SugarPea Desings Sketch Challenge {SPD07-shore are sweet}

It's time for the next SugarPea Designs sketch challenge. I was so excited to play along as a July Guest Designer.  I just had to use the sweet new, just released Sea Side Wishes Stamp set. I looove this girl. 

I stamped her onto x-press blending cardstock with momento ink and then pieced up her dress and colored the rest of her with Copics. I added some Wink of Stella glitter pen to my sea shell and star fish. 

I added a little circle tag for my sentiment placement and tied on a sweet little anchor. The papers are from Fancy Pants, Down by the Shore from last summer. I masked off the words and only inked up part of the sentiment at a time so it would fit onto my circle. 

Here is the sketch. We sure hope you'll play along. 

 The rules are very simple…

• Create a new card or project using the SugarSketch provided.
• SugarPea Design STAMPS are NOT required to play along or to win but would be appreciated

Mojo Monday {Go-pher it}

New stamps make me happy.  I was one of the lucky winners of a gift certificate to the brand new stamp company, Sugar Pea Designs during their countdown month. Thanks so much Wendy!!! The release was last week and I ordered right away. Cute stamps!
My first love was the new Go-pher it set. ohmygosh!!! he's adorable. I used the pointillism coloring technique (using lots of small dots, in lots of colors)  to create his fur. 

I followed the Mojo Monday sketch for this week,  but in place of the square focal point, I stamped my gopher onto a circle. I nestled the sentiment right along the curve of the circle. 

I added a drop of Crystal Effects (by SU) to his light and then added some Stickles to those diamonds. Who doesn't love a sparkly diamond?!! A cluster of enamel dots and a quick wrap of some hemp twine and my card was done. 

I can't wait to see what others do with these stamps. And I am really looking forward to see what Sugar Pea Designs comes out with next. For now I'll keep myself busy with this set and the Bussel and a Peck stamp set. I'm coloring that up next. 

Have a great Friday!
