Sassy Studio Designs
Sassy Studio Designs

Sassy Studio Designs is a fresh new company. We have been designing and selling for 3 years now, and we have been kindly received into the community of digi stampers and crafters. I started designing images shortly after I started stamping, reason being...I didn't hardly like anything else out there I was a young adult woman at the time I was engaged, had no kids, I wanted fun sexy images that I would enjoy using and my friends and hubby would enjoy receiving. I designed images for 2 other digi stamp companies when my wonderful hubby kept trying to get me to go out on my own. So in June 2009 thanks to the few faithful followers I had, Sassy Studio Designs was born!  It has been a wonderful journey starting my own store. We have just grown so much these past months.I still try to keep Lindsay Dyer: keep with my original philosophy and reason for designing stamps, make them fun and keep them sassy...and yes sometimes even sexy!

Offering four (4) Digital Stamps of WINNER's Choice!

The Stamping Chef


The Stamping Chef was born in November 2012, Here’s a little bit about Tamara, the artist/creator of all the wonderful images you will find in The Stamping Chef store.   Drawing is my passion, and my style is fun, cute and doodlish ~I think =D.  I love to see images come to life when they're colored by amazing crafters. Creating digital images can be a tedious process, but I love each and every step of it.

The Stamping Chef offers a anything goes weekly challenge on Wednesday on our Blog, and many weekly and monthly challenges on our The Stamping Chef forum http://thestampingchef.com/Forum/ to play along with for some TSC images to win!

Offering three (3) Digital Stamps of WINNER's Choice!

Doctor-Digi

I have been drawing since a child and studied graphics at College many years ago, I now work as a Medical photographer part time but my love was always drawing. I started cardmaking about 4-yrs ago when I bought my daughter a cardmaking kit which we did together, but I’m afraid I got the bug! My daughter preferred scrapbooking. I then started looking online at other blogs and this then became my passion and I loved sharing my cards with like minded people.
I love stamping and loved finding images, but sometimes I could not find what I wanted so I started to draw myself.
This then has become my second addiction and I have never looked back, I love thinking of new images, and its just fabulous to see others take them and make them into beautiful works of art. Long may it continue!

Offering two (2) Digital Stamps of WINNER's Choice!

Please join us in Welcoming our Guest Designer this week!!

Sandi

I love almost anything that has to do with card making. My passion at the moment has to be my Copic markers and digital images. I started drawing my own images 2 years ago and so far having a ball creating digi stamps. I am administrator on the TTCRD challenge blog and have had several digi and creations published in the magizine.
