Honey Bee Playful Pastels It's a Girl! card with Sketch N Scrap

I worked in my craft room as much as possible today and managed to create this card with only hours to spare using a sketch from Sketch N Scrap.  My niece recently had a baby girl and this is for her.

Here is the sketch I used Sketch N Scrap sketch #271.

I had the die cut in my stash so I can't remember where it was cut from.  I looked at my 6x6 paper stacks and right on top was this Pretty Pastels from Honey Bee.

All the papers are from this paper stack.  I think found the crotched flower in my stash.  It had a large hole so I dug around for something interesting to put in the center.  I found an appropriate vintage pastel button.

I finished off the card with a couple of iridescent flower sequins.

 Ingredients:

Honey Bee Playful Pastels 6x6 papers

It's A Girl Electronic die cut

Crocheted flower

button and sequins

I thought of you today card for Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge

I thought of you today and made this card. I used the latest Atlantic Hearts Challenge sketch. I used some old dies and some newly acquired second hand dies on this card.  I haven't played with the Cheery Lane foliage dies in a while.  The new ones are by Love from Liz.  I purchased them second hand and discovered this company.  They have some neat stuff.

Here is the sketch.

I manipulated the die to raise the flower petals. And inked edges of die cuts and card layers with SU Tip Top Taupe and my new acquisition of blending brushes.  I do like the way they spread the ink.  I will be using them more..

An aerial view.

Stampin Up All Boxed Up with Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challange

Welcome to my blog today.  I am creating for Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge.  I recently purchased this Honey Bee paper second hand.  I thought it was so pretty, but who knew I would come up with this March holiday card with it!  I found this awesome sticker sheet in my March holiday stash.  I consulted my color swatches and found Stampin Up Wild Wasabi to be the best ink match.

Here is this week's sketch.

A close up of my cluster.  I created with sentiment strips and stickers. I added the circular sticker to white cardstock and die cut it.  Then popped it up with foam stickers.

It's so easy to coordinate with a paper stack.

Ingredients:

Stampin Up All Boxed Up stamp

Stampin Up Wild Wasbi Ink

Honey Bee Playful Pastels 6x6 papers

Spellbinders various circle dies

Kindred Stamps Sentiment Strip dies

Creative Imaginations Emerald Isle stickers

Versamagic Sage Dewdrop
