Stamps & Smiles - SASSC36

I am determind to get more challenges done again as I seem to never get the time anymore. So last night I sat at my desk & after trying two other images finally created a card using William again. I can see this stamp set getting an amazing amount of use.

I love the sketches on Stamps & Smiles as they are not complicated sketches but you can make the most incredible cards with them.

Here is the result of their latest sketch.......



I have started using up a lot of an old Xmas TSV that I bought about 3 years ago. It was a HOTP one & the green paper, ribbon, bell & sentiment are all from this set. The spotty paper is a magazine freebie. William has been coloured using a mixture of pens. William has then been layered onto card from my paper scrap box. I had to get hubby's help to create the flower... well you do need them sometimes.... I got him to drill a hole through my snowflake so I could add the brad to it. The brad is from Dovecraft, the 2 flowers are from Prima's Painterly Petals & the charm was created using jump rings from Bunny Zoe. The gems around the card are by Kanban & Papermania.



I kept the inside of the card fairly simple but it gives a great effect. I have to apologise for the photo of the inside... I was going for a nice diagonal effect but it just looks like I have taken a wonky photo lol!!! x Clare x

Tombow : N55
Whipers : Bright Red
MLPII : 21, 76, 82, 102
Promarkers : Ivory, Pastel Yellow

Fabulous card. Love that image and it's a great sketch. I may have to case it! I need to get some challenges done, but have so much on my plate right now, don't think that is going to happen.
