Happiness: Good Friends, family, summer at the beach, creating with rubber stamps

 

Springtime in the park

Sorry! I didn’t scrap all week! I do have something to share with you though.

Last weeks sketch challenge on SCS was easy peasy for me. A square card!!!

Surprise, surprise….my card base is a 5″ x 10″ piece of Chocolate chip cardstock folded in half.

Next was a 4 3/4″ ticket corner punched piece of Shimmery White cardstock followed by a 4 1/2″ piece of Soft Sky Prints Designer paper.

The top square consists of a 2 3/4″ paper pierced  and ticket corner punched square of  Certainly Celery Prints Designer Paper adhered to a 1/4″ bigger piece of Chocolate Chip cardstock.

I tied yellow ribbon from the Fairy Tale Ribbon Originals.

The main image is from the set Time for You out of the Occasional Mini catalog.

I stamped it in black Stazon on a 2″ x 2 3/8″ piece of Shimmery White cardstock.

Next I inked up just a few of the flowers from the basked of the bike image from the same set. I doodled the stems and some grass with my black Micron pen. Then I colored the image with Chocolate Chip, Certainly Celery, Apricot Appeal, Pumpkin Pie and Soft Sky classic inks and Aqua painter.

I layered the main image first on a 1/4″ bigger piece of Chocolate Chip, then on a 3/8″ bigger piece of Pumpkin Pie cardstock.  I inked up only the word always from the sentiment with black Stazon, stamped in on Shimmery White cardstock, punched it out with the small oval punch and added it to the card with an oval frame from the Aged Copper Hodgepodge Hardware kit.

To tie in the hardware, I added a few more brads with 1/4″ cardstock circle washers.
