Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps Birthday Blog Hop



Hello and welcome to the Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps Birthday Blog Hop!  Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps is so excited to be celebrating four wonderful years and I am very excited to get to have the chance to join in on the fun! I have been familiar with this outstanding company since the beginning when Korin sponsored the CPS blog. In addition to that Sweet n Sassy was one of the first companies I illustrated for so they have a special place in my heart. I am blessed to call Korin my friend and thrilled to support her efforts. Now as far as the hop, a fantastic group of Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps design team members past and present, along with some special friends, have put together this Birthday Blog Hop to kick off a whole month of fun. We have 36 stops so the hop will take place over three days - feel free to take your time visiting each blog!  You have until 11:59pm EST November 9th to leave comments on as many blogs as you can.  On Saturday, November 12th Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps will announce FOUR winners (chosen at random from comments on random stops along the hop); each lucky winner will receive a prize pack including stamps, dies, paper & twine valued at $40!

If you have been following along already you should have come from the blog of Shelby Goolsby.  If you are only starting here, please head back to the SNSS blog and go from there.  You won't want to miss any stops along the way!  Also, don't forget to comment on as many stops as you can....the more comments the better your chance of winning one of the fabulous prize packs! :)


For my project, I chose one of Korin's illustrations from Cocoa's Latte.
I just love all of the Cocoa stamps!

 
Stamps: Sweet N Sassy Stamps (Cocoa's Latte) Patterned Papers: My Mind's Eye, Dies: Spellbinders, Markers: Shinhan Touch Twin (shown below)

Here is the complete stamp set:

Here are the colors of Touch Twin markers I used for the adorable image:
