Sweet Sunday Sketch 300

Today's post is bitter sweet as it's our last Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge - we're finishing off with 300!  I remember how excited I was when Karen asked me join her team back in January 2011 and how crazy my husband thought I was.

For this weeks card I used one of Stamping Bella's new images Chicks Who Couldn't Even because it fits how I feel - I Just Can't... Believe I was part of such a fabulous talented team AND I Just Can't wrap by head around the fact that this is the last challenge

The image is stamped with memento tuxedo black ink onto bella's bestest paper and coloured with pencils blended with mineral spirits.

I want to thank all the amazing talented Sweet Sunday Stampers past and present for always inspiring me and Karen thank you so much for letting me be a part of this amazing team.  Please stop by the Sweet Sunday Stampers blogs to see their creations.

JOY for a Sweet Sunday

Happy Sunday!  It's time for another Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge (SSSC296).  I took a few liberties with the sketch....

For my card I used Stamping Bella's Tiny Townie Jenny Feels Joyful stamp and Cut It Out.

The image is stamped on bella's bestest white card stock and coloured with copics.  I added some shading with pencils blended with mineral spirits.  I then cut out the image with the "cut it out".   I then used the "cut it out" on foam to pop the image up.  The DP is MME's Be Merry.

Sweet Sunday Sketch 290

Happy Thanksgiving weekend to all the Canadian stampers!  It's time for another Sweet Sunday Sketch challenge.  I didn't make a Thanksgiving card; instead I made a Christmas card

I stamped Stamping Bella's Merry Everything stamp onto bella's bestest white card stock and coloured the image with copics.  I then fussy cut the image out mounted it on black card stock and fussy cut that as well.  I embossed on piece of card stock with a snowflakes embossing folder

I continued the layout on the inside, although I didn't emboss the one piece of card stock

Sweet Sunday Sketch 271

Happy Sunday I hope everyone is having a fabulous weekend!

For my card today I "tweaked" the sketch a bit to work with the sentiment I wanted to use.  My niece is graduating from High School and I thought the sentiment was perfect.  The sentiment is from Impression Obsessions

I wanted to use fun girly paper but I decided I should incorporate some of the school colours (blue and white).  The DP is lawn fawns pint size beachside.
