It's that time of the month again - All That Scraps' CC Designs stamp release time that is!
I'm releasing TWO sets this month - more about those in a minute.

FYI all the new stamps are being released WEDNESDAY APRIL 7 at 10:00pm EST.
I've been making cards with the new stamps - I will be posting them over the next few days :o)
Now - on to Big Words and Handy Additions:
Basically they are two separate sets - but they're meant to work together. You can purchase whichever set you want but there will be a "combo" deal that includes both sets for a lower price (versus buying the sets separately).
Big Words is just that - a set of larger-sized words.
Handy Additions is a set of sentiments/words that work together with the Big Words - so you can stamp the big word then choose another word/sentiment from Handy Additions to finish off the sentiment on your card:
The 'sorry' is from theBig Words set - I stamped that with red ink, and then stamped the 'I'm so' from the Handy Additions set in black in above it.
For this card I used some patterned paper from My Little Shoebox (*shock!* I actually didn't use more of the MME Quite Contrary papers LOL! I almost did - then I stumbled across these papers in my stash - totally forgot I had them - and they were so cute I had to use them).
I stamped this Spring Emma image onto CCD white cardstock then colored her in with Copics.
I trimmed her out (you can check out a video I did on trimming out images HERE <------click!) then added some ribbon and brads and adhered Emma into place and that finished off the front of the card.
On the inside of the card I added more patterned paper, then die cut a piece of white cardstock with one of my rectangle nestabilities dies.
I stamped 'please forgive me' from the Handy Additions set onto it (sidenote - there are prolly more times than I can count when I needed a card like this!! I've had quite a few "insert foot in mouth" moments when I've said/done things I shouldn't have - and if I could have given a card like this along with my apology it would have been SO much nicer I think! Thus the reason why these sentiments were included in these sets!!).
I also cut a scalloped rectangle from the green patterned paper and matted the white before adhering it to the inside of the card.
