Chin Up!

Did you remember to change your clocks?  We're "springing forward" again (and lost an hour of sleep...oh my)!  But I am looking forward to longer daylight hours and warmer spring temps...agreed?

Today I have 2 cards to share with one of this month's Sweet 'n Sassy Sweet Perks Club bundles...Windy Winnie!  This first card reminds me that even though the blustery winds of troubled times come into our lives, we must remember that God is ever faithful and we can find the good in our bad days if only we open our eyes to see it.  ;)

the inside...

I love the quote on my second card...and the whimsical boots and umbrella go perfectly with it.

The umbrella was covered with Stickles so it would really sparkle and the boots have a coating of Crystal Lacquer so they are shiny.

You can check out these stamps and dies, along with the other Sweet Perks Club Bundles HERE in the SNSS Store.  But hurry...they are only discounted for a few more days!

March 2015 Sweet Perks Reminder

Hello friends!  Only one more week to take advantage of our March Sweet Perks Club.  The bundles we are offering this month will only be available until Thursday, March 12th, 2015.  Each stamp and die set will then be added to the Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps Store

If you have not had a chance to take a look at the SWEET bundles for this month... 
Just take a look! 

Windy Winnie Bundle

Hillside Edges helped to create this scene using the Windy Winnie Bundle.  Glossy accents was used on the raindrops and the puddle.  The umbrella was paper pieced.

Treasured Bundle

A sentiment from the Everyday Miracles stamp set was added to this card made with the Treasured Bundle.  Some texture was added with Modeling Paste and pearl flourishes.

New Creature Bundle

Have you seen this beautiful card created by Angela using the Bokeh Technique and the New Creature Bundle.  Check THIS post to see Angela's tutorial describing how she made this card.

So what are you waiting for…hurry off to the Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps Store for a SWEET deal.

March Sweet Perks Club

Hello friends! It is that time again! We have some GREAT Spring themed bundles for you this month that you are sure to love.

Before you head to our site to order your bundles, please read ALL of the info below. 

IMPORTANT CLUB INFO: 

Our club bundles will ship 3-4 weeks from the initial release date (that's today) so please keep this in mind when you are ordering.  The earlier you order the sooner your order will ship.  This time frame is necessary to ensure we have enough product on hand to fill orders and enough time to fill those orders.  If you add other items to your club bundle order, those items will also be delayed so it is best to keep your CLUB orders separate from your regular product orders.  We cannot partial ship orders.

Please note:  

Two of this month's bundles include stamp sets that were previously released to our line (New Creature and Treasured stamp sets).  Please make sure you check your personal stamp inventory before ordering so you do not end up with duplicate stamps.  Thank you! 

For those of you NEW to SPC, this is how it works...

On the last Friday of the month we will share the next month's SPC bundle(s) (yes, there may be more than one to choose from!). The bundle(s) will consist of one stamp set and one coordinating die set and they will be available FOR PREORDER at a 20% discount with FREE SHIPPING (US customers only, $3 off shipping for international customers) for only 2 weeks!  The new products in the bundle(s) will be made available later in the month for purchase on our website for the FULL retail price.  

SHIPPING: In order to receive FREE or discounted SHIPPING for your bundle purchase(s) you MUST enter the shipping code found in the bundle description.  Click on the link to the product and scroll down to find it in the product description. We will not be able to credit you back if you forget this step.  Orders are shipped via USPS First Class Mail.

While saving 20% is a pretty sweet deal, that isn't all!  After all, it's called the Sweet PERKS club!!  When you purchase one (or more) of our SPC bundles you will ALSO receive 10% off ANY additional purchases you make that month!! SWEET! 

To "JOIN" our club, all you have to do is order one of the bundles and you are in! There is NO COMMITMENT. YOU get to pick and choose when to participate.  When you do, you get that month's perks, when you don't, you don't.   Pretty simple, huh?

Of course, the savings are GREAT, but we're also throwing in some freebies to reward your continued club participation. 

Check out these SWEET PERKS!

• When you purchase 2 or more SPC bundles in one month you will receive a small surprise gift in that month's SPC shipment.  Who doesn't love fun little surprises? :) SWEET!
• Once your total of SPC bundle purchases reaches 6 (within a 6 month time frame) you will receive a FREE 4x6 stamp set of your choice.  WHAT?  Yes!  YOU get to pick your FREE gift for fulfilling a typical 6 month club term.  EVEN SWEETER!
• Once your total of SPC bundle purchases reaches 12 (within a 12 month time frame) you will receive a FREE SPC BUNDLE of your choice valued between $25 and $30!  THE SWEETEST!
