Better Late then Never?!

I wanted to try a Challenge this morning. So I found this Sketch from the Paper Players - and just went with it! It looked like an easy, quick sketch. So I started with some scraps I had on my desk, but that didn't work out. So a couple hours later (with a few distractions in between), I finished this card. (Maybe not so easy?!)

Here's a little closer look of the medallion-thingy! I embossed one of the Delicate Doilies stamps on Pumpkin Pie cardstock and punched it out with the 1 3/8" circle. That's layered on the 1 3/4" circle in Peach Parfait - and that's layered onto the 2" circle (Big Shot die), and that's on the 2 3/8" scallop circle.


And the saying is from the Mini Catalog set, Happy Greetings. - I just love that set!

Well, here's the sketch I used to make my card. But when I finished everything and went back to the sketch Challenge - I saw that the linky was closed. So I participated, but it isn't linked back to their Challenge. Oh well, it was fun to create anyway! But you can still see the other creations with this sketch over on their site!


Thanks for stopping by,

Flirtatious Perfect Details!

I decided to play along with the Stamping 411 Sketch Challenge today! I was inspired by a project I saw on Stampin' Up!'s preview of the new products to use the Flirtatious papers. And, of course, it coordinates with the Delicate Doilies set so I used that too!

And here's the Sketch I used!

The largest doily is cut from the new Flirtatious Specialty Papers - they are awesome with perfect details! (Maybe that's what inspired me to used the Perfect Details Texturz Plate on the Pumpkin layer!) On top of that is a Mambo stamped Delicate Doilies stamp, punched with the 1 3/4" Scallop Circle. Next is a Triple Layer Blossom Bouquet punch, and then a couple Boho Blossom punched flowers. And, of course, a Rhinestone Jewel!!

Here's an even closer-up! I added a Jewelry Tag with a saying from the new Pennant Parade set. I stamped it in White Craft Ink and then Clear embossed it.


Hope you have a great Sunday!
