Here's my card for this week's Waltzingmouse Sketch Challenge (WMSC32). I started off with a heart shaped doily, I've never actually used paper doilies on my cards before (I know I can't believe it either!) this one is actually pink but I used the reverse because it was a little too pink! Anyway, here's this week's sketch.
Yea, my card is a loose interpretation of the sketch this week! ; ) I also made my card with this week's Tuesday Trigger in mind - Sweets for the Sweet at Moxie Fab World.
Love the yummy pinks, creamy fudge and pretty scalloped edging on the box. Such a fab photo!!
I filled the centre of my heart doily with pretty little roses - Prima fairytale roses in baby pink. I brushed the tops of them with some white acrylic paint. Really made them pop!
The sentiment is from the Sweethearts stamp set from Waltzingmouse Stamps. I stamped the whole background using Text-It also from Waltzingmouse Stamps in Rose Bud ink. I used a little distress ink in Antique Linen on the edges.
I used some paper from Papermania Rose Garden on the very base layer, you can just see it peeping through. I love have how pretty this turned out! Don't forget to check out the rest of the team's creations at the Waltzingmouse Sketch Challenge, they really are AMAZING this week!!
Supplies:
Card/Paper: White card, Papermania Rose Garden, Sugar Blossom by Quirky Twerp from the Digichick
Stamps: Sweethearts and Text-It from Waltzingmouse Stamps
Ink: Black Archival Ink, Memento Rose Bud Ink, Tim Holtz Distress Ink Antique Linen
Other: Prima Fairytale roses baby pink, sewing machine, pink heart shaped doily, white acrylic paint, sticky fixers, pink picot edged ribbon, pearl flourish.
