Celebrating 600 - Fabulous Freebie Saturday and Challenge

Yes, that's right, it's FFS!  Today, in honor of reaching 600 members on Paper Craft Planet (albeit a bit belatedly) we have a special freebie for you over there.  We want to thank all of you - our Sassy fans - for being so wonderful!  We couldn't do any of this without you!

So to celebrate, we have a brand new, never before seen image for you!   She will be available on PCP for 48 hours only.  This woman is colorful and efficient and punctual.  Well, she's been Sassified!  And she wishes that the odds are ever in your favor when you play along in our E.F.F.I.E Trinket challenge!  The Hunger Games chaperone from District 12 is waiting to be the center piece of your creations!

To play along for your chance to win TWO images from the upcoming May new release simply use Effie to make a project containing these elements:

E is for Embossing

F is for Flowers

F is for Full of Color

I is for Ink

E is for Embellishments

Your creation must use the Effie image and all five elements listed above to be eligible for the prize.  The cool thing about this prize?  You'll get the images before anyone else!  Release day is May 19th, but these digis will be in your crafty little hands before then!  How fabulous is that?  You have until Wednesday, May 9th at 9am EDT to link your work here.

And of course the Sassy Studio Designs design team gals have some inspiration for you:

Debbie

Christy

Celebrating 500 - A Sassy Steampunk Freebie and Progressive Challenge

As many of you know, we recently reached 500 members on our Sassy Studio Designs Paper Craft Planet group! This is no small feat seeing as we just celebrated reaching 400 members in September! We love our Sassy fans, and we want to share this wonderful occasion with you again! Last month's Sassy Masquerade was incredible, but this time we've mixed things up a little, and we're going to make you work for those fabulous images of Lindsay's! Welcome to the Sassy Steampunk Progressive Relay Challenge! Here is how it works:

Today we have a fabulous freebie image for you! Her name is Steampunk Josephine! She is the 1st in a series of FOUR brand new, never before seen Sassy Studio Designs steampunk images! And she is yours, free! In order to get your crafty little hands on images 2, 3, and 4, though, well, you have to play along in our progressive challenge! If you've never participated in a progressive relay it is basically a series of challenges where you must complete one challenge to earn the freebie to play along in the next challenge and so on and so on.

Your first challenge: Create a project with Steampunk Josephine using METAL EMBELLISHMENTS. You will have two days to complete the challenge. Enter your creation using the InLinks tool below by Monday, October 17th at 8pm PDT and you will earn image #2. This image will be e-mailed to you so be sure to enter the address you want it sent to when you post your link. In order to earn image #3, you will have to participate in a second challenge. And then a third challenge to claim image #4, the final image. Besides earning the awesome freebies along the way, there will be a random winner drawn from each challenge's entrants for two SSD images of choice! AND for those who make it to the last challenge.... At the end there will be a random drawing for one lucky winner who will receive 4 images from the upcoming November release a week before they hit the Sassy Studio Designs store! But wait, there's more! That winner will also be given the opportunity to be our guest new release designer and have a creation they make using one of those November images featured on the Sassy Studio Designs blog on release day! Pretty cool, huh?

Not in the crafting mood. Well, you can still win by commenting on the challenges! We will be drawing two random winners for a SSD image of choice just for leaving us some love! And don't forget - this is all about celebrating Paper Craft Planet and our fantastic 500 so pop over there for trivia, more prizes and chats with the design team! And at the end of all this week long fun, we will have a special surprise for you on Paper Craft Planet on Saturday!

Excited yet? We are! So without further ado we present to you Steampunk Josephine and some inspiration from our fabulous design team! Remember to click on the image to get the full resolution copy before saving it!

Sassy Studio Designs goes to the Masquerade Ball

Remember when we told you that one day, when we reached 400 members on Paper Craft Planet, we would throw you a fabulous party? Well, we have not only met, but exceeded that goal and TODAY is that day! Welcome to the Sassy 400th Member Masquerade Ball! We have ALL sorts of fun in store for you today, both here and on PCP! On behalf of Lindsay and her entire design team, I would like to thank each and everyone of you for your support of Sassy Studio Designs! Without you, this would be no fun at all!

What do we have in store for you today, you ask? You are going to be AMAZED at the party we have planned! First up is a blog hop! This isn't any ordinary blog hop, though.... This is a hop where you will collect not one, not two, not three, but SEVEN FREE masquerade themed images plus some matching sentiments! Now, be sure to leave a comment on each blog as you go, including the SSD blog, because there will be a random winner chosen from among the comments on each blog. The author of the selected comment will receive a special prize - an unreleased image from our forthcoming Halloween collection! You will get it before anyone else has even seen a sneak peek of it! How cool is that?! Here is the hop order:

Sassy Studio Designs
Rebecca
Kathy
Julie
Sara
Regan
Lindsay
Laura (September GDT)

After you finish the hop, you'll then want to head over to Paper Craft Planet for moreFREEBIES, trivia questions with a chance to win an image of your choice, and of course some chit chat with each other and the design team.

We'll also be hosting three chat sessions on our party blog so we hope you'll stop by during one of those hour long sessions to say "hi" to the design team. We'll be on the party blog at 8am, 3pm, and 10pm (all EDT). Simply click the banner in the side bar to the right to join in!

BUT WAIT! There's more! As if that wasn't enough, we have a CHALLENGE for you as well! What do envision when you think of a masquerade? People in elegant costumes no doubt, but also of those elaborate masks covered in jewels, sequins, and feathers! And that is exactly what we want to see from you! Use any of the 7 new masked images to create a project embellished with bling or sequins or feathers or any combination of the three and link it below using the InLinz tool. You will have a week to play along. The winner will be chosen by design team vote and... wait for it.... will receive as a prize THE ENTIRE new Halloween collection slated for release in mid-September. And you will get them a week before anyone else! Plus you will be given the opportunity to make a project with one of those images to be featured on the SSD blog on release day, September 17th! The winner will be announced on Saturday, September 10th.

So, is your head spinning with all the fun, fabulous things we have planned for you today?!?! I hope you are as excited as we are about this, and we hope you love the images as much as we do!

The images will be available until Sunday evening, September 4th at 11:59pm (PDT). After that, in case you missed them, they will be added to the Sassy Studio Designs shop and available for purchase. Well, what are you waiting for, hike up the skirt on that ball gown and get hopping!!!
