SR#58 and Just Add Ink Challenge

I am shocked that I actually got to compete a challenge the day it was issued. Usually they sit on my desk for days and then at the last minute I throw something together. This card is for the Stampin Royaltychallenge #57 which can be found at: http://stampinroyalty.blogspot.com/ Thank you ladies for a fun challenge this week! This card also works for the Just Add Ink challenge this week! You can find that at: http://just-add-ink.blogspot.com/ Thanks ladies for a great challenge!
I used an old SU stamp set A Little Bit of Happiness.
Paper: Pretty in Pink, Melon Mambo, White all SU Ink; Melon Mambo and Pretty in Pink
Small SU Heart punch and black gingham ribbon were also used. I know it is hard to see the picture but I used Crystal Effects on the heart with the dots and the tiny flower.
Thanks for looking! :)

Saturday Sketch Challenge 187

Hello!
I couldn't sleep last night so I thought I would complete the sketch Challenge from: http://stamping411.blogspot.com/
This time I chose to use a stamp set that had no flowers in it. I am a farm girl and I love this Stamping Up stamp set....Farm Life.
I used Soft Suede, Cherry Cobbler, Whisper White and Basic Grey SU paper. I colored the image in with a blender pen and used a white gel pen on the clouds after sponging the sky. The button is tied on with linnen thread.
Thanks for stopping by to take a look at todays card! Have a great weekend :)
