Try Stampin on Tuesday #164

Hello to all my blogging friends, I hope this post finds you all well and happy.

Try stamping on Tuesday has the Sweetest Sketch Challenge for us this week.
TST #164 Here is their link http://www.trystampinontuesday.blogspot.com/

and here is their sketch.

This is what I came up with.

I found an old Sizzlits Film Strip Die I had in my stash. (I didn't even know I had it!) Do you have goodies like that hanging around your stash too?

This was a fun sketch trying to figure out what three sweet things to put in that space?? When I found this strip I thought why not pretend I was taking pictures  of a Lolly Pop Tree at various stages of blooming. Each frame building on the next. I used the background paper to look like Gumballs...Well that was my idea anyhow lol. The two rows of Rhinestones really jazz up this film strip they remind me of the little candy dots that came on a sheet of paper. Do remember those? This turned out to be quite a Yummy card considering I do not have any Sweet Treat Stamp Sets. For this challenge I was only able to use my sweet imagination.

Here is a look at the inside.

These are the supplies I used to create this card

Card Stock
Whisper White,Calypso Coral, Basic Grey and Smoky Slate.
Designer Series Paper (DSP)
Water Color Wonder.
Stamp Set
Field Flowers and My Friend.
Punch
Word Window.
Ink
Smoky Slate
Misc. 
Rhinestones, Organza Ribbon and Sizzlit Die- Film strip.

That's it for this card. I hope my card and the sweet sketch inspires you enough to give it a try.

Chat Soon,
Patrice

                                        HAPPY EASTER

Wow, I have two great sketches that I combined this week. One from Try Stamping on Tuesday #163  http://www.trystampinontuesday.blogspot.com/ and the other was from The Paper Craft Crew Card Challenge #89 http://www.papercraftcrew.com/.

These sketches were so close that it worked out great combining them into one card.

Here is what I came up with,

I needed a few Easter cards to send out to our family in CA, so these sketches really did give me the inspiration I needed. The ovals, Pearls and the fun DSP made for a special Faberg'e Egg look. What do you think?

Now for a look at the inside.

Supplies used to make this card.

Very Vanilla, Basic Black and Melon Mambo.

Today I'm off to go out and work in the garden. It has been really beautiful outside the last few days so I'm taking full advantage of this lovely weather.  I think this time I will take my camera with me so you can see some before and after photos of how the garden is coming along. For Easter Jeff bought me lot's of Yard Art and goodies to put in the garden. He is so good to me I just love that man.
