Bethany Notecard Box Set

I love Target's Dollar Spot. It's such a fun place to shop :).....you never know what fun little goodies you will find. I especially love when they have little boxes and trinkets that can be altered with paper-crafty goodness :).


I found these adorable little boxes this past week that are perfect for a set of notecards and since we are revealing our Secret Sisters tonight at our church's Ladies Fellowship, I thought a cute box of notecards would be the perfect reveal gift :). I have had to BUY everything for my secret sister all year or she would have known it was me :)!! The ladies at my church know me so well ;).

The Bethany image on the top of the box is from Sending Hugs Bethany which is also available as a digi. The sentiments on the note cards (there are four in total, but I only have 2 pictured here) are from various other Sweet 'n Sassy stamp sets.

I used Echo Park's Little Girl paper and some Pink Sorbet Baker's Twine which both go very nicely with the cute polka dot box. I also picked up from Target's Dollar Spot the cute gift bag pictured here. It came in a pack of two for only a buck! Love that!

Thanks for stopping by today!

Showers of Blessing

It's been raining here all week so my card is quite appropriate :). I made this for the Free 4 All challenge on Splitcoaststampers today which is to use opposite colors on the color wheel. I chose Violet-Red & Yellow-Green. I used the adorable Rainy Day Bethany stamp with a sentiment from Let it Rain and the papers are from We R Memory Keepers and Echo Park Paper. The layout is this week's Viva La Verve sketch.

So, I finally ordered the amazing Janome Sew Mini sewing machine and just got it a couple of days ago. Let me tell you, I LOVE this little machine. I cannot stop sewing on my cards!!! It's fabulous! Can you tell I have a problem. I think I machine stitched on every single panel on this card! LOL!

Thanks for stopping by today!! We are heading to Washington D.C. tomorrow on a homeschool bus trip. I am looking forward to a fun time with my family :).

Bethany just makes me smile :). I hope she makes you smile, too!

Bunny Love

Happy Saturday, friends!

It's that time again...sketch time :) and today's Sweet Stop Sketch is calling YOUR name :)!

Here's my card with a slight variation....I made a square card instead of a standard A2 card....


Anytime is a good time for a love themed card, don't you agree :)? And I had so much fun with this one. Bethany Bunny is always fun to color and the stitching, ribbon and buttons are the perfect touches to add to the whimsy of the image (Love You Bethany). I also love the scalloped edges and I may have to use them more often :).

Thanks so much for joining me today. I hope you will stop by The Sweet Stop, grab the sketch and play along!

Hugs and blessings,

100th Sketch Double Take

I really like this week's Sweet Stop sketch, our 100th sketch :).....so I played with it again.....this time with one of our new Bethany Bunny images. Isn't she sweet :)?


The pretty papers are from Echo Park's Springtime collection. They worked so nicely with this softly colored image and I think the pink ribbon adds just the right amount of "pop" :).

Thanks for stopping by today and.....HAPPY FIRST DAY OF SPRING 2011!! :)

Inky hugs,

Think Spring!

Oh yeah, baby, that is what I am doin' ;)! It was 74 degrees here yesterday!

Bethany is ready for spring, too! You are going to be seeing a lot more of her in the weeks to come :). I have been having a blast drawing her and I hope you love her as much as I do :). This image is available as a digi, but you just might be seeing it available in a clear stamp set very soon ;).

Over at The Sweet Stop it's time for our monthly Sketch with a Spin and that means a sweet prize :). Our spin is to Think SPRING :). Easy one, right :)? So grab the sketch and your supplies and let's see what you got!

Inky hugs,

Love is in the Air Blog Hop starts today!

I am so excited about today's customer appreciation blog hop :). I hope you'll check back on the Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps Blog throughout the weekend so you don't miss any of the stops.

For the hop this weekend I am sharing a sweet new digi image we just released today called Bethany Sends Her Love. I have been having a blast drawing this sweet little bunny so you will be seeing lots of her in the near future!


The DP is from K&Company's KP Valentine pad. I saw this paper at Michaels the other day and I just HAD to get it :). I added some Stickles, square rhinestones, ribbon, and a punched border. Then I used the fun curled corners technique up in the top right corner just to finish it off. The sentiment is from the Somebuggy Loves You clear stamp set.

Thanks for hopping by today. Be sure to head back to the Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps Blog for the full list of participating blogs.

Inky hugs to you!
