Looking for an easier way to print the sketches?

If you've been wishing that we'd post the sketches in a way that is easier for you to print, you're in luck!

I posted all the sketches as a PDF file in our forum! I created PDF's of each month's sketches all the way back to when we started Sassy! I'll be posting a PDF at the end of every month. The December PDF was posted today.

You will need to create an account so you can view/print the sketches as a PDF. It's free to join and your account will give you access to our forum and gallery! You'll also need Acrobat Reader but it's a free download if you don't already have it.

If you join the forum, please take a moment to introduce yourself....We'd love to get to know you!
