Sketch Saturday # 37

This cupcake card was made using the latest Sketch # 37 over Sketch Saturday.

The spotty and pink checked papers are from the Papermania Sweet Nothings pack as is the chipboard shape. I had the pack as a free gift for subscribing to a magazine and it is the first time I have had a full matchimg set of papers and elements. Makes a nice change to have everything to match! I highlighted the cherry with Glossy Accents and the sprinkles with Sakura clear glitter pen.

The textured paper is a wallpaper that I got from a DIY store and I highlighted the embossing with a small white Brilliance inkpad. The bling on the corners are from a big pack of assorted sizes from Poundland. I love the colours in these papers :)

Sketch Saturday # 36

Another 1st for me !! Every time I see a sketch on the Sketch Saturday blog I think they are very creative and different and then never get chance to do one !

I have had a go at this weeks sketch # 36. I had a look at the shapes of the image and sentiment boxes and pulled some pre-printed items that I had in my images folder.

The Forever Friends image and the sentiment are digital freebie printables that I have picked up on my travels over the last couple of years. I have no idea who produced them I am afraid.

The ribbons are a selection of HOTP and Brenda Pinnick ones from QVC kits. The backing paper is from the Papermania Forever Friends love pad and I used my Martha Stewart punch for the vellum edging which I lightly inked.

This is the fist time I have used ribbon on this way and it is quite effective. One of my forum buddies showed me a card she had made last weekend and I thought I would have a go with this sketch.
