Cyber Monday Inspiration

Happy Cyber Monday!

Whew, the holiday week is over and the 
house is quite once again. 

It's these moments that you think, 
Man, that week went by fast! 
Before I know it... and probably
before I am ready, Christmas will be 
here. Yikes! 


Anyway, I have lots of great inspiration for you 
today from several of our Sweet Tooth Girls
AND from a special guest designer! 

This week caught up with me 
and I have a few projects from 
the holiday week I haven't shared with 
you. So get ready for lots of inspiration!


First up, is Leigh Ann! 

She inked up Scootin' By!


I *love* this card. It's a great use of the set... 
check out all the little parts and pieces she 
used... 


I really like sets where you use 
*lots* of the stamps... talk about 
gettin' bang for your buck! HUH!

Next up is the ever talented 


Check out this box she created using 
the alpha set!


WOW! I love the colors and how easy 
it would be to create a matching card
or tag... the possibilities are endless. 

You could even create a little word search
for Christmas or Love... or anything! How 
inventive and interactive! She's a genius! 


Sweet Alpha Doodles are 
so much fun! 


Actually, my favorite lady
Savannah also used 
the alpha set to create 
a really cute envelope for 
the holidays! 


And the tree is from Tree Traditions!!



Speaking of Tree Traditions... 

Our good friend and special 
guest designer... 


Created the *cutest* mini album 
using the Tree Traditions set. 
It's bright and colorful... 
and maybe my favorite 
Christmas project so far this year!

Check it out! 


How colorful and fun is this? 


She's really amazing with all things 
altered... and it makes for great gifts! 

Are you ready for the holiday's this year? 

I'm doing my best to get ready! 

If you can take a moment and 
say hello to our designers! They 
are the genius behind the sweetness! 

Also, before I forget...

Thanksgiving Football!




A quick little card inspiration for you

AMA Musical Monday (hangover)

Just a small post 
today inspired by some 
'Old School Rock' 



Did anyone watch the AMA's last night? 
Ugh, sometimes I don't know why I 
watch those shows ... the people I would 
care to win awards are either not nominated
or don't win. It's truly a high school popularity 
contest.... Like in my opinion, Adele should 
have received every award she 
was nominated for... I mean, her cd is *the* 
best that we've heard in sometime. 
And she's pure genius in concert! 

Side Note: I don't think I 
could even tell you a Taylor Swift song! 

Anyway, enough of my bitter rant about 
the AMA's... 

Check out Geny's card using

Old School Rock



It's really fun!


She even used a couple stamps 
from the 'Sweet Tooth' set



Thanks for dropping by today!

What did you think of the AMA's? 
or Were you the smart one and didn't 
tune in! lol 

Happy Monday all!!

Hugs, 
N.

Holiday Greetings!!

Hello Fellow Friends!

Just a short little post full 
of amazing inspiration. 



The holidays are coming up 
around the corner and wait till you 
see the cards that the girls 
have come up with! 


was completely GENIUS! 
She grabbed the 'Sweet Alpha
Doodles' set... 


and look what she came up with!


Ahhh-mazing! 


Make sure to head over to her blog and 
tell her what a *great* idea this is. 
(I'm totally stealing this idea for a card class!) 


Wait till you see Lindsay's masterpiece! 


She used the Gnomies set




How cute is that Gnomie? 

And so well colored! 


Make sure to go over and give her some 
love on her blog... she's pretty amazing! 


Actually, my whole design team is! 

Hope everyone has a relaxing 
Sunday... gearing up for 
the holiday craziness! 


If you have a moment... 
make sure to check out


Big Hugs,

Sports Fever, or maybe...

Let's do the Friday dance... 
do the Friday dance
Friday dance! 

Happy Friday... 



Boy, do I have something extra cute to share with you 
today... you know our amazing designer 



Well, she used the Sports Fever set to make 
a layout and a really cute hair pin. 




You see Savannah isn't much of a sports person.
Actually, not a sports person at. all. 

But, she decided to put on some track pants
find herself a jersey... and give it a go... 



She actually looks like she knows something
here... like maybe she's tricking us... 

But wait.. 


Awww, yes... the age ol' granny shot. 

(great form, if I might add!) 

Anyway, she decided to do a layout telling 
the truth about sports (for her) 

Ready to see... it's brilliant!


She also incorporated the set 
'Sweet Alpha Doodles' 
which is actually really versatile and fun! 

She also whipped up a little clip 
with the set... 


She's so talented... that ball looks real! 

I don't care what she says... I think she's 
fooling us with 'not liking sports' ! 

She's a closet fan. I just know it. 
And I think she's a closet 
Chargers fan. :) 

Ok, maybe not. 

But, we need all the support we 
can get right about now. 

(ugh, start winning Chargers!!) 


On another note... 

I am sharing the blog with Savannah today.. 
I have something really cute to share with you! 

In honor of Twilight and showing 
that our stamp sets are super 
versatile... I decided to make a little 
Twilight card. 



For all you fans out there... 

I loved the Twilight series... years ago. 
I like to think, before they became such 
a big smashing success. 

Actually, I have a bit of a connection 
to it all. My family is *very* deeply 
rooted in the Pacific North West. 
And all of my family (no, really... ALL) 
live in a little town called Port Angeles. 

Sound familiar?!

For my high school years I spent 
every summer working at the local pool 
living with my Grandparents... and camping... 
yep, went to Forks quite a bit.
(yeah, they do a horrible job portraying 
the area in the movies...lol) 


Historical Side Note:

My great great Grandfather 
surveyed most of the Olympic 
National Park and named 
a mountain in honor of his 
pioneer wife. We're pretty 
rich in history in the area... I don't 
mean to bore you ... lol..
 But, if you're interested... 


is a really great picture of 
Carrie Glacier with the 
accompanying sign. 

I grew up listening to 
stories of my family and 
I know that while my Grandfather
(whom sadly is suffering with the 
last stages of Alzheimer's) 
couldn't tell you a story today. 
He did an amazing job sharing as 
much as he could, for as long as he 
could, so that we could be proud and share 
it ourselves. 

ANYWAY! 

As you can see, those books were an escape 
into a time and place that I hold very dear. 
A fictional story that was set in a very 
real place, for me. 

The movies on the other hand... are a horse 
of another color... and it's probably b/c I'm 
from where the books take place ... but, 
I don't *love* the movies. 

But, when I was brainstorming ways 
to use holiday sets for things other than 
holidays... it hit me.... Vampire 
Melvin was just perfect for Edward... and 
regular ol' Vernie would make the 
perfect Bella! 


There is Melvin... all shimmery! 


So, here is my card... 

For all the Twi-hards and 
for giving 15 minutes of fame
to the little town and area that 
is *very* dear to me. 


The inside... 


We're team Edward around here! 
Although, Edward in the books was far 
more attractive (both in personality and 
in looks) then the movies... in my opinion! 

I hope you have a great weekend and 
you take a moment (after this epic post) lol
to check out our website and facebook. 

Thanksgiving Owl-fits are on sale for $6 through
Thanksgiving ... or until we run out! 

Big Hugs, 
N.

Thanks TO YOU!

It's that time again. 



Time to clean out the freezer and 
fridge... making room for the festivities of 
the season! 

Being Thankful for all we have! 

I'm so thankful for all of you... Sweet 
Stamp Shops fans! 

In just 4 months we're growing fast
and it's all thanks to you! 

I have a special card to share with you... 

A Thanksgiving card from me to you!



and the little card pulls out to read


Happy Thanksgiving... to you and yours! 

I love this Thanksgiving set... 



You can really use it for so much more 
than just Thanksgiving!


The pie is really fun to use! 

And, I'm thinking that Melvin could 
also be used for St. Patricks Day! 

I have several ideas floating in my head! 


Thanksgiving is right around the corner 
and as my thanks to all of you... from 
now until Thanksgiving... 

Grab this set for 
$6

That's right! 
(shhh, that's *way* under wholesale!)

Sweet Alpha Doodles!

Hello All! 

Just a quick little post 
for you today! 




Have you had a chance to 
check out our 'Sweet Alpha 
Doodles' set... it's my handwriting
and lots of great 'extras'!! 


It's quirky and whimsical and 
just really fun to play with! 


Check out the card Geny 
made with it!


What an easy and fun birthday card! 
You could use this idea for any 
age! And I bet you could make 
a set of cards that could be customizable 
for a gift. You know, leave the number space
blank and give them a bunch of 
loose numbers to make the birthday cards
that they want to. 

Yeah, that's actually a brilliant idea. 
I just might try it! 

I'm off to make a couple videos today... 
it's been *way* too long. Period. 

Happy Crafting! 

Also, don't forget for a limited time 
'Watchin TV' is only $10! Use coupon 
 code: WT10

A 'Furry' Monday!



Hi everyone!

It's Julie Ranae here with you today and I am so glad to be able to share
just a little somethin' I played around with this past weekend.

I have made it no secret on my personal blog 
that I don't do nearly as
much coloring as I would like to...and then when I see 
the beautiful work
that our designers here at Sweet Stamp Shop do, 
I am encouraged that
I am never too old to give it a go : )

Of course, these 'Furry Friends Forever' make it so easy....


I just love this little raccoon and think 
this would make such
an adorable card for one of my grandsons.


Hey!  While I'm here, I want to make sure you know 
about a 
FaBuLoUs offer 
on one of our other sets...


For a limited time, you can get this fun set
for just $10!!!
Just use the code: WT10
when you checkout.

Here's a little something that I've shared before
using this set....


When you pop over to the shop to order, you will also
see several other wonderful ideas using this set
from our Sweet Tooth Girls.

Don't forget, it's a limited time offer!

Great to share with you today!
Go out and make it a great one!
