Day 1 of Sassy Sneak Peeks

Good evening, hope all is well with you.  I know I should’ve had this posted sooner, but I’ve been really lazy today and did nothing.  Except watch Football.  It’s time for sneak peeks from Sassy Studio Designs.  Saturday is release day, and your in for a treat!  We are focusing on Halloween this month, and they are awesome.  I have the “PHANTOM OF THE OPERA” image.

WOO HOO! A Challenge Card and An Announcement

Good morning to you!  Hope all is well with you.  I have another announcement-I’ve been asked to be a guest designer for Jellypark.  I’m so excited, and I’ve been holding this in long enough.  If you’ve never seen the Jellypark images, just click on the name and you will be taken to the store.  They are absolutely adorable!  So today starts a new challenge at the Jellypark challenges.  This week they would like you to make something to “PASS ON”.  Meaning that you make it and actually pass it on, not just throw it in the box like I do.  I used the new image called “SPACE ROCKET”. 

I just love this image, so much fun to color!  It seems that all my friends children are having birthdays lately, so that is where this is going.  The sketch is from a Mojo Monday sketch a couple of weeks ago.  I colored with my copics, and distressed with Tim Holtz distress inks.  The papers are from My Minds Eye. 

I’m entering this into the following challenges:

The Crazy Challenge – spots/stripes

As you can see I went with a Halloween card again.  The brad is the top left corner, and the bling is on top of the button.  This is also being entered into the following:
