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.

Happy Birthday

Hello. I'm playing in The Paper Players #PP800 sketch today.  What a huge milestone!  


The designer paper for this comes from Moda Scrap. I used the square blanket die from Pink Fresh Studio to cut the flower dsp out.  The stripes within the pack worked well for the strip called out in the sketch.  The sentiment is from My Favorite Things.

The dragonfly is cut out using the matte black cardstock from Tim Holtz. I love how rich and deep that black is.  The blue cardstock behind the white panel is from Altenew.

Thanks for stopping by.  Below is the sketch.
