Happy Birthday Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps!

Good morning and welcome to the Sweet 'n Sassy Friends of SNSS Blog Hop!! I'm so excited and honored to be participating in this fun day celebrating   SNSS's 5th birthday!!!

I first met Korin at Stamping Around PA 3 years ago (wow time flies!). Since then, I've had the pleasure of being on The Sweet Stop (her sketch challenge blog) design team and of seeing her this past Summer in NH!  I love that Korin (and her husband) run the business with integrity. She is giving, loving and a talented artist to boot!  Thanks so much for inviting me to participate Korin - Happy 5th Birthday and may you have many more!!

Now, a few details:

~There will be 4 random participants from whom 1 commenter will be chosen to receive a $15 store credit.  
~To be included in the drawings, comments must be left by midnight EST Friday, November 30th.
~The winners will be announced on the SNSS Blog on December 1st at 8am EST

Ok, let's get to the card!  I pulled out a set I bought last year, Christmas Light by dkDesigns (by Dina Kowal ).   The image is just gorgeous and the sentiments in the set are timeless!  I also have the coordinating die, Christmas Light Die which makes this set even more fun to use!

I used this week's Card Sketch Challenge on SCS for the layout - love this one, nice and clean the way I like them! :)  I also used beautiful paper from Simple Stories. This image is just so nice to color as the shading is mostly all done for you - or at least it shows you where to shade! I love that!  I ran out of room for the sentiment so I had to stack it, but I plan on using one of the other sentiments on the inside of the card.

Thanks for sticking with me on this long post! Don't forget to comment for a chance to win a prize!! You should see all the participants below and be able to click through to the person right after me!! Have fun hopping!
