Simply Thankful and Enjoy!

Hello Sassy fans! I hope your Monday is off to a good start.  Today is my last post of this year and I have two projects to share with you. First, I have Cinders who I thought would be great for this...

Thank You card I needed for someone. I've used some wonderful MME papers and colored her up to match.

I also wanted to take the opportunity to Thank you all for stopping by every day and leaving us such wonderful comments. You guys are the best!

Secondly, I've made this...

little tag with Domestic Goddess. I've been known to hand out the baked goods now and again so I thought a tag would come in handy. This is also the first time I've made a tag of this sort I'm happy with,yay.  It's still not quite as good as some, but I'll keep working on it.


Well that's all for me for 2011 I'll see you back here next year! Until then I wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!


Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful day!

Tag time

Yeah you know me and my tags..

Still working on them all though I have given up having one for every gift..

I've used Cinders to show how easily she can be made Christmassy 

as well as many of the other Simply Sassy stamps..

The papers is by Poppy design. 

Snow crystal is Magnolia die

And the Sassy girl is colored with Copic markers.

Hope you have a great week and I will  be back with a little post this Monday :)

And for those of you who like to enter our Sweet Sassy Saturday,

this next one you got to enter by Sunday night..

Just like to warn you about stuff like that so if your out this weekend maybe you can

find some way to stop by anyway..

Lots of Hugs Maria 

The bigest Sassy Spotlight bash ever!!

We're having a Christmas break and this will be the last Spotlight this year,

I will come back with more info this Monday.

But I was thinking long and hard who would be smashing enough to use on this last Spotlight..

And then I came in mind that we have had so many amazing girls here visiting us on Tuesdays this year..

So I invited a bunch of girls to join us..

(I could have invited all of the spotlight girls but then I wold probably have used a day writing up this post)

So here they are 9 Amazing talents..

Do visit their blogs and leave some love♥

And they will be shown in a random order,

as their just as amazing as the next one ♥

Tuesday Spotlight

This week we have a very sweet crafter named

Mary J joining us...

I have known Mary J for over a year and have always loved her beautiful cards.  I'm sure you will love them too.

Here is what Mary J made for us today

Using Cinders

Here is a little about Mary J and some of the beautiful cards from her blog:

*Start by telling us a little about you:

Well, how to cut down 43 years in a paragraph...lol! In short, I am married to Steve (been together for over 14 years) and we live in a small village in East Sussex in the South East of England with our two Yellow Labradors, Poppy (4) and Lulu (2). Work-wise I am a project manager based in Central London. We do a lot of walking and spend a lot of time with our families. Our dream is to emigrate and own a beach front house in New Zealand or Australia - perhaps one day!

Using Pillow Talk

*When did you start card making and what made you start?

I first became aware of cardmaking when a work colleague sold her cards at work. Then, when Steve and I decided to get married 4 years ago, I decided to make my own wedding stationery. I was very proud of it but looking at them now, I'm embarrassed! Hey, we learn and grow huh?!!

Using Bad Hare Day

*What is your preferred coloring medium?

I love to watercolour using my Aqua Promarkers, but I end up using my Copics for ease!

Using Spread Your Wings

*What is your fav Simply Sassy stamp?

Well it was Spread Your Wings - I just love the whimsical look on her face with her huge thoughtful eyes! But I bought the November set #11 and now my fave has to be Cinders!

*How did you notice the Simply Sassy stamps the first time?

I was already a regular customer of Funky Kits so when Simply Sassy popped into the shop, it was love at first sight!

Using I Give You My Heart

*What is your favourite style (card making)?

I love to experiment so my style can vary a lot from clean lines to shabby chic. The most common theme though through all my cards is lots and lots of layers!

*And what would you love to see more of at the Simply Sassy blog?

I love the blog just the way it is - the inspiration, the spotlights, the challenges - so continue with that please!

Using Pillow Talk

Thank you Mary J for letting us Spotlight you and your fabulous cards!

Please leave Mary J some sweet comments.

Thinking of You

Hello Sassy sweeties.  Aren't these latest girls beautiful?  It looks like you love them as much as the dt does!

I used Cinders on my card today and colored this lovely girl with distress inks.  My colors turned out a bit brighter than my dp but I still think she looks pretty.  I added some lace and ribbon, a handmade flower, and a little heart button.  A very clean and simple card.  I hope you get your Sassy girls out and get inky today.  

You can find Cinders and all her Sassy friends over at Funky Kits.  Don't forget you still have a week to enter the latest Sugar Bowl Challenge for a chance to win some fabulous Sugar Nellie stamps.

Thanks for stopping by.  Hugs, Anita
  
Stamp:  Sugar Nellie Simply Sassy - Cinders

Other:  Distress Inks, lace, ribbon, button

Just because...

Hi ladies, nice to meet you again on this Simply Sassy Inspiration blog, and thank you again for stopping by and the lovely comments!

Today I've used the sweet ''Cinders'' on my card, coloured with Prisma pencils. The papers are some Making Memories scraps, the ''Love Struck'' collection, the flowers are made using a QuicKutz die, for the swirls I've used a Whiff of Joy die and I'm sorry but I can't remember where the sentiment comes from.

Did you go shopping last weekend? I bet you did, the new release is one of the prettiest! Thank you for a great blog hop to all the Simply Sassy fans, enjoy colouring your new beautiful stamps and see you next Monday, same time, same place!

Hugs,

Alina
