Simply Sketched Saturday Challenge Birthday Card using Cupcakes and Carousels from Stampin' Up! UK

Stampin' Up! Sketch Challenge

Oh I am so excited to be back hopping with my girls again this week! We took January off, things were just crazy busy for all of us, but we are BACK this week with a fabulous sketch from the lovely Sam Charlton!

I knew exactly were I wanted to go with this sketch as soon as I saw it! Unusual for me, usually the girls set us a challenge…but this sketch is just lovely, although I have left off a couple of the elements. That’s one of the things I love about creating with a sketch, selecting the bits you love and changing the ones you’re not such a fan of!

I haven’t played with the Cupcakes and Carousels paper for a few months. This was one of the items I got to play with early as a Display Stamper for OnStage Local back in November, and I think I sort of over-dosed myself with it… and bit of time and separation later and I am back in love with it again, and paired with this sentiment from Carousel Birthday this card was almost finished!

but there was something missing, and I couldn’t stick anything down, until I had reached for the Lucky Stars embossing folder…and my card as done.

Question of the day: What do you do reach for when you card needs an extra something?

I will often grab an embossing folder, Enamel shapes, or sometimes the Gorgeous Grunge stamp set!
