PCCCS115 – Bright & Cheerful

Happy Sunday hope you are having a great day. Weather here is beautiful today – sunny, windy and warm for this time of year, perfect day to spend on the sun porch relaxing and crafting, I am working on a Christmas swag for my living room.  Once I have the swag complete, I will post a photo. Todays card is for the Paper Craft Crew Card Sketch #115, the sketch is below.

This is one of those cards that when I saw the sketch I knew I wanted to use the “Too Kind” stamp set for the focal stamped image and bright/cheerful colors for the card, so Sweet Taffy Designer Series Paper it is. For me, the hardest part of the card was finding a stamp with a small enough sentiment.  The flower is a two stamp process, I inked the first stamp with Melon Mambo – stamped on scratch paper – then on Whisper White just above the stem, second stamp was inked with Melon Mambo and stamped full strength on top of the first image, for a two tone look. The image in the top right corner is from the Dotty Angles stamp set, stamped off the page. Scraps of Old Olive, Rich Razzleberry and Melon Mambo add the shapes. The bow is made with the new 1/4″ Cotton Ribbon, 2 pieces of ribbon were used for the bow.

Thanks for stopping by, have a great week. Remember you can order any of the supplies for todays card by clicking the link below. Craft On!
