Sketches are one of my favorite kind of challenges!! For my card today I left the pretty Webster's pages DP do all the work! I used a piece from the new Spring/Yacht/Country pk that you can find in the Paper and Such store!

Sweetest Day

Hello!  I used my brand new Unity & Jillibean Soup Itty Bitty stamp set that I just got from Paper and Such! A new online store that just opened this month, make sure you go check them out. They also carry the adorable Wild Rose Studio stamps, you'll be seeing some cards made with those real soon!
For the dots on my strawberry I used this new stuff I found at M's made by Ranger called Enamel Accents. It came in a 2 pk, 1 white and 1 black. Kinda works like liquid pearls or glossy accents. I suggest practicing first to get the feel of how it comes out of the bottle though cause it works a little differently IMO!

Let's Play Ball!

Hello! Wow a whole week has went by and I haven't posted a thing! It was a rainy and dreary week here, spent most of my crafty time reading. It's time for Sketch with a spin this week at The Sweet Stop. This weeks spin is masculine, perfect time to get started on those Father's Day cards! I used a Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps Cocoa digi for my card. I flipped the sketch so I could use my DP's to kinda look like the American Flag, stars at the top corner, stripes in the bottom. Hope you have a great weekend and thanks for stopping by!
