Anna from Frozen Sassy January Release

It's release day at Sassy Studio Designs. And I’m a guest designer for them.
My card uses Braid Heart and I printed her out onto Cryogen cardstock so I could color her in with Copic markers. Then I fussy cut her out and started arranging my cardstock and some special details. The die cut has no manufacturer because it was a prototype from a die company. Isn't it lovely? I think so. I did ink the inside of the die with distress ink after I embossed it.


The white background is a frame and I wanted to make a frame within the frame. Here's what I did, I took Clearly Besotted Dandelion Dreams stamp set and used all the sizes to stamp around the outside of the white cardstock with Versa Mark ink. Then I heat embossed the stamps with white embossing powder. Then I mixed together Stardust powdered chalk with paint, both by Stamp N Plus and painted over the entire white and orange cardstock. 


Here she is close up. I'm not the best coloring artist but I'm trying my best to not be embarrassed of what I color/create with the Copic markers. They say practice, practice, and practice is how you get good at them. 


I also wanted to tell you about my Sassy Studio Designs Pinterest board where I keep adding more and more cards that I find with Sassy images. Check it out.
Thanks for looking.

Make A Wish w Elsa

Sassy Studio Designs is sponsoring a movie theme challenge at


I printed Elsa on Cryogen cardstock and colored her in with Copic Markers. Then I die cut her out with a Spellbinders die cut and while the image was still in the die I inked the inside with Ranger's distress ink. I combined Stardust powdered chalk and paint by Stamp N Plus together and used the mixture medium with a paint brush to paint in the cape. The background of the card base is a polka dot stencil by Heidi Swapp that I inked with distress ink and an ink blender tool. The card base is by Recollections and the border is by Creative Memories. The sentiment is a tag that I cut out with my Cricut. The sentiment stamp is by Clearly Besotted with Hero Arts charcoal ink.
