Stitched With Love: 2 Sketches 4 You Challenge


Happy Friday Everyone!! This has been such a slow week. Didn't feel well a couple of days and definitely have not been creative! No posts since last Monday. I decided today I had to get at least one card done! This is from the new Papertrey Ink set, Daily Designs by Alli Miles. The sentiment is from the companion set, Daily Designs Sentiments. I LOVE these--so many great stamps!

I decided to go with a fairly simple design and loved the sketch for this week from 2 Sketches 4 You. Cardstock is all PTI. The card base is Sweet Blush. I embossed the white layer with the Cuttlebug embossing folder, Argyle. The next layer is stamped at the bottom with a Martha Stewart Valentine set stamp and the embossing at the top is another Cuttlebug embossing folder, Just My Type borders. I brushed across the EF with some Versamark Old Rose ink. The top layer is cut with Spellbinders Label 1 and stamped with a Waltzingmouse Very Vintage Labels #1 stamp. The center is the heart and sentiment from the Daily Designs sets. I added 3 strips of Making Memories patterned paper and some pearls. Ink used was the Old Rose and PTI Berry Sorbet.

We got out tonight for a quick dinner at a neighborhood restaurant but other than that have been pretty well snowed in. Still snowing as I post but hoping for a clearer Saturday!

Have a good weekend,
Sharron

I really love all of the textures you included in this! The background dry embossing the WMS label and the cross stiched heart! It's so pretty and the pearls are the perfect finishing touch!
