Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge 64


Good morning - 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 end of my post to enter your card. On Thursday at 10 PM (Mountain Time), I'll randomly select one card to feature on my blog. So, as long as your card is linked by 10 PM Thursday, your card will be in the drawing. 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 SSSC64 if you plan to post your card in an online gallery.

When I made this sketch, I had these little felt cupcake stickers from Martha Stewart in mind and created my card around them.  To match the color, I chose some Kaleidoscope paper from Stampin' Up! - which I must admit, completely freaks me out!  Those colors are SO bright!  I added a little die cut Labels 9 Nestabilities on the main image panel to give it a little flair and then layered the turquoise cupcake on a 1-1/4" circle to make it stand out from the background a little bit.  The sentiment is stamped in Versamark ink and heat embossed with white embossing powder.  My card size is 5-1/2" square.

The Sweet Sunday Stampers also have amazing samples to show you today, so don't forget to stop on by to see:
Thanks for taking on the challenge this week!
