S&S Sketch #60

I've had this little tub of All Night Media/Dena Designs birthday stamps for probably 8 years.  I know I haven't touched them in at least 5.....poor, neglected tub of stamps.....  Anyway, as soon as I saw the sketch this morning, they popped into my head.  They are a bit difficult to color, but I'm happy with how the card turned out.   I tried to resist the bling in the corner, because I know it takes away from my focal point, but I failed.....  I'm pretty sure I'm not the only bling resisting failure out there............lol.   ~Nancy F.

  1. What an adorable card. I love those little stamps and you did a great job with coloring them. I think the blig really adds to your total card and does not take away from your focal point at all. Your strip paper ties in nicely also.

  7. Very cute card! your little images look great on the 3 different colored mats. All the colors tie together so well. I like the green brads, because they bring out the greens in your color scheme.

  9. Very nice! This is such a great example for using small stamps (which I never manage to do well) and I don't think the bling steals attention at all because the images are detailed and colorful and they really pop against the white background.
