I used a Tina Wenke stamp for this card. It was colored with Copic markers, ribbon from JoAnn's, embossing folder is Cuttlebug and the daisy is Martha Stewart.
Hope you enjoyed my version of the sketch.

I can't wait for spring and WARM weather so I thought I would get a head start by using bright spring colors on my card. This is the SHAKER card I created based on this sketch.
I stamped this Tina Wenke Stamp with Memento Black ink. It was colored with Copic markers. The papers are from K and Co, ribbon from Hobby Lobby and the pearls from Queen and Co.

The card is a step card with a little variation....the steps are only on one side. The card fits into a standard A2 envelope. The wedding colors were blue and purple as you can see from the bouquet that was used by one of the bridesmaids. The butterflies are from a Martha Stewart punch, the ovals are Nestabilities, and embossing folders are Cuttlebug.
This card went together quickly and I will definitely be making more side step cards. If you would like the measurements to make this card, leave a comment. I could use a little love!

Applying colored sugar takes a steady hand and a gentle shaking motion.
Concentration is very important.
Sometimes too much sugar causes funny faces.
Those aren't puffy cheeks! A teddy graham jumped into his mouth. Mmmm good.
The finished houses were works of art.
The youngest wanted to play with the toys not pose for another photo! I can't blame them...decorating houses is hard work.
This house is very artistic and colorful. I love the wreath over the door. There is even a door knob and the decorative colored balls at the peak of the house were placed there one at a time. Wow now that's attention to details.
This is today's card:
See you tomorrow!

One Nestability die and Vintage Photo dye ink were used on this card. A green ribbon, a red Christmas tree brad and three gold pearls added a little bling. This card is fairly simple but there is beauty in simplicity. See you tomorrow!

Sizzix embossing folder, EK Success edge punch and Vintage Photo dye ink were used on this card. The image was highlighted with a Sakura Stardust pen. A gold metallic pen was applied to the edges of the papers. See you tomorrow!

Nestability deckled edge die, Cuttlebug folder, and Stazon opaque Cotton White ink pad were used to create this card. I didn't use much "bling" on this card. I did highlight the image with a Sakura Stardust pen. The center of the metal star was filled with Stickles, the corners of the green background were rounded and all the edges were highlighted with a gold metallic pen. See you tomorrow!

Two of the same size scalloped Nestability dies were used, one for the photo and one for mauve cardstock. The mauve piece was offset from the picture and about 1/3 of it was cut off. The small snowflakes are from a Fiskar corner punch. Instead of using this punch to make a decorative corner it was used only for the snowflakes that are left over after punching the corner. A larger white charm has a bow on top tied with some silver thread. Vintage photo was sponged around the picture and was then detailed on the edges with a gold metallic pen. See you tomorrow!

Personally I like the hot chocolate and marshmallow part the best. I am not a "snow" person.
You know how I love "bling" so can you find it on this card?
Cuttlebug embossing folder, Nestability dies, deckle edge scissors, and Vintage Photo dye ink were used on this card. The background has Vintage Photo sponged over the raised areas. The remaining pieces have Vintage Photo sponged on the edges of the paper. The edges of the paper were highlighted with a gold metallic pen. Hint the "bling" is in the bottom right side under Christmas Greetings. See you tomorrow!
