Sweet Stamps Lil Sweeties

Today our challenge at Sweet Stamps blog is to use embossing folder, a die cut and a stamp. This is an awesome challenge, we want to see what you come up with for this theme. Can't wait to see what you all can come up with, but be sure to use a Sweet Stamps stamp....

Anyone can enter, but if you use a Sweet Stamps rubber stamp you get two entries into the challenge for a chance to win a $20 shopping spree. Visit the design team blog and you will see what everyone on the Design team has done.

 Here is my project:
I used a stamp called "Tristin & Elizabeth 'lil Sweeties 3054".  I stamped my image onto some cryogen card stock and colored in using copics.  I used my Cheery Lynn Classic Circles dies to cut out my colored image and for the mat behind it.  I used an embossing folder called "Exotic" by Couture Creations.  I also used "Montego Bay" shades dye ink to bring out the embossing on my cardstock.  Hope this will inspire you to get out those stamps and dies and see what you can come up with.

I used a stamp called "Stylish Tulip Silhouette", "Curling Thinking of You", and "Spotty Dotty Border" for my card today.  I stamped the Spotty Dotty Border along both sides of my card using Aquamarine Shades Dye Ink and I added some clear gems to give it a bit of sparkle. I stamped the Stylish Tulip Silhouette using Montego Bay Shades Dye ink onto some white CS and cut it out using my oval die. I used another die to cut out the mat for behind my image.  I then layered the 2 cut outs and attached them to my card front.  I then stamped Thinking of You using Aquamarine Shades Dye ink centered on the bottom of my card front.

don't miss anything.   wwww.sparklensprinkle.com/blog 
The Blog hop list is listed at the end of my post.
Did I mention prizes???

To win one of the six prizes, leave a comment on each and every blog thru-out the hop.
There are four days to comment (Feb 14 - Feb 17)- so if you get distracted by life - you can just pick up where you left off.
Three of the prizes are "hidden" on 3 different mystery designer blogs.  Even the designers don't know who has the prizes on their blogs - so don't miss any.
Leaving a heartfelt comment inspires, motivates and brings happiness to each designer!
For those who have hopped with us in the past, the heartfelt sharing you left on our blogs also touched our hearts!

For my card today, I chose to use a digital image.  The image is called "Daisy Chain". Here is my card:
The directions for making my card can be found HERE. But to sum it up, I printed out my image and colored it in using copics.  I then used a die to cut out my colored image and for the mat.  I used a border punch for the strip and I added some ribbon, a bow and some flowers. For the finishing touch, I added some pearls.
A closer peek at my colored image:


Thank you for stopping in today to check out my creation.

A Little Bit Grumpy


I decided to take a "ME" day and sit down and color some digital images that I had printed out but never did anything with them. 

This card uses a digital image from The Paper Shelter.  They have the cutest images.

I printed out my image onto some cryogen CS and colored her in using my copics .  I decided to leave my card a bit plain and only add a few embellies as I wanted my colored image to be my main focus.  Hope you all like it......

HAPPY STAMPING!!!!!!!
