3D Sweetheart
The layout for my card is from this week's Mercy's Tuesday Sketch Challenge. I look forward to Tuesdays and her sketches! The papers are Papertrey Ink's Berry Sorbet Bitty Dot Basics and Solids. The white panel is edged with a MS border punch. I had a piece of silk ribbon that matched perfectly. Just love how bows turn out with silk ribbon!
Have a great day!
Enjoy!

Tree of Love
Click on Photo to Enlarge
In looking at the print, I knew that I would use Basic Grey Bittersweet papers as the combination matched the print perfectly. I wanted to use the MFT set, Grow Love Plant a Tree, as it has been sitting in my "new but never used" stack. There is a MFT Wednesday Stamp Club challenge this week, and decided to go with the sketch for my layout. Not an easy feat with the star! We had the option to change out the star for another shape but I just kept staring at the layout until my mind found a balance point.
I printed the layout full size (5x5 approx.) and cut out the star and traced around it for the star on my card. The edges were sponged with brown ink. The background circle is cut using a Coluzzle template and the scalloped circle using a Spellbinders scalloped circle. I was going to get the sewing machine out but decided to hand draw the dot/dash motif instead. Gives it a little whimsy! The final touches were MFT Glittered Garnishes and BG half pearls.
Have a Great Weekend!
Enjoy!

Let's Hang Out
I am a huge fan of Melanie Muenchinger and have several of her stamp sets. She is celebrating two years of illustrating and blogging this week. Did you know that she has released 25 stamp sets? To celebrate, she did a blog hop with 25 stamper/bloggers using each of her stamp sets. She invited everyone to join in the celebration by completing a card/project and adding a link to her post. I decided to join in the fun!!
I stamped Inspiration Mosaic on a piece of Cosmo Cricket "The Boyfriend" paper. Using Melanie's technique I shaded different squares of the Mosaic with Copics (B00, E31,G40). On to the "Little Tees" set for the T-shirt and the Sentiment. The t-shirt is stamped and colored with Copics (YR00 and YR01) on GinaK's Pure Luxury Ivory Cardstock. Ribbon and Buttons complete the look.
Have a great week!
Enjoy!
