coordinate perfectly with her DP!

The Shape Up stamp set is currently available in the Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps Store.  If you haven't had a chance to get this wonderful set yet, head on over to the store and grab one today!

We will resume our 2014 Year in Review on Monday…be sure to stop back to see another fabulous stamp set from this past year!

A Reflection of Our Creator

Oh wow--  What a happy dance it's been, to show off some of my favorite Sweet 'n' Sassy stamp sets!  Many, many thanks for inviting me to be guest designer for May.

I saved this one for my last post.  This sentiment from Grunge Elements sums up my feeling for paper crafting.  If my projects show talent, then God gets the glory, I get the fun and others (hopefully) get some encouragement and enjoyment.  The image shows another one of my playgrounds:  math.  In particular, geometry.  Can you see the radial symmetry and pattern of the hexagons within a hexagon?  I built it by using a negative hexagon die cut to guide the placement of each of the inverted hexagons from Shape Up stamp set.  I used a rainbow of colors, symbolizing God's promises.

For all that, I kept it clean and simple.

Thanks again, and blessings on us all!

Mid Winter Shape Up

Hello Everyone!
 We have made it half way through February and I have to believe that spring is right around the corner!  That said, these cold winter days do make good crafting days!
I have 3 cards to share with you today~

I used the very versatile Shape Up Stamp Set for this masculine and very mailable birthday card.  The shape was stamped in a repeating pattern to create my background.  The sentiment panel uses a technique I do not use enough- stamping a sentiment over an image. I used a stamp from the Serene Silhouettes Stamp Set and using kraft ink, stamped off once and then stamped onto my card stock.  I added the sentiment and drew a line around the panel with a fine tip marker.  I have been hoarding this ribbon for quite some time, but this seemed the perfect card to use it on. 

This next card uses another image from Shape Up and also uses its coordinating die.

I also used the  Bloom and Grow set as well as the Delightfully Delicate Background.  I stamped my three hexagons and die cut them out.  The flower was stamped and fussy cut out and I used the Small Leaves Die for the leaves (well, I guess that was obvious!).  My background panel was stamped in red on kraft card stock using the Delightfully Delicate Background image.  I added a decorative edge using the Scalloped Border Dies.

Lastly, I have a cheery card made with the Keep in Touch Stamp Set~

Washi tape is the main ingredient on this card.  I added diagonal strips of 4 different tapes to a panel of white cs and popped it up on dimensionals.  The rest of the background is dry embossed.  I curved the sentiment stamp to be able to stamp it around the inside edge of my circle.  The phone was die cut out with its matching die and popped up on dimensionals. 

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Have a blessed week!

Good morning!

I'm so excited to join you today and share a card that I made using two of our new February release stamp sets - one of which coordinates with an already release die set!  

The sentiment is from the new Bloom & Grow stamp set (which is lovely!!) and the petals were cut from one of the Shape Up dies.  As you can see, I choose a variety of papers to cut from - some patterned, some white, and some solid yellow.  I embossed a couple and then stamped a few with the new coordinating stamp set called Shape Up. 

 I LOVE this new Shape Up stamp set and had lots of fun playing with the shapes for my cards that you'll be seeing soon!

Have a great day - see you soon with more new Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps goodness!

Jessica
