Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge 184


It's time for another Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge! Here is the deal: make a card with this layout and use the InLinkz button down at the very end of this post to enter your card. The links will close in two weeks, next Friday at 10 PM (Mountain Time). Be sure to link directly to the blog post or gallery image which features your card. You may post a picture of the sketch on your blog, but please save the image to your computer first. Use the keyword SSSC184 if you plan to post your card in an online gallery.

WANT TO BE A GUEST Sweet Sunday Stamper?  I'll be picking my favorite card or project after each challenge and that winner will have a special guest spot as a designer on a future Sweet Sunday Challenge.  I'm SO excited about this!  You can enter as many different cards as you'd like before the following Friday deadline, so get stampy!

I will be announcing the next Guest Sweet Sunday Stamper later this week, so be sure to check back to see if you will be joining the design team for SSSC185!

Seeing how it's Mother's Day today, maybe I should make a Mother's Day card.  I'm using Girly Graphic Tee stamps from My Favorite Things and stamped a few of the sentiments in the set in Black Licorice and Razzle Berry Ink. 



I used the circle from Blueprints 3 Die-namics (I love the pierced edge) and then layered it over the Open Scallop Doily Duo Die-namics.  The banner is one of the Jumbo Fishtail Banner STAX Die-namics in Black Licorice Card Stock and topped with a Sweet Tooth Button.

On the inside, I used several more words from Girly Graphic Tee and stacked them on top of one another to create a little montage.  I really love the inside of this one!


 The Sweet Sunday Stampers have a lot more inspiration for you, so please hop on over and see:

MFT New Product Tour

Hello and welcome to the May edition of MFT's New Product Tour!  The wait is over and all of the new products we've been showcasing this week are now available in the MFT Boutique!

Tonight, I'm giving you another look at Blueprints 3 Die-namics and I've used Cheerful Blessings to compliment it.



I stamped the sentiment twice - once in Hot Fudge Ink, masking off the 'joy' - and then again in Berrylicious Ink, masking off everything but 'joy'.  I cut the sentiment out with the circle element from the Die-namics set and then added a Open Scallop Doily Duo Die-namics in Kraft Card Stock. The layout is one of the Blueprints 3 sketches, which you can download for yourself at the MFT Blog.  


I used the same masking technique for the sentiment inside my card and then added some zigzag stitching around the Whip Cream Card Stock.


Be sure to stop by the MFT Blog for all the amazing details about this release and you can find a complete list of all designers playing along in tonight's New Product Tour.

Here are the MFT goodies I used on my card:

MFTeasers | Day 7


Welcome to the last day of Teasers for My Favorite Things!  Today is full of inspiration for you AND we have some fun prizes for you too, so be sure to hop on over to the MFT Blog to see how you can win some MFT goodies!

All of these new products will be available for purchase on May 7th @ 10 PM Eastern. 

For my card today, I'm inking up Document It - Bingo from Laina Lamb.



This was a fun one to put together - I found some All About A Boy 6x6 paper from Echo Park, which is full of fun game images, and I cut out the yellow banner with a Jumbo Fishtail Banner STAX Die-namics.  I sewed it onto the BINGO card, which is stamped in Red Hot Ink on Kraft Card Stock and I cut it out with the Insert It - 3x4 Insert Die-namics.  The little ink dauber stamp is stamped in Berrylicious Ink and then I added a little lucky flag under a Berrylicious Button.  I used the Insert It - 3x4 Notepad Die-namics in Sweet Tooth Card Stock and tucked it in behind the BINGO card.   The layout here is MOJO292.


I stamped another sentiment from the set in Black Licorice Ink on a Fishtail Flags STAX Die-namics inside the card too.
