Announcing my Little Mice Special Offering!

Each month from April - August, I will be offering a special “Little Mouse” special which will include two exclusive stamps that are only available to CTMH Makers, and two card kits using the featured stamps (one each of each style).  

When you become one of my VIPS, or make a $75 purchase (before shipping and tax) collectively in my In All Sassiness Designs Shop or at www.tonyasheridan.ctmh.com, you will receive that month’s Little Mouse special as my gift of thanks to you.  The cards are pre-cut, pre-cut & include the embellishments, instructions and a color photo.  I will be teaching the set as a class that will be recorded and may be watched live or in play-back.  

Included in the kit, and on the post introducing each months special set, I will be sharing the non-consumable items that were used to create the cards as well in case you want to order them or you can certainly use the supplies that you have at home.  

For those who would like additional cards, or just want to order the card sets - they will be available for purchase without the exclusive stamp sets here in my shop: these come as a set of 4 - 2 each of two designs.

 Note: a few sales exclusions do apply and I will post those when I share the special each month.  

So now that you know all of the details, here is my April Little Mice collection!

I love this little guy and his (or her) little umbrella!!  I thought the blues and yellows worked well for the "rainy day" concept and adored the softness of the mix-in papers.  Although hard to see in the left card, the stitched designs are all traced with the Clear Shimmer Brush and the Lemonade base is accented with the Lemonade Shimmer Brush.  Adorable right?

"circle card"

Blossom meets Thistle Fundamentals!

Today I wanted to share my new Thistle card set!  Occasionally, I see a stamp, or dream up a combination with one of my scrappers or team members in mind, and such was the case with these cards.   One of my scrappers, Valerie, who has scrapped with me for years, has just started to create cards as well and her favorite CTMH color is Thistle.  While going through some retired products, I found these Paper Fundamentals in the Thistle color and that was all there was!  I had to blend the papers and the stamp set to create this set for her.

While difficult to see in the photo, the paper on the left card has a tone on tone embossed design on it making the cards all the more elegant.  I used both the Clear Shimmer Brush and the Diamond Clear Stickles on the cards to add what I would call additional elegance.  

The cards were created with the Cherished Blossoms stamp and Thin Cut sets.  One of my favorites! The Thin Cuts are amazing, cut quite cleanly and are the perfect size for a layout or a card, but one can't just note those, the stamps are adorable as well.   This was a special stamp and thus only available for a limited time.  You can find it on my website by clicking here.

If this card set really sparks your inner card maker, it is now available in my In All Sassiness Designs Shop in a limited quantity.  

Sassyfully Yours,

Tonya

Party Time in full Flamingo!

Flamingo is such a bright and fun color!  And the Shimmer Trim just makes it look all the more fabulous!  Partnered with the cheerfulness of the Party Time paper collection, the color just makes me so very happy!!

For this layout, I used the Flamingo Shimmer Trim (cut in half vertically) to create the borders between the patterned paper blocks.  I adore how it enhanced the blocking look and truly pulled all of the patterns together. 

The fine details:  White Flower sequins with a dot of Diamond Clear Stickles in the center.

Stickers added for depth.

Borders created with the Flamingo Shimmer Trim.

One of many great things about the Party Time collection is that it is dual sided - one side of the paper is in pink and orange tones and the opposite is in blues and greens.  AND even better, this paper collection is featured in our annual Idea Book so if is available until August 2021.

Here is how I incorporated my own photos of my niece's birthday with this layout:

SJLS #31 Complete Admiration Layout

Sassy January Layout Series #31:  Complete Admiration Layout

Welcome to the 31th segment in a series of 31 that will be shared during the month of January/early February.    Click here to find out about the Sassy January/February Layout Series.

Today I am sharing the final layout in my series.  It took me longer than expected to share all 31 layouts, however, I hope you have enjoyed these postings.  The final layout is in honor of International Polar Bear Day and will be used by me to share some photos of my son's pilgrimages to see his beloved polar bears.

The paper has a masculine or outdoorsy feel, yet is delicate enough to use with a baby etc.  I used the Thin Cuts from the Aurora card making workshop for the worlds which I truly loved!  I have had these Thin Cuts since the summer and hadn't used them yet...now I am addicted to them and have been making lots of cards with them!  Love, love, love!

Stamped details and pattern details.

How fun is it to mix pattern papers?  As these are smaller prints, they work well to mix and match as one doesn't overpower the other.

The title was cut with Close To My Heart's Artisrty Cricut Collection.

The worlds, and their bases, are cut with our retired Aurora Card Kit Thin Cut which is quickly becoming one of my faves!  Such a cool design! 

Supplies used:  (retired) Aurora Paper and Card Making Thin Cuts.  (X5957) Sapphire cs, (X6045) Sage cs, (X5978) Glacier cs, (1385) White Daisy cs, (Z2831) Charcoal Exclusive Ink Pad, (Z2848) Sapphire Exclusive Ink, (Z4191) Silver Glitter Gems.

SJLS #30 Smitten by you layout

Sassy January Layout Series #30:  Smitten By You Layout

Welcome to the 30th segment in a series of 31 that will be shared during the month of January/early February.    Click here to find out about the Sassy January/February Layout Series.

This layout was created with our fantastic Artbooking Cricut Collection.  The collection is filled with over-the-top overlays and patterns that were designed to partner together and of course are interchangeable to meet your own needs.  

For this particular layout, I used a combination of Cricut cuts, inks, metals, sparkles and several other mediums to create a layout where there is no patterned paper, but stands alone beautifully without it.  The original design was showcased in a Close To My Heart publication and I problem solved how to then create the layout.  I am delighted with my finished project.

The combination of the metals with the neutral papers pair so well together!

So many fun stamping details!

Details of the embellishing:  shimmer trim, Cricut cutting, sparkles and stamping.

The Thin Foam Tape makes such a difference!  Love the alternating letters.

Supplies used:  (retired) Crush embellishments, flowers, Sky cs, Whisper & Slate cs..  (X5985) Smoothie cs, (1385) White Daisy cs, (retired - but could use (Z3239) Silver Glitter Paper) Silver Shimmer Trim, (Z3274) Clear Sparkles.

SJLS #29 Charlotte Layered Flip Flap Layout

Sassy January Layout Series #29:  Charlotte Layered Flip Flap Layout

Welcome to the 29th segment in a series of 31 that will be shared during the month of January/early February.    Click here to find out about the Sassy January/February Layout Series.

The soft, yet neutral, colors make this layout perfect for so many photo possibilities!  My layout, as you will see below, was used to showcase some very cherished photos from a choir loft in Florence, but my mind immediately thinks how perfect this layout would be for a wedding or baby photos.  

The layout highlights our 8" x 12" Flip Flaps, which are stacked to overlap on the left page.  I did not photograph with the Flip Flaps as they tend to create too much of a glare.  There are five 8" photo spaces within the flip flaps and the left page which allow many photo options.  I have chosen to use all 8" x 8" photos but you could do bordered photos or even a photo collage.  The photo space on the right page is an 8" x 10" photo.  This of course could be altered to any size of your choosing.

Two 8" x 12" Flip Flaps are used on this layout.  They fold over each other on the left page.

Sequins details:  the Rose Gold Sequins paired beautifully with the Charlotte paper.  Here they are shown cascading down the floral paper.

Make sure to check back to see how I used my personal photos with this layout.

Supplies used:  (retired) Charlotte paper.  (Z4065) Rose Gold Loose Sequins, (Z341) Mini Glue Dots, (1385) White Daisy cs, (Z3443) 8" x 12" Flip Flaps, (Z2060) Thin Foam Tape, (Z3372) Adhesive Runners.  Current supplies can be ordered at:  www.tonyasheridan.ctmh.com.
