Raspberry Fizz Oh My!

My buddy Sara on SCS has a weekly color challenge SCA3C19. I have been trying to play, but finally got a chance this week. She challenged us to use the Raspberry Fizz color and patterned papers. Well, I have been hoarding the paper and decided to make something fun with it. So, I got out my Spellbinders Nesting Flower dies and this is what happened ...I used some True Black scraps to make the stripes in the background and another scrap of Raspberry Fizz for the sentiment. I think its pretty cute. Here's a closer view of the flower - I folded up the petals a bit and the whole thing is popped up on foam tape for some dimension.
Have a great Wednesday everyone! I will be working away at the sewing machine - hip hip hooray for Spring Break!

SCA04 Sketch

Sara is a stamping friend from SCS and she has some challenges that she's started up so I thought I'd play along.


The sketch called for 5 horizontal rows and a sentiment - simple. I like it. I took a cue from some monogram notecards I got printed once at Swoozies and did my version up with some ribbon scraps in my fav color combo - hot pink, lime and black. Sweet! What do you think?



It was pretty simple to make - I stuck some ribbon down with a strip of adhesive in the middle of the strips and the zig-zag stitched them in place with my sewing machine. A quick stamp from PTI's Faux Ribbon and there you have it!
