True love lasts forever

Hello. For world card making day, I decided to join the sketch challenge over at Freshly Made Sketches.  I do have some holiday cards in the works but wanted to share new stamp instead.



The leaf and sentiment stamps are from Unity.  I used eucalyptus and juniper ink from Simon Says Stamp on the leaf.  I found the gingham and a matching cardstock in my stash. The blanket stitch square die is from Pink Fresh Studio.

Thanks for stopping by.

It's your day, Celebrate!

Hello.  I found some time today to play in this week's Freshly Made Sketch.  


I used the Beyond Measure pink fresh studio stamp, stencil and die to make this. I did cut it down to fit the sketch. The sentiment is from Waffle flower sweet birthday sentiment stamps. Added some self-adhesive black pearls from Hero Arts to the center of the flowers and smaller ones around the flower spray.  The blanket stitch cover die is also from Pink fresh studio, but the circle one is from Craft addiction UK.

Thanks for stopping by.

Happiest of birthdays - SSC395

Hello and welcome back to another challenge over at Sunday Stamps.  We have another sketch challenge for you today.


The background is an embossing folder from Stampin Up!  I paired it with the eucalyptus die cuts and a birthday sentiment form The Stamp Market.  I used a length of sticky back cork ribbon for the strip. It's super fragile too.  Self-adhesive pearls complete the card. 


Thanks for stopping by.

Sending a little note

Hello. I'm playing in a few challenges today with this card.


I started out with the sketch over at Freshly Made sketches and went from there.

The sentiment is from The Stamp Market. The stencil is from Echo Park, and I used Simon Says Stamp saturated inks on the majority of the leaves.  The lighter gold ink is from Pink Fresh Studio.  The twine is a little bit high, but still looks pretty good.  Added a bow for whimsy.  The card panel is popped up using foam tape.

Thanks for stopping by.
