And what does the Lord require of you but to do justly, and to love kindness
and mercy, and to humble yourself and walk humbly with your God? (Micah 6:8)

Flower Fields for Mom

Welcome friends!  So many happy events going on today!  This weekend is the Heirloom Paper Crafts Show in Allentown and Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps has their booth all set up and ready to go.  If you're in the Allentown, PA area, stop by to say HI and catch a glimpse of the new stamp sets being released in May...that's right...you'll have the opportunity to purchase these fabulous sets BEFORE they are even released!  Yours truly will be working at the "Make & Take" table so be sure to introduce yourself if you get a chance to stop by!  


It's also time for week two of celebrating three years of wonderful sketches at The Sweet Stop.  The Sugar Babies have chosen their favorite sketches for their samples today.  To participate, you will choose the sketch you would like to play along with...AND...of course there will be a PRIZE again this week!  Get ready for some fabulous eye candy as you visit the blogs of each of the Sugar Babies...then choose one of your favorites to play along!  




Creative Nugget:  The new clear stamp set, Flower Field, was used to create my Mother's Day card. Some BasicGrey Lemonade paper was perfect for the background.  Copics were used to color this fun image to match the flowers in the background.  The flowers on the top layer were given dabs of Stickles to make them sparkle. Texture was added to the first layer of flowers with a canvas impression plate. Each panel was layered onto Purely Pomegranate card stock and then onto a Vintage Cream card base.  A Cheery Lynn butterfly die was added to the lower corner and some lace and pearls were added to the sentiment panel.  The sketch I chose for my card was SSS30. Take a look at what the other Sugar Babies chose!
