SSSC71 - Birthday Contraband

It's time for this week's Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge and don't go into shock but my card for the sketch is not Stampin' Up.  Yes I know contraband but I couldn't resist!  This card is for my daughter's birthday which is in June {fun I thought because of the Crown and Princess title considering I'm the Queen, lol}.  Her dress was stamped and paper pieced and she was colored with Copic markers and I used a Spica Glitter pen for the birthday candles.

Supplies: Pure Innocence MFT, K&Company DSP, Copics, Nestabilities, Prima flower, Gem, Ribbon, Spica Glitter pen, Scallop border punch, Piercer, Pop dots.  Colors: Pink Passion, Pumpkin Pie.

You Scream I Scream We All Scream for Ice Cream

Hello and Happy Wednesday!  Today I have one of the cards that I created for my stamp camp from last week, all four of the projects from my camp were birthday themed.  It always seem as though you can never have enough birthday cards on hand so we did two masculine and two feminine cards. 
This Sweet Scoops stamp set that I used on this card is so fun to work with and I love all the possibilities with this set.  The top Pumpkin Pie ice cream scoop with the cherry on top was pre-stamped and cut out so that it could be popped up after stamping the cone and Melon Mambo scoop.

Supplies: Sweet Scoops, Perfect Details Texturz Plate, Scallop border punch, Ribbon, Pop dots.  Colors: Melon Mambo, Pumpkin Pie, So Saffron.

Enjoy the rest of your week!

SSSC70 - Elements of Style

It's Sunday and time for another Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge!  Karen has got an awesome sketch for all of us to play with this week, I'm lovin the squares down the side on this sketch.  For my card today I used the new stamp set Elements of Style which is from the Summer Mini Catalog.  I stamped the large floral image in black ink on white card stock and decided to highlight three sections of the flowers by punching them out with my square punch and water coloring them and then added some Dazzling Diamonds. 

Supplies: Elements of Style, Ribbon, Dazzling Diamonds, Square punches, Large Oval punch, Scallop Oval punch, Ticket Corner punch, Piercer, Sponge, Pop dots.  Colors: Basic Black, Old Olive, Cameo Coral.
