Happy New Year's Eve


First - a reminder that next week is the start of Stampin' Royalty - a new challenge blog. We go live January 6th. Please click on the link on my sidebar to find out what it's all about. And as promised, another sneak peek from my upcoming samples for Stampin' Royalty. This image is from a fabulous set callsed Totally Tess.

And now for my entry for the Sweet Stampin Challenge blog.
I really wanted to try out this week's challenge at the Sweet Stampin' Challenge Blog. Click here to see their site. It's a relatively new challenge blog. This week was a sketch challenge and above is my take on it. Many of the products used are from the new Occasions Mini which is coming out next week. This card was inspired by a scrapbook page made by the Artisan Award Winner Jolene Flock. You can find her work in this month's Stampin' Success (the demonstrator only Mag) The middle "DSP" is actually made with stamps. I stamped off several of the images to make them lighter.

The Recipe:
1. Cardstock - Bermuda Bay, Rich Razzleberry, Kraft, Whisper White
2. Stamps - Vintage Vogue, Great Friend
3. Ink - Bermuda Bay, Rich Razz, Old Olive, Stampin Write Markers - Rich Raz, B Bay.
4. Accessories - Bermuda Bay 1/2" polka dot grosgrain ribbon, Scallop Edge Punch, Hodgepodge Hardware (Label frame), Pretties Kit (Rhinestone Brads), Big Beautiful Butterflies Bigz Die for Big Shot
