CCMC 249

Good morning everyone! I'm here with another great Thursday challenge from the Create with Connie and Mary team! This week we have a sketch challenge!


Such a fun sketch with lots of fun layers! Here's what I did!


Time is counting down and the new catalog will debut more wonderful stamps and accessories! Every year Stampin' Up! comes out with a new stamp set that is made to raise money for the Ronald McDonald House Charities. This past year the stamp set has been the Moving Forward stamp set. I have loved this set even though I feel like I haven't used as much as I could have. Such cute images and images that can be used for a lot of different occasions! I look forward to this coming year's set! Anyway, back to the card... I ran a piece of Real Red card stock through the Big Shot using the Chevron embossing folder and then adhered it to a piece of Whisper White. On top of this I adhered a piece of Marina Mist and Daffodil Delight Polka Dot Parade designer paper. Around this I tied a piece of Real Red 1/8" taffeta ribbon and then adhered this to a Whisper White card base. Then I cut an oval from Whisper White using the Ovals framelits dies and used the Essentials paper piercing pack to pierce around the inside the edge of the oval. I inked up just the greeting from the stamp in black StazOn and stamped it on the oval. The oval is popped up onto the card. Then I stamped the blimp on Whisper White in Marina Mist and cut it out and popped it up onto the oval. I added a rhinestone to the propeller to finish it off. 

Be sure to visit the Create with Connie and Mary website to get more inspiration and to see all the different ideas that the designers came up with using this fun sketch! Thanks so much for stopping by and have a super day!
