Thank You...SSD74 56

Hi there! Here today to share my final card as a Guest Designer for Skipping Stones Design. Many thanks to Heather, the entire Skipping Stones DT and Guests for such a warm welcome and wonderful time :) Every Tuesday, Skipping Stones Design hosts a sketch challenge and all are encouraged to join along in the fun!

Here's my take:

I started with pretty patterned paper from the Pink Paislee Butterfly Garden Collection. This collection is full of so many beautiful patterns that are fun to combine and layer. After piecing all the layers together, I topped it off with a gorgeous Prima flower.

I stamped the Thank you sentiment from Skipping Stones Design Heartsong then using a tag die template from Ribbon Tags to cut/emboss the image.

Happy Tuesday! Hope you are having a great week so far :) Here today to share a card I made for this week's Skipping Stones Design sketch challenge. You may recall, I am Guest Designing for Skipping Stones Design for the month of April :) All are encouraged to join along in the fun!

Here's my interpretation:

I stamped a pretty lacy bra image from Skipping Stones Design Bras Volume #1 then sponged a slight border adding a bit of color while creating a soft frame. Both sentiments are from the same stamp set which is full of so many fun images! As much as I hate to admit it, I purchased this set waaaay back in October 2010 when Heather, Owner of Skipping Stones Design was graciously hosting a fund raiser for Breast Cancer Awareness. Check out this awesome sketch:

I think the lacy detail in the bra is oh so beautiful! Not only would the images from this stamp set be perfect for any special woman in your life but for that special man as well ;)

Hi there! Welcome to the Skipping Stones Design Blog Hop to celebrate the release of Uplifting! If you've just happened upon my blog today, make sure to start from the beginning at Skipping Stones Design. You should have arrived here from Gladys Chia's blog.

Combined with the blog hop today, it's also Skipping Stones Sketch Tuesday which means we're showcasing another great creation from our Guest Sketch Artist this month, Laurie Schmidlin. We'd love for you to play along with the sketch and link your card at the Skipping Stones Blog. A free stamp set is up for grabs to one lucky winner that joins the sketch challenge!

For my focal point, I stamped one of the lovely sentiments from Uplifting then using a Standard Circles LG die template to cut/emboss the image.

Using a sweet tag cut from Papertrey's Tiny Tags die, I stamped a little butterfly and sentiment from Uplifting then attached to the bow using a teeny safety pin and topped it off with a Prima rose.

I'm lovin' the beautiful Pink Paislee Butterfly Garden Collection and with all the layers in this week's Skipping Stones Sketch Tuesday, the paper worked wonderfully well paired with the images from the Uplifting set.

To continue on with the Hop, please be sure to see what Amy Tsuruta has created! Thanks for looking ~ Be Sweet :)

Happy Tuesday! I have some Juicy news to share with you all today! I am very happy and honored to share with you that Heather Engebretson, Owner of Skipping Stones Design has invited me to join her and her talented DT for the month of April as a Guest Designer!

I stamped the cherry image from Friendly Fruit and stitched on a few felt leaves. Using a Standard Circles LG die template to cut/emboss the image then layered it on top of a sweet doily made using a die from the PTI Doily Details Collection. ALL this sweetness was layered on top of some fun paper from the Melissa Frances Kitschy Kitchen Collection.
