Cheeky Business

Good morning everyone!  How did Monday get here so fast?!

Stopping in quickly to share a card I made using a stamp I grabbed from The Greeting Farm called Cheeky Sweet.  I absolutely adore her!!  This week, The Greeting Farm is challenging us to use flowers for their Farm Fresh Friday challenge!

These yummy papers are from the Lost & Found - Union Square collection courtesy of My Mind's Eye.  I think this has to be one of my favorite pads with lots of vintage-y prints in cream, black and red.  Makes just about any creation pop!  I added some Crystal Stickles from Tim Holtz for the frosting and Diamond Stickles on the black Recollections roses.  The beautiful red rose is from Spare Parts. Last but not least, I made my own rolled rose without a die, using some paper scraps, and adhered a Queen & Co. pearl in the center. 

Thanks for stopping by and taking a peek.  Hope you have a good start to your week!

Thinking of you

TGIF!  So so happy it is almost the weekend.  This week has been crazy for sure! 

For today's creation, I used this adorable Saturated Canary image that I've never inked up before.  She was so much fun to color!


I used the current sketch at Papertake Weekly's challenge blog as inspiration.  This sketch is definitely a keeper.  The papers are from the "Oh Darling" collection courtesy of Crate Paper.  They are filled with such yummy patterns and colors.  The white flowers and the turquoise resin flower are from Recollections.  I chipped off the white flower centers and adhered some Queen & Co. pearls, which I felt matched the papers better and added a little more pizazz.  The rosebud is from Spare Parts.  The sentiment is from the Many Mini Occasions stamp set by Taylored Expressions...one of my absolute favorite sentiment sets!

Thanks for stopping by and taking a peek!  Hope each one of you has a stress-free and wonderful weekend!
