Sassy Studio Designs is sponsoring Tuesday Morning Sketches this week, and you knew I couldn't resist playing along! Isn't Sketch #93 amazing? My card was made for a good friend who is celebrating her 40th birthday today. She is a police officer and, yes, she is as sassy and sexy as our Lil Honey friend here from Sassy Studio Designs' Service Collection. The papers are from the lilybeedesign Picket Fence 6x6 Tiny Tablet, and I love them! I kept my embellishments pretty simple since the card has to be mailed, but I thought the little vintage key was perfect!
Just a brief post today as I have lots to do... There are always more cards to be made! The Sassy Studio Designs new release has been postponed until next week, but rest assured the images will be fabulous, and the design team will have some fun sneak peeks for you next week, leading up to the release on Saturday.
Thanks for taking a peek and be sure to check out my blog-iversary blog candy post as well!

Happy Mother's Day!!! It is my second one, and every day I marvel at how blessed I am to have my small man in my life! I want to wish all the moms out there a wonderful day! May there be breakfast in bed and flowers and pretty jewelry boxes. Or simply, and best of all, that home-made card with the crayon scribble all over it! I received one that Kayne made in day care and it is the cutest darn thing!
Now, on to business... Being Sunday it's time for another Corrosive Challenge! It's #115, and it's Sketch Time! What a great layout Janet has provided us with this time around! AND it's her birthday weekend so she's offering up some candy! For every 10 entries in the challenge Janet will add another prize. So tell your crafty friends and have everyone play along! You'll want to go check out the blog here for details!
My card is actually a Mother's Day card. One of my brothers asks last night if I could make him a card for our mom! Typical, huh? lol He doesn't request cards often, but they are always last minute. But since he works on all my computer issues, I feel I owe him this when he does. So this is what I came up with. I guess I'm in a steampunk mood! I think she'll like it. How can she not? Dudley by artist Dustin Pike is debonair in his Victorian finest! (I think he was a freebie too!)
I'm also entering this in the Crafty Cardmakers Challenge #45 - Steampunk or Machines!
I hope everyone enjoys their day! Thanks for stopping by and be sure to check back this week because I will have blog candy for you as well as a Sassy Studio Designs new release on Saturday!

I am here with a quick post to share this card with you... Mother's Day is this weekend and over at the Sassy Studio Designs Paper Craft Planet group we have a new Fabulous Freebie Friday image available. She's called Hot Mama and will be up for grabs for 24 hours. So if you want to make her your visit us here and become a member of the group if you aren't already. Then you'll find a discussion with today's date and that's where she'll be!
My card was also made with this week's Dare To Be Sassy Thursday challenge in mind - we want you to make your own flower embelllishments. Mine is an easy one made using a scalloped punch. But look at the pretty results? If you'd like to show us your creations and be eligible to win some Sassy images for free, visit the Sassy Studio Designs blog here to play along.

Hello! It's time for a new Tickled Pink Stamps challenge! This is my 1st one as guest designer, and I'm SO excited that Challenge #18 is a sketch! TPS is currently previewing their images in a new collection called Lil Victorian Steampunk, and I was lucky enough to receive a few of them to play with! Here I've used Lil Victorian Steampunk Lilith. I've never done a Steampunk card before, but after the inspiration from the fabulous design team on the TPS blog, I thought I was ready... I hope you like the result! If you like Lilith, then be sure to check out the stunning samples from the design team on the Tickled Pink Stamps blog!
Tim Holtz products are fabulous for this style, and I used a few of his hardware pieces to dress up my card. I also found a new paper stack from DCWV called Tattered Time that I incorporated. Add some dry embossing, a Martha Stewart border punch and a few Prima flowers and I was quite pleased with my 1st Steampunk effort. The new collection will be available for purchase in rubber on May 7th (that's actually May 6th @ 10am for us in the States since TPS is located in Australia). It took me a bit to figure out the time difference since owner Kellie seems like she's always awake and responding to emails and posts! lol They're also having a Buy 3, Get Your 4th Free sale on their rubber so it's a great time to stock up on these fabulous images! (Note:They will be available as digis for one week this month, starting on the 15th.) You can shop here!
I'd also like to enter this into the Crafty Cardmakers challenge. The theme for Challenge #45 is Steampunk or Machines. How appropriate! :)

Well, another week is upon us, but before I rush off to start my day I wanted to share this card with you. I made it for the latest Tickled Pink Stamps challenge - Lace and Pearls. Though I'm not eligible for prizes now since I'm a guest on the design team for 3 months, I just HAD to play along anyway! Here I've used Lil Fashionette 20s Evie to make a Mother's Day card for my son's paternal grandmother. My layout is this week's sketch, sk43011, from Paper Craft Planet.
I'd also like enter my creation in the following challenges:
I have another busy week of crafting ahead of me... I have some orders that MUST get done and more design team projects to finish. One of these days, I would love to be one step ahead... But I guess we all have dreams, right?! Haha!
Keep your eyes peeled for blog candy this week! It's going to be yummy in celebratation my one year blog-iversary that is coming up at the end of this month.
Have a fabulous day!

It has been a busy crafting weekend for me! The start of a new month today has seen to that! Now that my two Christmas challenges are completed, I'm here to show you this week's Corrosive Challenge creation. This week's theme is a color challenge - turquoise and pink. This was a tough one for me and I had a card with different designer paper that got scrapped so I could start over. I'm glad I did because this is much better.
I used an image from Whiff of Joy that I have had forever but never inked up. She is called Maid Charlotte and is from their medieval collection. Today being May Day I thought she was perfect. My pink flowers are a Dollar Store find! I chose SSS106 from The Sweet Stop as my layout.
It's hard to believe that I will have been blogging for a year this month... Stay tuned because you know something as big as a first blog-iversary will require candy!
It is a lovely day here so I need to get the small man and I moving. Coffee (strawberry milk for my munchkin) and some fresh air sound like the plan! Enjoy your day!

Well, it's pretty simple. 1) You MUST use a Sassy Studio Designs image on your creation. 2)The jolly old elf or his Mrs. need to appear somewhere on your project (could be in your main image, a background image, designer paper, or embellishments). 3) Link here before May 31st to be eligible to win 2 Sassy Studio Designs images of your choice.
I call my card "Making a List". The image is actually called Santa's List. Ms Sassy Claus has all the SSD design team members on her roster. I hope that means we're getting crafting supplies! lol My layout is the sketch from Week 153 at Sketch Saturday.
I hope you'll join us in getting a jump start on your holiday cards!
