Wow has a week really gone by since I last posted? I am happy to report that my hand is on the mend and I was able to get some stamping done over the past few days, which means more posts this week :)
I am also happy to report that we have a great sketch challenge for you this week at Stampin' Royalty. This was a fun CAS sketch but I just love how different all the DT cards turn out. Be sure to check them out for some awesome inspiration.
Here's the sketch:
and my card:
Guess what?-there is absolutely no stamping on here! I used the new Love Impressions Rub Ons from the Occasions Mini Catalogue. They are so fun and easy to use. Although this card is very Claen and Simple I wanted to give it a little "pop" so I actually applied all of the Rub ons to Pink Pirouette Card stock first then cut them out and attached the ballon and white cloud with Dimensionals.
The card base is Basic Gray, I then layered on some Whisper White that had been embossed with the Perfect Polka Dots Impressions Folder and my Big shot. The strip of DSP is from the Play Date Designer Series Paper Pack and I used the Spiral Punch for the fun decorative edge. The main image layer was matted and for a touch of embelishment I used a Library clip from the Clips Assortment and a small piece of Real Read 1/4" Grograin Ribbon.
And it wouldn't be a proper Valentine with out a glimmery red heart! (I sooo love the new Glimmer Paper)
They are also having a Valentine Challenge over on the SU-Only Blog (and I really can't resist a good challenge) so I just had to combine the two!
Have a great day,
very cute! I love the way you offset the main image! Thanks for joining us at SUO Challenges :)

Fun take on the sketch.
I love the clips and spiral border. I've loved those tiny clips forever and I just finally ordered them and will probably use them very sparingly!
