How do, crafty peeps!! Today, I am joyfully participating in the Birthday Bash hop to celebrate 5 years of business with Sweet 'N Sassy Stamps!
Happy Birthday, Sweet 'N Sassy!!
I've "known", Korin Sutherland for several years. I say "known" because for many of those years, ours has been a cyber friendship only. Last spring, I had the pure joy of meeting her in the flesh (and conning her into her first go at Sushi!) I've had the pleasure a few more times since then. She is quick with a smile and kind beyond measure. Hers is the first face I look for at a stampy show on the East Coast!!
I've watched Sweet 'N Sassy grow over the years and am so proud of this company--wishing you many more years of well deserved success!
At the York, PA show, in October, I first saw the images for the Winter Silhouette stamp set and just knew it had to be mine!
Since I couldn't decide which image to feature in my project, I created a little set and used them all!
The cards measure, roughly, 3 1/2" x 5 1/8" and fit a four bar envelope. (I'm not sure what y'all call them, but that's what I call them!)
I adapted the Card Organizer Portfolio concept from the Technique Junkie's 3D and Fun Folds CD to house my little collection.
Each little pocket can hold up to four somethings--cards or envelopes. I kept my color scheme and design simple so the focus would remain on this beautiful stamp set!
I just adore the snowman on this image! Isn't he the cutest? Don't you just half expect him to burst into life and start singing?
No birthday (or blog hop) would be complete without some gifts! Yup! That's right! There are prizes to be had so, make sure to comment along the way! Prizes will be drawn from the comments of four hop participants.......my blog may be THE blog so, leave me some love!
You will have until midnight EST on Friday Nov 30th to comment for a chance to win. Winners will be announced on the Sweet 'N Sassy blog on Saturday, December 1st! Best of luck!
I hope you've enjoyed my project and are feeling all nice and stampy now!
TTFN, Jane
These are all a lot of fun. :D

Oh, how pretty Jane. Love the silhouette images with the dry embossed element. Very elegant cards. The sponging looks great! Also like the holder. So glad you joined us in the hop.
