Oh Boy Sweet Sunday

Did you miss the hour of sleep last night?!  I love the lighter evenings and since I don't have to get up early in the mornings I am a fan of "spring ahead"  Karen has another amazing sketch for us this week (SSSC108)!


OK when I picked my image I clearly had my sketch sideways on my desk and by the time I figured it out the paper was piked and I didn't want to flip the entire sketch SO here is my interpretation of the sketch


Oh Boy Ian from the Greeting Farm is stamped with mementos ink onto Bella's bestest cream paper.  I love this paper, I know a lot of you love the x-press blend, but with bella's bestest paper I can just keep layering on the colours (especially for the hair) and it soaks in nicely.  For me I've found the ink sits on top of the x-press; am I doing something wrong?!  The ds paper is October Afternoons Campfire (a gift from my wonderful friend Wendy) and of course I paper pieced his shirt.  I think soon I will have to admit my addiction (paper piecing) within my addiction of stamping!  I paper pierced around my layers and added some buttons and ribbons to finish my card.

Please stop by and check out the rest of the Sweet Sunday Stampers creations; yeah we were all able to play along this week!


I hope you can play along with Karen's sketch this week, just remember to link your card on her blog with inlinz.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day

So sweet, Dana! Love the papers! LOL I'm not a fan of springing ahead. I like to drive to work in daylight makes getting up so much nicer ;)
