Hi everyone! It's Friday and it's time for another one of Taylor's Cupcake Sketch Samplers!! Before I get to today's sketch I want to announce the winner of the $10.00 gift card to Taylored Expressions.....Drum roll, please...random.org chose #34, MM9772 (SCS Screenname) as the winner! Congratulations! To see a list of all the winners and Taylor's Grand Prize Winner then head on over to Taylor's blog!
Here is my sample from today's sketch, TECC53. I just got a box of goodies from Stampin' Up! yesterday and couldn't wait to get this new set, Cute & Cuddly, inky! I am a sucker for a cute baby set...I'm not sure why as I am not having any more babies nor are any of my friends....but I go with it anyway!
Details: The cute teddy was stamped twice, colored with Copics and cut out. I layered one bear on top of the other with dimensionals. I stamped him a third time on this FANTASTIC new cardstock weight designer paper called Sweet Slumber and just cut out his tummy. The sentiment is from a retired Stampin' Up! set called Short & Sweet. It was punched out with word window punch and I added a Riding Hood Red button to hold it in place.
Now it's your turn to try the sketch. Taylor will choose the most clever, creative and cute creation from the submissions this weekend to be the Featured Cupcake Sampler next week. Your design and blog will be featured on her blog during Cupcake Friday. You're welcome to create something other than a card, but just stick to the sketch as closely as possible and you'll be eligible for the Featured Cupcake Sampler honors. If you upload your sketch to Splitcoast, use keyword TECC53 (for Taylored Expressions Cupcake Challenge 53). Leave a comment on Taylor's blog with a link to your blog or gallery upload so Taylor can check it out. The deadline to be eligible for the featured cupcake sampler is Monday February 2nd at 8:00 am PST.
