Freshly Made Sketches #50

Hello my friends,

I am looking forward to the long weekend!  YAY!  I have a card for this week's
Freshly Made Sketches #50. 

My card:

 

I used La Creme Matstack for my layers and cut out the dress from a template I had.  I cut out 2 pleats using Laura Ashley Burgundy Vellum, and added a ribbon around the waist. I wanted to keep the dress simple, but elegant.  The sentiment is from SU Elementary Elegance and was stamped with SU Rich Razzleberry ink onto a creme color paper.  I used the 1 3/4 and the 1 1/2 circle punch for the sentiment. 

Thanks so much for looking,

IBSIC #23

Hello my friends,

I'm back with a project for this week's Inspired by Stamping Inspiration Challenge #23,  This week, it's all about homemade and using Sage, Pink & Cream, so I decided to make something homemade!

My project:

I've had this baby shoe template for awhile. so I decided to make some baby girl shoes.  They are fast and easy to assemble.  I  used some pink polka-dots paper and added a pretty sage color bow.  I also added a pearl on the side of the shoe.  You can fill these up with candy, and decorate your table for a baby shower!  My daughter lent me her doll, and said that it would look nice next to the shoes!

Freshly Made Sketch #49

Hello my friends,

I was able to create a card for this week's Freshly Made Sketch #49 challenge much earlier than usual! When I saw the sketch, different ideas were running through my head, until I decided on the theme: birthday.

My card:

I started out with SU Very Vanilla cardstock and used BoBunny Sweet Tooth polka-dots paper.  I think this paper screams ice cream! - what do you think?  I used Martha Stewart Drippy Goo Edge Punch for the brown and pink glitter paper, and taped the glitter brown on pink paper and glitter pink on brown paper.  I punched out 5 circles using the 3/4 circle punch.  I then adhered Wilton's Lollipop Sticks to create the yummy cake pops!  For the sentiment, I used Big Wishes by Inspired by Stamping, heat embossed the image with SU Melon Mambo Stampin Emboss Powder.  To add some color, I added some pretty aqua color ribbon, punched 2 small hot pink circles and added some bling!  I then decided to add some hot pink scalloped paper on the bottom as well!
