A combo for a Spoonful of Sugar and Sketch & Stash

I think I'm getting caught up (think being the operative word here lol). I hope to be able to start blog hopping again tonight, I've missed visiting my favourite blogs this week.

woj-guardian-angel-pink
I've managed to get a DT card made and have combined two challenges again, ASOS challenge is gems - I've gone with pearls (for a change - not!!) and have followed the fab sketch on Sketch and Stash this week although I have gone overboard with the flowers lol. I have used this beautiful image from the new Whiff of Joy release - don't forget the new stamps go on sale on Sunday 22nd March at 0:00 +1 GMT. I have used these beautiful papers - called Exquisite (and Exquisite they are - thanks Karen xx) - the soft pink and peach shades are so perfect for this sweet image.

I made the lace flower by stitching a piece of lace then pulling it tight into a circle and stitching the edges together and popped a rose in the centre.

Lots of MSBP punching going on here lol - the inside is just layers of the left-over papers - still got to decide what I am doing for the sentiment.  I just wish I could work out why, although all the photos are taken one after the other with no changes in lighting or position, this one has come out a completely different colour to the rest!  Bizarre!!

Recipe:
Stamps - Whiff of Joy (new release) image, sentiment is Whiff of Joy General Sayings
Paper - Papermania Exquisite paper collection
Flowers - From the lovely Tina - thanks so much sweetie xxx
Flourishes - EK Success Flourish punch available to pre-order


Thanks for looking,
