Welcome to C.C. Designs Spring Sugarplums Blog Hop!!

The Spring Sugarplums stamp release is so large the entire team is participating in a blog hop to give all of you just a taste of the fabulous creations you can make with these stamps!

If you have just happened across my blog and didn't start at the beginning click here <-------click!


I am so excited to show you my creation! I had so much fun coloring this image and pairing it together with my new Cosmo Cricket Mini Deck called Garden Variety. The buttons are Cosmo Cricket as well. I chose to use the couple for my creation. I colored them with my copics and airbrushed around the edge after I cut it out with my new Labels Ten die templates (S5-022). I paper pierced around the edges. The couple are wearing classy in style clothing done by paper piecing the gorgeous scrapbook paper. I hope you enjoy this card as much as I did creating it for you. :)

Wednesday challenge ~ Grid Technique

I adore Christine's images. :) They just make me smile. I challenged the DT today to use the Grid technique from SCS to use on their project. You can see their beautiful work here at the ATS blog. I decided this gorgeous paper had to be used to paper piece her outfit. Grin. I love her style. Isn't she cute?
