CPS 161

Here is the sketch for this week from CPS. 







Here is my card.  All the papers, flowers, brads, rub-ons and lace are from Kaiser Craft from the Devonshire line.  I got it in my March Scarlet Lime kit and I really liked the colors.  The pin is from my stash and I inked the edges of the papers with Chestnut Roan chalk ink from Color Box.  I punched the edge of the tag with a Martha Stewart punch.

CPS 155

I've been busy...I also have a card today for the Card Positioning Systems sketch 155. 

This card was made with my January Key Ingredients kit from Taylored Expressions, except for the cherries, For You stamp and ink.  The patterned paper if from Basis Grey's Nook and Pantry line.  The stamp is from Inkadinkadoo and the ink is black from CTMH.  I made the cherries from chipboard.  I colored them with copic markers e49 - dark bark and r27 - cadmium red.  I used a jelly roll pen to put the highlight on them and then covered the cherry part with glossy accents.  I put the white circle on foam squares.  I distressed the paper edges and used Tim Holtz's distress ink in tea dye.  The cherries are much shinier in person!

TESC Sketch 102


Here is my take on the Taylored Expressions Sketch 102.  I love this paper from Cosmo Cricket from the Early Bird 6x6 paper pad.  My Best Friend is a sticker from the same line, I place it on a piece of chipboard.  The off white card is from my stash and I used Tim Holtz's distress ink in tea dye.

(for some reason I cannot get the sketch picture from her blog to load here, sorry!)
