The Sweet Stop - Sketch SSS158

Best Friends at Karber Stamps

It's Thursday! and that means it's time for sponsor spotlight at Lollipop Crafts. This week's challenge is sponsored by the wonderful Karber Stamps...

KARBER is a company created by Karla Barradas and Berenice Rendon. All began for passion to art and crafts, as friends we decided to join our different talents. In July 2010 that journey would lead us from hobby to a business and “Karber Digital Images” was created.  Recently, Karber Digital Images expanded to offer it's customers rubber stamps available through Sparkle Creations Store and therefore,  have changed their name simply to Karber Stamps.  Visit Karber Stamps store HERE or their blog HERE . 

and I got this adorable image to play with...

are they the cutest BFFs? Jenny and Layla are just two of the cuties from Karber Stamps, and you can find more adorable images at their store!


Followed a sketch from The Sweet Stop, colored the images up in Copic markers,  and added some shine and sparkle! The sentiment tag has Baker's Twine in Lilac and Pink Sorbet - to match the girls' dresses. Using a Fiskars hand-punch with a small heart, punched out the border on the red strip. Some old hearts from previous punching were left in the plastic holder... and when I emptied it, there were a couple of hearts that had the perfect colors!


Now, time for you to hop over to the Lollipop Crafts blog to see more inspiration from my team mates. There's plenty of time still to join in this week's challenge, where you can win some adorable images from Karber Stamps!

LOVE is everywhere...

Guess who I found hiding. . .Miko from TGF's Roll Call Kit. Don't you think she's the perfect cutie for a valentine card?  This week at Club Anya's Mystery Monday is a gorgeous card by Linapyssel! Here's my version of the fun layout. . .

Using one of my favorite color combos, pink and green, I colored Miko in copics and just gave her a slight shimmer on her dress and bows with Sakura clear stardust pen. The heart and key punch is from Martha Stewart, perfect for the journal paper called Love Letters from Little Yellow Bicycle. Used a strip of hearts from Basic Grey's Olivia papers, pink cardstock is embossed with a cuttlebug folder, background cardstock is randomly stamped with AmyR's sentiment set, and the hearts and stars banner is a border stamp from Recollections (found at Michael's).

Here's a little tip for those who don't have many colors of floss or baker's twine. . .I used a kraft colored hemp cord and inked it with green chalk inkpad. Now I have the perfect twine to tie my buttons!

Happy Turtle...

Today I have birthday card to share.  This cute turtle is from Bugaboo Stamps, a fabulous site with adorable images! The sentiment is from AmyR's collection. In case if I needed one, I wanted to have a bday card for an adult male. So what do you think?

Some stickles on the balloons and swirls. Glossy accents to the party hat and horn, and some shine on the turtle too!

I noticed now that the glue wasn't qutie dried behind the buttons, oh well! Couldn't retake it because the card is already given away. It turns out that my BIL's bday was yesterday nite... so the card has already found a happy home!

You Take The Cake...

Is it Saturday already? How time flies when you're having fun!!  Today I have a card for the Tiddly Inks Challenge. It's a sketch challenge designed by the fabulous Betty Boo.



This adorable cutie and sentiment are from the set called Cherry on Top. I love the cupcakes, but have a tough time coloring them! Just can't seem to get it to blend right. Maybe it's time to get more copics in the same color groups.  hehee!

I added some swirls on the bottom corner. Wish I had some "real" pearl swirls, but I don't...so this is drawn with Sakura Stardust Clear pen, then added Lavender Lace liquid pearls. The pearls came out lighter than I wanted... you know what that means... gotta get more colors!

Special Thanks...

It's been so slow for my to get back into making cards. The kids have been back to school for a week now, so finally I found some quiet time to make this card...which is going to someone that I won awesome candy from awhile back. I'm not mentioning her name here, cause I wanna surprise her! But she is super talented and so inspirational!

I tried quite a few new techniques here. First I followed a fantastic tutorial from Color me Copic, made by the one and only Amy Young, on coloring curly hair. All I can say is she makes it look so easy, but I defninitely need to practice ALOT more! I also "tried to" distress the edges...didn't look like it made much difference. Lastly, I used some fabulous Shimmerz on the flowers...think I need more colors now! hehee! Oh..and I followed one of the FFF sketch by Mercy!

Karber - Thank You
YNS - Anything goes
