SNSS New Release Friday Feature 13

Hello and welcome to Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps New 

Release Friday Feature and Challenge! The Design Team 

have come up with some lovely samples with one of the recently 

released sets now available at the SNSS Store.

This week we're highlighting the sweet set 

Sunshine and Flowers

I'm still playing with watercolors after taking the
fabulous Watercolor for Cardmakers Online Class!
To create the background,
I used watercolor paper and Distress inks, including Shabby 

Shutters, Peeled Paint, Dusty Concord, Victorian Velvet and 

Picked Raspberry.  I liberally sprayed 

the paper with water so the colors would mix slightly and the ink

 would move around.  After drying, it was then spritzed with water 

and a paper towel was used to "lift" the wet ink.  

The panel is popped up on a watercolor paper card base.

The flowers and sentiment were embossed in white on vellum, and cut 

along the top, before being attached to the background panel.

I had another card using this fabulous set "on the go" so that I could
post it today - but have you ever had a card that seemed
determined not to be made?  I smudged, spilled, cut wonky angles,
snipped wrong bits, and smudged again!  I finally had to
concede defeat! :)

Now take a look at the full Sunshine & Flowers with all the details below:

  * Stamp set measures 4" x 6".

* Set includes 8 images and 3 sentiments.

* The large flower image is approximately 2 1/2" x 3 3/4".

* Designed by Diane Zechman.

* Stamp set priced at $15.

The challenge this week is Make It Colorful - use at least 5 

colors on your card.  The first cards in the hop were 

created for your inspiration by the design team - then add 

your own colorful card using the linky took below.

Just a few guidelines as you play:

- You don't have to use a Sweet 'n Sassy image to enter, 

although it's great to see it when you do!
