Sassy Studio Designs FAN-tastic Valentine Blog Hop

Welcome to the Sassy Studio Designs FAN-tastic Valentine's blog hop! (Please don't let Jon distract you... We'll get to him in a minute!)

That's right; they're finally here! The long awaited fan suggested images have been brought to life by the lovely and talented Lindsay! And they are cuter, sexier, and more fabulous than we even imagined! If you arrived here from Kate's blog you're on the right track. If not, you'll want to go back to the SSD blog and start from the beginning so you don't miss a thing!

I was lucky enough to have one of my very own suggestions make it to Lindsay's drawing board! And you'll see Wonder Regan just as soon as she lands that invisible plane of hers! (Okay, I admit it; I went too far with the procrastination this time and she isn't ready yet! But she will be eventually and maybe you'll stop back.)

WONDER REGAN

Well, after a four hour "nap" I was able to get back up and finish my card. I have been so exicted to use these papers from the DCWV All ABout Boys stack! The sentiment is from a Michaels Recolllections acrylic stamp set called "Comic Talk". Perfect, right? This super lady is colored with Copics and Prismacolor Art Markers, fussy cut, and popped up on foam squares. Flowers and bling flourish are from my stash. The star was cut using my Nesties die and the border is a punch from Martha Stewart. I've used the current sketch over at Cards & Things (#107) as my layout.

Markers used: Copics (E11, E21, E00, R20, W4, W6, W8, W10, Y35, B02, B04, B06, R27, R29) and Prismacolor Art Markers (149, 209).

Since it's almost Valentine's Day, Rebecca (our amazing new release and blog hop coordinator) thought it would be fun for the design team to each share their celebrity Valentine with you. I asked if I had to pick just one (don't want the boys getting jealous and fighting now, do we?! lol). She said I was only allowed one celeb Valentine. (Can you imagine!?) So anyway, I have to go with my boy, Jon Bon Jovi! I have loved him, his music, and his hair since I was 12 years old, and so he has to be the one! Not only is he a talented and enduring musician, he seems like he's a genuinely nice guy! Plus he is one heck of a stage performer! I have seen him in concert MANY times and even got to meet him once. I have a picture somewhere.... It's a group photo of everyone at the meet and greet that night, but guess who is standing right in front of JBJ? Yup. That would be me! So Jon is my celebrity Valentine - I {heart} him! *giggles like a school girl* However, I would like to give shout outs to actors David Boreanaz (Buffy, Angel, Bones) and Nathan Fillion (Firefly, Castle) as well! Hey, a girl can dream, can't she?!?

Edit: I found my photo of me with Bon Jovi!
I'm the one in front of Jon on the right side of the photo.
This was taken February 19, 1993!

Now, if you can tear yourself away from Jon, you'll want to continue on the hop! Your goal is to make it back to the SSD blog where you will leave us a comment telling us who your celebrity Valentine is and why! One random winner from these comments will win 3 images from the new FAN-tastic release! While you're there you can also let us know if you'd be interested in applying for our guest design team spot for March. Simply add your name to the linky tool at the bottom of the post on the SSD blog and you'll be in the running! And don't forget to leave the design team members some love as you go too (it is a Valentine's hop after all!) because 2 random winners from all these comments will be selected to win 1 image! How FAN-tastic is that? Here is the complete hop order in case you get lost. Rebecca will be your next stop from here!
