CPS 153

The sponsor for the CPS #153 is Papertrey Ink, so of course I had to play along!


While I had the supplies out from the last 2 sketch challenges, I made this for the CPS challenge. I'm still loving this cupcake...but I'm ready to move on!! There are so many cute images in this set that I can't wait to ink up!
I'm keeping this short and sweet as it's almost 2 am here. School has already been called off for tomorrow, so I will get to sleep in a little. I'm kinda excited about that! I do have my post ready to go for tomorrow's blog hop celebrating one year of The Pink Elephant challenges. I can't wait!
Hope to see you then! ;)

CPS 124

It's been awhile since I've played along with a CPS challenge. I loved the sketch this week and this is what I came up with for CPS 124:






I'm posting this from the office today and for some reason the background looks pink-ish. I hope it's just my monitor here, cause there is no pink in this card! Anyway, I have a ton of work to do and only 4 more days of summer school for the kiddos so I need to take advantage of every quiet minute!
Thanks for stopping by!

CPS104 sponsored by Papertrey Ink

Papertrey Ink is sponsoring another sketch over at CPS. A great sketch sponsored by one of my favorite stamp companies! It doesn't get any better than that for me! So here is the sketch:

Here is my card:

In real life it is very sparkly! The butterfly and the centers of the flowers are glittered. I stamped the polka dot background with Berry Sorbet ink then Fresh Snow ink on top of that. It just gave the polka dots some dimension and makes them pop off of the card!
