I Adore You! Sketch Saturday #547

January 18, 2019



Good Morning Everyone...
Welcome to another week at Sketch Saturday!
We have an amazing new sponsor joining us this week.


The super prize offered this week is 
a $10 GC to use towards digital images only.

Here is sketch #547:



My card is created on a square card base. (5 X 5)  I found these papers in my Valentine stash and mixed them to create the panels for the sketch.  The white rectangle was embossed with a heart folder.  The Pure Innocence Stamp is from MFT -So Much Love.  I stamped her in Memento Black ink and colored her with Copic Markers.  I paper pieced her dress.  I added Glossy Accents to her shoes and the little heart in her hands.   The heart and arrow are from MFT .  The sentiment is from the same set and heat embossed with white powder.  I love the way this turned out.  It makes me smile!  
 
  I am trying to finish the inside of my cards and make a matching envelope.  That way they are almost ready for the mail.
 
Thank you for stopping by my blog!  Don't forget to visit all the DT blogs for lots of inspiration!  We sure hope you will play along with us!  

HUGS!

Smile SSC196 and PP424

January 13, 2019

It's Sunday and time for new challenges at The Paper Players and Sunday Stamps!

The fabulous SS sketch is by Annette and the beautiful PP color combo is chosen by our hostess,  Anne Marie!  Oh, there are endless possibilities with both of these challenges.  We sure hope you will play along!





My card is created on a white card base.  I sponged Daffodil Delight and Grapefruit Grove inks on a white panel.  I used a sunburst embossing folder to create a huge sunshine.  The white rectangle strip was stenciled using Pool Party ink and a sponge.  I backed the sentiment panel with Pool Party and used the Casual Friday Smile stamp set.   I used Grapefruit Grove to stamp the word smile and black ink for the rest of the sentiment.  I added a few enamel dots to complete the card.  I am sending this to a friend that is battling cancer.  I hope it makes her smile!  It was made with love!

LOVE FMS 370

January 12, 2019

It is chilly here today, so I had time to make a card for the Freshly Made Sketches Challenge. This week's sketch is courtesy of the talented Jen Timko.  I have always loved their challenges and just never find a lot of time to play.  So happy to share my card today!


My card is created on a white card base.  I used a retired MFT Blueprints die set to cut the red scalloped piece and the black and white X's.  I found this paper in my Valentine stash.  The LOVE is cut in white and red using the Cherry Lynn Bohemian Word 
die.  I cut the little candy conversation hearts out of white, red and pink paper using the Cherry Lynn Sweetheart Candy Dies.  Such an easy card to put together!  
 

A big thank you for stopping by my blog today!  

HUGS!
