We Need to Talk

Can you believe that June is half over? That means it's time for the next Facebook Monthly Challenge in the Sassy Studio Designs Group.  If you haven't joined, what are you waiting for?  This month's challenge is a little different.  This time around it's "5 for $5". There are 5 images from the past that have been bundled together.  They are only $1 each!  The Sassy Studio Designs Facebook DT members  have divided the images to showcase each of them.  I chose the "Cell Phone Cindy" image.  And decided to make a step card.

It was fun working with one of Lindsay's original images.  This would be a great time to pick up some of her original images before they are retired again.  And they're only $1 each for the bundle of 5.  How can you beat that?  After you comment, head over to the Sassy Studio Designs Facebook Group (join if you haven't already), get the images and join in the fun.

Bride Journal

June is here. So I've moved over as a SSD DT member to the Flashback Friday team at Sassy Studio Designs. This week we have the great image "Bella Bride" as inspiration.  It's available in the SSD Store at a discount price this week.  I decided to make something other than a card this time around.
I made a what I'd call a "Bride's Journal".
