Happiness

I was able to get some time in my stamping room this weekend to catch up on some challenges. I always try to join in on the There She Goes challenge posted on thier blog on Monday mornings. This week the challenge is to use a sentiment as the image (TSG168 Get Sentimental).

The sentiment part of my card was an easy choice. I love the sentiments from There She Goes Flowers of Happiness. The flowers from this set are awesome too, making this stamp set a favorite of mine.

I just picked up a few new 6x6 paper pads from MME at a local craft store and was anxious to use them. I took the layout from the Sweet Stop sketches, shown here, for inspiration.

For the flower, I used the die from TSG Worlds Best and crumpled it around a button. I love how it looks against the background papers and ribbon.

Thanks for stopping by today!!

Here is a card I made for the Sweet Stop sketch challenge this week. I inked up this image from There She Goes (Wonderful Winter Wishes), which is so adorable. My one year old had her first real winter in the snow this year and really enjoyed playing in it. This reminded me of her!!

I colored the image with copics and sponged some light tan around the edges. This smaller image worked perfect for the sketch. The sentiment; however, was not as cooperative! (but I just love it!) I embossed the background pink with swirls to match this pink heart dsp. There is a pink grosgrain ribbon with a pink gingham layered over it. Underneath the ribbon is a scallop border to match the sketch. Three brads along the image were the final parts of the sketch and of my card!
TFL and have a great day!
