Eat More Cake

Hi There!  Happy Tuesday!  Hope your week is off to a great start!  I've been so busy these last couple of days, I haven't had much time for crafting.  I did manage to make one card for a couple of challenges I like to do so I'm quickly sharing it so I don't miss the deadline for one of them.  It is for Sweet Sketch Wednesday #153, Simon Says Stamp (Sweet Tooth) and Basic Grey Challenges #68 (anything goes -use Basic Grey).

Here is the SSW sketch:


Here is my card:


I started with a card base of SU Almost Amethyst and layered with patterned papers from the Basic Grey Sugar Rush 6x6 pad.  My fun image is Stella Birthday- Eat More Cake from Bugaboo Stamps.  I printed her on Copic X-Press It Blending Card and colored her with Copics.  I added a bunch of Stickles to the cake and Glossy Accents to her glasses and the balloon.  I added a border punched with a Martha Stewart Edger Punch.  A satin bow, button and a bit of Baker's Twine finished off my card.

Thanks for stopping by!  Hope to be back soon with a couple of things I'm still working on.

Have a great night!
