Sassy Saturday Spotlight

 I am a day late and a dollar short with Sassy Saturday this week.  Can you guess why I didn't label this post Sassy Saturday Sistah?


 Our featured crafter this week is Kevin from McCrafty's Cards
Here is his fabulous card.
I chose to feature this card for several reasons.  For one it is gorgeous and well balanced.  the coloring is amazing.  I just love her hair.  Second, I wanted to show that it isn't just women who enjoy crafting withYimages from Sassy Studio Designs.  Hop on over to Kevin's Blog and show him some love.
Congrats Kevin!!

If you would like to be featured as a Sassy Saturday Sistah, then please email me at juliescraftyspot at yahoo dot com

Holiday Honey Preview Day 5!

Happy Thursday everyone.  We are only two days away from the Sassy Studio Designs Holiday Honey Release Party.  Woooo Hoooooo!!!  But first, we have another amazing preview for you.  Today's Holiday Honey is Aurora.  Sleeping Beauty is up from her slumber and ready to help you celebrate the holidays.




As you can see, Kate and I colored Aurora in a very similar fashion.  What can I say other than great minds think alike.  Great job Kate. 

But wait, there's more!  More you say...yes more.  Today we have a double preview.  Here is our Holiday Victorian image.






How lovely are these two cards?  I love Christine's background.  It is perfect for this image.  Karen went simply and soft.  So lovely.  If you are like me, you already have an idea of how you would use this beautiful Victorian Honey.

Tomorrow is the last preview and then it is on to the hop.  Hope to see you there.

Holiday Honey Preview Day 4!

Here we are in the middle of the countdown.  Can you stand the excitement?!  Today Sassy Studio Designs brings you a beautiful and elegant Holiday Bride.






These two ladies amaze me.  The same beautiful image, they went with opposite colors and both came out absolutely stunning!!  Soft, elegant, beautiful.  My niece is getting married next year and I think this image will be perfect for her card.  I might steal Rachelle's doily idea too.  I don't think she will mind.

Tomorrow is my turn to preview an image.  I will give you a hint, she sleeps a lot.  See you tomorrow and see you Saturday for the big blog hop!
