TCP and the CPS

Do you ever sometimes feel like you are always speaking in acronymns? That's how I feel with technology lately, even when I write this blog or when sending an email I feel like just writing u for you and ttyl for talk to you later. Sorry for the tangent, just one of my random thoughts. On to todays post. I started thinking that I was going to combine a few challenges but sometimes I think that just limits you in your creative juices so then I went at it again and this product I am pretty happy with.

This is for the TCP Tuesday card at The Cat's Pajamas and the CPS blog sketch. So I did combine a few challenges just not what I was originally shooting for. Here is the sketch for the challenge. The color challenge from Toni at the Cat's Pajamas was to use Navy, Green and White. The DP is from Scenic Route, the other solid color papers are from my stash. The flowers are from Prima and the bling is from my stash.

CPS Challenge 102

As you can see I really love this set by Papertrey Ink. The set is called Warm Happiness and if you are interested in purchasing it can be found here. This is for the Challenge at Card Positioning System and here the sketch you should use.

For this card I stamped the image on Papertrey's white cardstock in Stampin Up's Real Red in and then stamped the outline in Ranger's Epresson ink. I then used the little dot that came with the set to stamp little circle all round using inks from Stampin Up. I then used Papertrey's papers to add layers to the image. I used a Martha Stewart punch to make the doiley scallop border at the bottom. I just typed my sentiment on the computer and sent my paper through. I added a heart to the image with ribbon from Joanne's and I added some white marks with my Inkssentials white opaque pen. I am trying to stage my cards a little, how do you like it?
