Freshly Made Sketch #86; Cupcake Birthday Card

-
I'll admit it, I am hooked! I love doing a challenge card. It motivates me and helps me to get those creative juices going. I had a birthday card stamp camp on Saturday and the sketch for this week was just what I needed. 
I combined some current products with some that are leaving soon. The SU paper stacks are retiring, I will miss them so much. I have at least two stacks in every color family. I use them on all of my cards. And then there is my Bashful Blue, it has been a tried and true color for every occasion......and the Curly Cute stamp set....wahhhhh!
Ok, well enough lamenting here is the card I came up with.



Supplies
stamp set: curly cute
ink: chocolate chip
paper: sahara sand, whisper white, and rich razzleberry card stock; chocolate chip, bashful blue and calypso coral designer prints dsp; silver glimmer paper
accessories: white taffeta ribbon, scallop edge punch, cupcake builder punch, and chevron embossing folder

And here is the sketch that inspired me. I invite you to play along too, it is so much fun. New sketches are up on Wednesday's, I think, then you have until Monday to add your version. Most of all it's just fun!

Happy Stampin'

Loving this fresh adorable bundle, Sweet Strawberry. It’s easy to create a dimensional look and the cards are perfect for the season. I really like stamping the strawberries onto petal pink card stock in the poppy parade ink. The punch makes it so easy to make a few strawberries at a time. I found stamping the images I wanted on a card stock strip and then punching them down the line worked well.  Supplies Stamp set : Sweet Strawberries Ink : poppy parade, granny apple green, balmy blue and soft sea foam Paper : poppy parade, petal pink, granny apple green, balmy blue, soft sea foam and basic white card stock Accessories : gold hoops, basic rhinestones, gold glitter enamel dots, crinkled seam binding, white bakers twine, polka dot tulle ribbon, Strawberry builder punch, Lovely Labels pick a punch and stitched so sweetly dies The stamp set has cute wording and great images and when you buy the bundle you get 10% off!

     I needed to get my creative juices flowing so I went in search of a new sketch. I stumbled across this blog Freshly Made Sketches , their sketches are right up my alley, I love their clean and simple style. Usually, I just jot down the sketch and go along my merry way. But this time I decided to actually play along.      I also happened to get my box of NEW Stampin' Up! goodies this week so I have incorporated those as well. Being a SU! demo I get to order a few items from the upcoming idea book and catalog. So I ordered a set of the new In Colors and a couple of the new colors being introduced.      Well, here is the Freshly Made Sketch #84, FMS84, and my first ever challenge version of it.

I punched them and colored them with my ink pad. Supplies : stamp set: Label Love (2013-2014 catalog) ink: pri
