It's Been Sweet.........

Today is the last day to order from the Occasion Mini, and I thought I would try my hand at making a quick card for this week's LNS challenge and today's SCS CAS challenge using the Design Stickers, Sweet Shop.   I also used a lot of the product from the mini, and you can find those items listed below.  This week's LNS challenge is to copy a Hallmark card, and the CAS challenge was to use the colors chocolate, green and ivory/white - thought it would be fun to do a "combo" card for both of them.  This is the template from the LNS challenge:

And this is my card with the recipe listed below:

Stamps: Teeny Tiny Wishes

Inks: Soft Suede

Papers: Whisper White, Soft Suede, Sweet Shop DSP

Accessories: Big Shot, Labels Collection Framelits Dies, Adorning Accents Edgelits Dies, Adorning Accent EF, Small Oval Punch, Jelly Bean Brads, Whisper White Organza Ribbon, Sweet Shop Designer Stickers, Paper Piercing Tool, Dimensionals

LNS Challenge Sketch Card

Hey everyone - I am so glad that's it Friday!  This has been one of the most stressful weeks at work; I won't bore you with the details but I am so thankful to be at home for 2 days!

On to the fun stuff - stamping!  I made the card below for this week's LNS sketch challenge and for a SCS SU DSP/Color Focus challenge (which was to use the colors Pacific Point, Not Quite Navy, Very Vanilla and Sahara Sand).  I made the flower using different punches and layered them in this order (starting with the bottom layer): Scallop Circle, 5-Petal Flower, and Boho Blossoms.  Once I punched them out, I "squished" and rolled the flowers in my hand, and then smoothed them out.  I then inserted a Not Quite Navy brad through the middle to hold them together.  I used the Adorning Accents Textured Impressions EF and Adorning Accents Edgelits Die for the border and then ran the Very Vanilla piece through the Big Shot using the Perfect Polka Dots EF.  Here's the sketch for this week:
