Going Forward…Looking Back!

[image]

Good morning, hope all is well with you!  We are back and ready to show you some sassiness!  We are doing more Disney Villains with a  Lindsay spin on them!  As you can see it is a 2 day hop.  We split the team in half and each one did one day this weekend.  We thought it might make it easier on you.  And give you plenty of time to hop along!  You should have arrived here from the SSD blog, and when you leave you will be visiting the very talented Starla.  Ok, so here are some rules for you.  You need to visit each person for that day and leave comments along the way.  Make sure you visit the SSD blog as well.  2 Randomly selected people will win 2 of the the new images, and 1 randomly selected person will win all 4!  Now, remember this is for each day, so make sure you do both hops for double the chance to win.

Since it’s the start of the new year, Kim thought we should not only move forward, but take a look back at our favorite SSD creation from last year.  So, for my new part I used the new Maleficent Sassy.

SSD-maleficent 

Is she Sassy or what???  Since it’s almost Valentine’s Day, I went with a love theme.  The sentiment is from the Fairytale Collection that Lindsay used to have available.  We are supposed to use something of our favorites.  One of mine is this sentiment, the other is my new paper from Authentique.  This is an amazing collection.  I also used some yummy flowers that the wonderful Kim sent to me.  Aren’t they just gorgeous?!  And of course she is all colored in Copics and they are most definitely a fave of mine.  Now for my favorite creation from last year-I’m going to have to go with the Marie Antionette card:

SSD marie antionette

I just love the colors and the lace and all of the flowers! 

Thank you so much for stopping by and have a wonderful day!  From here you should be visiting Starla.

Clean and Simple

Good morning, hope all is well with you!  I know it’s been forever since I posted.  I’m still here, I didn’t fall off the face of the earth! 

Friday was the start of a new challenge at Card Makin’ Mamas and it’s an a CAS challenge.  Now, even though I don’t put a lot of stuff on my cards, these kind of challenges make me a nervous wreck!  So, I found a simple little sketch and went from there.

Did You Guess Right?

Good morning, hope all is well with you!  Well….did you guess what any of the Little Honey’s Disney Villains were?  Did you even guess that they were Disney villains?  Well, Lindsay did an outstanding job on this release!  These villains are GORGEOUS!

Ok, onto business!  You should have arrived here from the lovely Jovan’s blog, if you got lost along the way go back to SSD and there will be a master hop list.  I’m sure you gathered we are doing a hop but we are also doing a scavenger hunt!  So, you will need to get the list from the SSD blog and go from there!  That is where you will find the prize info too!  And you know you don’t want to miss that!  So, this time around we were asked to put our best villany(word)  sentiment on our projects.  I kept it really boring and went with a traditional “Queen of Hearts” sentiment.

SSD-queen-of-hearts

We were also asked to tell you our favorite Disney movie-well after thinking about it for a LONG time-because I love all Disney movies-I decided on Bambi.  Bambi, because I remember seeing this in the theatre with my grandmother when I was VERY young! 

Don’t forget that we will be chatting tonight on the SSD party blog-there is a link on the Sassy Studio Designs blog.  Don’t miss it, you never know what will happen!!!!

Something A Little Different

Good Sunday afternoon, hope all is well with you!  I have another one of my DT projects from Rock, Paper, Scissors to share with you.  Now, I have to admit this turned out completely different than what I started out doing!  I hate it when that happens!

shaker-card

Ok, so this is a shaker card-which I’ve never done before.  But, here’s the catch, it was supposed to have an image behind it!  I forgot that little detail, until the back was already on-of course!  But, I like the way it turned out anyway.  The paper is from Echo Park, and let me just say-I love this paper!  The sketch is from Made Especially For You.  Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful day!

Good evening, hope all is well with you!  After a short break Card Makin’ Mamas is back!  So, our challenge to you is to “Use a New Technique”.  I thought and thought about what I wanted to do.  And after many attempts, I settled on a double fold pocket card.

CMM-something-new

The image is from Dilly Beans, isn’t it just too cute!?!  She’s all colored in Copics, and I added alot of bling and flowers.  The bling in the middle of the bow is actually a skull and crossbones.
