Sweet Stop Sketch Challenge # 209

I am honoured to be a new member of the Sweet Stop Sketch Challenge team -  I will do my best to live up to the very high standard of the other team members, who have inspired me for some time.  Do check out the SSS blog whenever you can, participate in the challenges and be inspired by the creative talent you will find there.  Here is the sketch and this is my card.
  



I have used Sweet n' Sassy Birthday Bash stamp set for the cupcake, cutting out the cake wrapper and frosting with the coordinating die.   I have used dp by Gina K from my stash, and some ice-blue corrugated card which I thought looked like a cake wrapper.  Some heat set puff paint completes the topping.  The sentiment is from another SNS stamp set - Rhubarb's Birthday Wish.

Now don't forget to head on over to the rest of the team, to see what they have come up with for this challenge;   Cathy McCauley, Korin Sutherland, Ceal Pritchett, Faye-Wynn Jones, Marlena Peduzzi, Melissa Shultz,Robin Parker, Stephanie Serrano, Cynthia Olheiser, Debbie Owens, and Jamie Moore.

Something Shiny

We all love shiny things I think, so this week's challenge at Less is More is a JOY!  Here is my card, which will add to my Christmas stash. Hard to see the shine, but the next view might be better. I die cut the Joy to the World Wreath by Cheery Lyn, and inlaid it back into the white card front.  It seems to suit the CAS style better this way.  The shiny sentiment is cut from silver mirror card, mounted to self adhesive foam - as you can see in the shiny photo - no messy glue to spoil the effect! While visiting the LIM blog, I realised that my card would also qualify for the current  Muse challenge.   This is the first time I have entered, so here are their rules: Use  the inspiration card as a starting point - strictly speaking, I found my card fits the criteria after I had made it, but the links are - metallic sentiment, scattered berries, and a stitched border to frame the panel. Make  a Christmas or winter-themed card,

The challenge at LIM this week is to use washi - how lucky for me that yesterday I tried CASEing a card I saw on Etsy which used a single wooden button on a small notecard.  I didn't use a wooden button, but a die I've had for ages, with WASHI on cardstock - - woo hoo! So I'm ready early today - Sunday morning here in Australia, with temps in the 30s! Cardstock cut 18cm x 9cm for a top fold 9 x 9cm (3.5" x 3.5") Stamp is a freebie from Cardmaking and Papercraft Issue 165 - love the fonts Die is by Simon Says Stamp - Partial Cut Flowers Button die is a set of 3 by Joy!
