Meet Our April Guest Designer!

We have a wonderful guest to introduce you to this month. Before we do, we also have a couple of Design Diva announcements to make. We're saying goodbye this month to Amber Hillman - we sure have loved having you with us on the team, Amber!! Thank you so much for sharing your amazing creativity with the Sweet 'n Sassy team :) Joining the team full-tim will be DJ Rants, who has been our fabulous guest designer for March. We couldn't be more thrilled she's staying on with us!

And now, to welcome our April guest! Please say hello to....Melisa Waldorf!
Hello stampers! I’m Melisa Waldorf and I’m so excited to be the Guest Designer for Sweet N Sassy this month. I am a 46yr old Christian mother, wife, and nurse. We live just outside Houston, TX with our 2 pups, Sophia (Yorkie) and Pepper (Chihuahua). We relocated to Houston from FL 2 years ago. It was a scary and difficult move, but we trusted that God, as always, would take care of us. We had no idea what to expect, but believed that God had a huge blessing for us and I chose to look at it as a surprise gift that He had picked out just for me. I’m so glad we did because we love it here now. What a blessing it has been.
I started stamping and blogging on a regular basis about 3 years ago. I’ve always loved crafting in general, but stamping / card making allowed me to be creative in a different way. With stamping, I was able to choose images that I loved and then design something with them that expressed my own style. It opened up a new door that allowed me to be more creative. And I have been in love with stamping ever since. I’m so thankful for all of the very talented illustrators who share their talents with us through stamping, so that we can express ourselves creatively as well. I love to use my stamps to create a variety of projects. In addition to cards, I use them for scrapbooking, ATC's, art journaling, canvas, and altered projects. I also love to try different styles as well.
I’m excited about sharing my projects with you using this month’s new release stamps! They are soooooo cute! You are going to love them! Thank you again, for letting me be the guest designer this month!
We are really looking forward to working with you this month, Melisa, and can't wait for you to share you Sweet 'n Sassy creations with everyone!

Psalm 139:9-10





I needed a masculine card this week, which is always difficult for me since men don't appreciate doilies, flowers, and lacey borders! I did finally put aside my doily addiction and heat embossed this Sweet n Sassy starfish, placed him on the boardwalk, (hopefully someone will throw him back!) with some sea glass colored Dew Drops and water inspired embossed teal paper. This scripture verse is perfect for any occasion and I mounted it on Spellbinder labels, the bottom one is the new Floral oval, hopefully not too feminine, it reminded me of waves.

Stamps: Sweet n Sassy - Beauty by the Sea
Accessories: embossing folder, Dew Drops, Spellbinder labels and Floral oval die, heat embossing, Tombow markers, foam tape.

Cheers!
DJ Rants
