Poppies

Hello! It's time for day 3 of the Paper and Such sneak peeks and I have to say that I absolutely LOVE this set!!! It's a must have in my book. I stamped my image on the brick embossed white cardstock (I don't have this embossing folder yet myself or I would have stamped first then embossed) and colored it with my copics. I colored 2 extra poppies and cut them out and popped them up. I weaved my ribbon thru the fench punch and added a bow. I LOVE how this card turned out!!! Make sure you stop by the other DT's blogs. Don't forget to leave comments along the way because there will be a winner picked each day from a random blog for that days set. Winners will be announced on the 10th. Tomorrow is the final sneak peeks, set reveals and a blog hop all in one. The sets will be available for purchase in the Paper and Such store at that time. Thanks for stopping by and I'll see ya back here again tomorrow!

Hello! Nothing says summer to me like watermelon, Love it!! Just got these stamps in the mail and I had to play. The ribbon matches perfectly IRL. I have such a hard time getting good pictures of cards with alot of white. I just love how this card turned out, think I'll have to make a couple more. You can never have to many thank you cards on hand. It was quite simple and no coloring needed. Thanks for stopping by and don't forget to come back tomorrow for a new Sweet Stop sketch tomorrow!

Lovely Cupcake

Hello! Had a little help taking my pictures today, thought I'd share that photo too! This is one of 4 kittens that we rescued recently along with their momma. All five of them are black! Today I have a Yummy cupcake card to share with you. It's a digi stamp from Heart Song Designs. I colored it with my copics and cut it out and raised it up with foam tape. I thought that this might also have made a nice wedding card?? Maybe use some crocheted lace instead of the twill ribbon?  What do you think? Can't wait to hear your thoughts. Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!!
