Stamp with Tammy

Saturday Sketch Challenge #244

Hooray!  It's time for another sketch from the Stamping 411 Operators!! 

And, here's my card:

I started with the Doily Sizzlet--it's cut out of the Twitterpated Designer Paper!  The pink doily wasn't showing up very well on the Blushing Bride card base, so I added a 3 1/2" circle of whisper white behind it.  The white scalloped circle was cut using the Perfect Pennants Die.  Then, I used the 2 3/8" scallop circle punch for the Blushing Bride layer.  And, finally on top is a 2" circle of Whisper White (cut using the Circles #2 Die), stamped with the Delicate Doilies stamp set in Blushing Bride ink!  Whew!!  That was alot of round layers!!

Be sure to hop over to the Stamping 411 blog and see what the other Operators did with this sketch!

Have a GREAT day!!

Saturday Sketch Challenge #243

Hooray!  It's another fun sketch over at the Stamping 411 Blog!! 

Isn't it pretty!  Here's my card:

I went totally "girly" on this one!  Colors are Whisper White and Blushing Bride.  I used the Twitterpated Designer Paper, and stamped on it with Blushing Bride ink!  The stamps are from the Baroque Motif Stamp set--haven't used this one in awhile!  But, I still love it!  The sentiment is from the Elementary Elegance Sale-a-bration set, and is stamped in Early Espresso ink.

You can get all the measurements, as well as see the awesome cards from the other operators on the Stamping 411 blog!

Sketch Frenzy Friday!

Happy Friday!!  I'm excited--my Nacho Average Stampers' group meeting is tonight!  I love getting together with these ladies--we always learn alot and laugh alot! 

Today's sketch is brought to us by Kim Innis:

Isn't it fun?!!   It was fun to work with!  Here's my card:

I received a birthday card from one of my Stampin' Up! friends that used these colors and flowers--I loved it!  Thanks, Susi!!!  So, I decided to use them for this card!  I stamped the flower from Mixed Bunch three times with Early Espresso ink, then punched them out with the Blossom punch!  The sentiment is from the Sale-a-bration set, Elementary Elegance.  Colors used are Early Espresso, Bashful Blue, Pretty in Pink and So Saffron.

Please continue on our mini blog hop this morning!  Your next stop is the Sketch Frenzy homepage!!

A CASE of Julie!

As I was preparing for my stamp-a-stack last week, I got stuck!!  Just couldn't think of a clean and simple card using the Everyday Enchantment Designer paper!  I took a break and did a little blog hopping, and found Julie's awesome card HERE.  It was perfect for a class because it showed all the different designs of the designer paper!!  Here's my version--just changed the color of the stamped image!  Otherwise, all the credit goes to Julie!

Hope you all have a great day!  Be sure and head over to Julie's blog and leave her a nice comment!!

Super Simple!!

I used the Sprinkled Expressions Sale-a-bration Set, along with the Adorning Accents Hearts Embossing folder!    Colors are Real Red and Basic Black.  And, I used 3 of the Large Pearls as an accent!

Saturday Sketch Challenge #240

Good afternoon!!  It's time for another wonderful sketch over at the Stamping 411 Blog!  I hope you'll play along with us!

Isn't this a pretty sketch!  I don't usually "tilt" anything on my cards, so this was a fun change for me!  Here's my card:

I started with the fun Sweet Shop Designer Paper--love those cupcakes!   Using designer paper makes it easy to choose colors--I used all three found in the cupcake design:  Soft Suede, Pool Party and Calypso Coral!  The sentiment is from Word Play (on of my favs!), and is stamped with Soft Suede Classic Ink.  Look at that ribbon!!!  It's from the Everyday Enchantment collection in the Sale-a-bration brochure, and it's sooooo pretty!!  The brads are from the In Color Designer Printed brads--Calypso Coral.  I like the polka dots, and decided to repeat that pattern by running the soft suede and pool party background pieces through the Big Shot and the Perfect Polka Dots Embossing Folder!  I was really happy with the way this one turned out!  Hope you like it!!

If you would like the measurements, you can find them on the Stamping 411 Blog!  You'll want to head over there anyway to see what the other operators have made!!
