hello! welcome to monday!

we want to thank you for making our day. some of you have sent some cuuuuute cards thanking us for prizes or your special warehouse orders. we love getting these little gems and when we get a card or a heartfelt email, we really get a boost of spirits.  we've also seen some of the cuuute sassafras cards you've been creating to make someone else's day.

so here is some inspiration. your challenge for the week is to make a card and make someone's day. do it!!

lexi made us this card to thank us for her box of prizes. we went bananas when we saw it. 

emily sent us this cute card a day after picking up her warehouse sale box order. man she's fast!

take a look at this sweet trio of cards by jenny...

these mini congratulations cards were made by carrie for the pink ninja leaders in honor of 100 followers on their blog. 

sassafras makes it soooo easy. so get out your sass stash. make a card. and go ahead... make someone's day. 

we want to see what you've dreamed up. . . so show us your stuff while you're at it. 

thank you. xoxoxo.

back to school.

HELLO FRIENDS!!!!!!!

our end of summer vacation ended up being a tad bit longer than we expected...  but we missed you while we were away!! now that school has started, we are back in action and  aiming for perfect blog attendance! and since we're a year older and wiser too, we are going to try some new things to make the grade... so stay tuned for new ideas, tutorials, and, of course, contests galore. 

tomorrow (11 september) and saturday (12 september) sassafras will be taking a field trip to the Original Scrapbook USA Expo. we are excited to see what's in store for us. if you live in town or just happen to be visiting this weekend, gather up all the paper crafters you know and go to the show!! the show is open tomorrow from 9:00 am for you early birds until midnight for the night owls; saturday the hours are 10:00 am until 6:00 pm. we have put together some sweet kits at an even sweeter price and will also have tons of our embellishments. we want to meet you so come stop by!!

today we want to show off a page by jingjing nickel. she left a comment with a link to her blog; we were not disappointed with what we found!! jingjing loves monstrosity... so much so she composed a little sonnet! we love that she had to break out a little shakespeare style to share her true feelings! visit her blog to read her expression of love. here is her page.
