May 16: Paper Sweeties May 2016 Release Rewind!

Happy Monday!

Today is 
Paper Sweeties Release Rewind!
It's the last day of our May Release at Paper Sweeties.

The Design Team has more awesome  projects showcasing this month's stamps and dies:

Debbie Marcinkiewicz – Paper Sweeties
Jeri Thomas 
Jill Norwood
Jinny Newlin - *May Guest Designer* 

Nancy Salkeld (You are HERE!)


I got into a groove making my DT cards and so I have two cards today to share ---


I partially stenciled my background and then used the suit stamp from the new set, Best Dad, along with the dress, which I masked off, and the sentiment from Faith, Hope, Love.  The heart borders are from the new Sweet Borders Sweet Cuts set.  I cut them out of white and black card stock The banner is the Hello Friend stamp set and Be Happy Sweet Cuts.  I added some sparkly sequins from the Tuti Fruiti pack.

I made this black and white for the 4 Crafty Chicks Challenge.

For Following Challenge:



 My second card I sponged the sky then used patterned paper for the grass.  I used the two little kids from the Planner Series stamp set, Checklist and the little dog from the Planner Series Appointments stamp set and colored them with Copics.  The clouds are from Let's Go to the Beach stamps and coordinating sweet cuts and the sun is from Island Time stamp set and coordinating sweet cuts.  The sentiment is from the new Best Dad stamp set.


I followed the sketch at Sunday Stamps for this card.

For Following Challenges:



Our monthly Inspiration Challenge is still going on until the end of May so be sure and check it out as well and play along.  You might get a sweet $25 gift certificate to the Paper Sweeties Boutique and be one of our future guest designers!



Paper Sweeties Blessings!
