Happy Tuesday!
I am back with another set of cards using the weekend sketches and this week, a fun set from There She Goes Clear Stamps. I love the humor of these sets, which is why I always am attracted to the TSG stamps!
I better address yesterday's winner and I had RC pick one this morning before he headed to school! So, Congrats to -
Great card. I really like your paper and how you added the dimension of the heart. The colors are very me. Thanks for the chance to win a little candy!

Back to the cards. The sketches that I used were Taylor's Cupcake Challenge, CPS, The Sweet Stop and Our Creative Corner (posted on Thursdays.) The stamps are from There She Goes and I used the set Loads of Fun.
The first one is for CPS...and I only made one since this was the last one. But I am also using it as my There She Goes Challenge card. The challenge on the TSG blog was to use 3 different embellishments.
I used 4 embellishments, but I don't know if the stickles count. I used ribbon which I tied around the middle chocolate cs panel. I also added a heart ghost shape behind the bow of the ribbon. Then I added some baubles on the corners of the main image panel. I used up some scraps of DP for the other two panels and matted my colored image with the caramel and pink.
I added stickles to some of the clothes, although I would hate to run those through my washer! *Ü* I punched the sentiment out using my new SU label punch. I punched the chocolate first, then I trimmed the sentiment down, and punched just the ends a little shorter than the real label punch.
These two are for the OCC sketch. I used some older My Minds Eye DP from last Valentine's Day. I stamped the images on PTI Vintage Cream cs, and then again on DP to paper piece them.
I cut the cirlces and the scalloped circles out with my Nestabilities, and I peirced the scallops. I cut the sentiment out with my nesties also, and matted on Bazzill Bling cs. Then I added come cream ribbon and a ghost shape heart. I didn't know what I thought of the cream and white but it's working OK. Perfectly lil shower cards for a bride to be or even anniversary!
These two were made for The Sweet Stop sketch, although I added a lil to them. I paper pieced the clothes hanging on the line, and added that DP to the background just to add something to the cards.
I like this card the best but didn't want to redo the other one. The lighter brown *paper* that I paper pieced is actually a paper tape. I think Making Memories, I've had it so long I don't really remember where it came from. Anyway, I love to paper piece with it, because it's self adhesive. And it's cute!! The felt flowers are froom Stampin' Up and the brad is American Crafts.
These two are from Taylor's Sketch. These two are SUPAH CAS (Clean and Simple). I used some scraps of Bazzill Bling cs and then this older paper from last years' stash. Then I added some vintage buttons from PTI and a lil twine.
The washer and dryer were also paper pieced on there. I like this saying...so perfect for Valentine's Day. Tee Hee Hee!
I hope you enjoyed this week's version! I love doing these sketch sets, and I plan to keep to one set each weekend like I did this time. Have a great Tuesday! We are off to the dentist again today! Bleh!
See ya tomorrow for Sweet Sketch Wednesday!
