Sweet Anniversary and Release Day 2!



Hello! 

Welcome back! 

You should be arriving here from 

MISTY!



If not, you'll wanna start at the beginning 

Sweet Stamp Shop 


Are you excited about this release? I am I am!! 

I can't wait to show off the sets in all they're glory! 

I don't know if it's my age or that I live in San Diego 
BUT...

I loved drawing, and eventually coloring, this set - it has to 

be one of my favorites of all time! 

Check out a couple of the projects 
I've made so far using this *super* versatile 
set! I think you're going to LOVE! 


I love this color combo for this card! It's not what you 
might typically reach for - but, it's classic and, I think, really 
fun to use! 


I'm also addicted to using the little alpha stickers - 
I own them in all the colors and I can't get enough! 


Then I made a sign using a chip board 'title' I found 
in the dollar bin! It turned out so darn cute! AND, I would 
rather be swimming! Always! 


Take a close up look at that lil mermaid! 
Isn't she so cute! 




I love to use vellum on everything these days - 
I really liked it for this project b/c I could get a 
*water-y* look by coloring on the back of the vellum - 
isn't it a great effect!?


And, I even added some micro beads (clear) to the 
jelly fish! It's so great up close! 



I hope that you're getting excited for our release 
and that you're entering in on the big prize!! 
Head back to the Sweet Blog to make sure you're entered - 

We'll see you back here tomorrow for 
another peek at what's coming! 

Happy Crafting!
