Hi Stampers!

I am so excited to hold our first MONTHLY Sassy Stamper Card Buffet event at my home in Peoria, AZ on December 8th from 1-4pm.

That's right. . .Run your weekend errands in the morning and get ready for some Saturday afternoon fun!

You are welcome to come anytime during that 3 hour slot! Just leave yourself plenty of time to finish all the cards you will want!!!

So you may be wondering. . .What in the world is a card buffet? JUST ABOUT THE BEST THING EVER.

*Make as many or as few of each of the 7-10 available cards as you would like (while supplies last). ***THIS EVENT WILL FEATURE CHRISTMAS AND NON-CHRISTMAS CHOICES*** Great opportunity to make some extra Christmas cards if you still need some!

*Price is per card and the prices will range from $2 to $5 per card or project ($5 choices will be more complex and most likely use specialty products).

*If you place a $30 Stampin' Up! order at the party, I will give you $10 worth of card making credit that day! No pressure to buy. . .I really just LOVE to make cards and small projects and spend time with others that love to papercraft.

What should you bring? Just bring your basic crafting tools such as different types of adhesive and scissors.

Do you need to have stamping experience? No Way!! That's why I'm here. I am your expert and I will teach you whatever you need to know. Some choices will be more complex than others so you can try out your SKILLS.

Payment: Cash, Check, Zelle for the cards/ projects. I can also accept credit cards for any Stampin' Up! order.

We will be featuring Farmhouse Christmas, Nothing Sweeter, Seasoned with Kindness stamp sets & more! 

More sample cards are coming soon but this little gem is a Non-Christmas All Occasion card!!

As I mentioned, this Meetup will be held at my home which is located near 99th and Jomax in Peoria. As the group grows, we may look for a more centralized location.

I look so forward to meeting you and can't wait to share these cards with you. If you are local here in AZ, please join the SASSY STAMPER DESIGNS MEETUP GROUP and RSVP as soon as possible so I know approximately how many cards to cut!

Thanks so much!!

Hi Stampers!

I am coming to you today with a card from the Simon Says Stamp Card Kit of the Month for December.  I absolutely fell in love with this kit and boy oh boy did it sell out quick.  I was so lucky to get one.

The kit came with a really cute stamp set and Doodle Bug 6x6 designer paper along with a bunch of fun stuff to try such as a Chibi set used to create a circuit in a card so the card lights up at the touch of a button.  That is an experiment for another day but I am super excited about it!

The kit also came with pictures of 6 card samples that can be made from the contents.  I really always try to be original but I have to give credit to another designer here.  

This is the picture that came with the kit which was designed by Sarah Moerman:

Here is my version of the card:

I changed it a bit by adding a ribbon to the top and keeping the colors consistent without introducing red into the card.   I have to admit I got a little over zealous with the snowflakes on my version and i prefer Sarah's more clean snowflake placement.  One more thing. . .It is almost impossible to see but I also used a Quickie Glue Pen and some amazing Fun Stampers Journey glitter to a bunch of randomly placed hearts on the pink paper.  It really gives the card some extra pizzazz.

And of course, I designed the inside of the card with some of the same paper, that cute little reindeer which I colored with Spectrum Noir and an awesome stamp from Lawn Fawn (totally obsessed with Lawn Fawn).

Until We Stamp Again!

Hi Everyone-

So I cheated. . .but just a little. . .The Paper Vineyard design team challenge was to make a Halloween project BUT I wanted to give my Halloween class at Paper Vineyard on Sunday a shout out today. So these cards are doing double duty!! I just picked up the stamps for Sunday's class on Saturday due to a delay at the manufacturer so I am currently working on samples. I just finished the first two which I am featuring below. THERE WILL BE 5 SPOOKTACULAR HALLOWEEN CARDS IN THE CLASS.

If you know anything about me. . .You know I LOVE Halloween. This should be a blast.

If you are interested. . .Call Paper Vineyard at 480-656-2068 to sign up today. It will be a blast!!

Paper Vineyard Design Team Challenge-Graphic 45 ABC Primer Collection

Hi Everyone-

Here is today's Paper Vineyard design team challenge:

Kinda cool to go completely outside my comfort zone with this vintage look.

I found a $2 calendar/ planner at Walgreens that I decided to convert into my project this week by decorating the front, inside, and back covers. I figured a teacher would really appreciate this!! For supplies, I kept it simple using black cardstock with the Graphic 45 ABC Primer collection paper. Other than that, I just added some black brads and distressed with brown ink.

The whole paper line along with everything else you may need is available at Paper Vineyard, so stop in.

Happy Stamping!!

Paper Vineyard Design Team Challenge: Spooky Grapevine Designs Custom Album

Hi Everyone-

Here is my latest creation for the Paper Vineyard Design team:

Our challenge was to create a mini album using one of the brand new custom Grapevine Designs mini albums Adriana has been creating for the store. DON'T YOU JUST LOVE THAT SPOOKY TREE? That's chip board cut using a laser cutting machine right in the store. Adriana is taking custom orders for albums but also already has an array on display at the front of the store.

So here's the details on this Halloween scene. . .I used all We R Memory Keepers Spookville paper, chip board and stamps. I also used the Fiskars Grass border punch and Spellbinders Graveyard Scene and Shapes set (airbrushed with Copics). I added Crystal Lacquer to the polka dots on the background paper and black glitter to the tree. So much fun!!

Happy Stamping!!
