Sunday Donuts!

Hello!
Happy Monday!  I hope you've had a great start to your week!  Mondays are grocery day at our house.  Well, almost every day is grocery day around here the way some people eat but we won't go there!  There may also be a rhubarb crisp currently baking in the oven!  The boys will be excited when they come home from school!!!!

I had a few minutes yesterday while the boys were out flying to work on a couple of cards!  I haven't played along with the Sunday Stamps challenge in far too long!  I must say I really do love having some extra time during the week to get some cards made up!

I really liked the sketch this week and decided to combine my Reverse Confetti "Donut You Know" stamp and die with the Cherry on Top DSP stack from Stampin' Up.  I originally had my card turned the other way but I couldn't get a sentiment to fit properly so I had to turn it landscape!

I added a little Glassy Glaze Enamel to my donut to give it that glazed look!   Oh how I love donuts!  I really think that donuts should be a food group!

Supplies:
Cardstock: Whisper White, Bermuda Bay, Early Espresso, Watermelon Wonder, Pool Party
DSP: Cherry On Top DSP Stack
Stamps: Donut You Know (Reverse Confetti)
Ink: Stazon Black, Versamark
Other: Heat and Stick Powder, Glassy Glaze Enamel, Stitched Rectangle Dies (Lil Inkers), Donut Confetti Cut (Reverse Confetti), Dimensionals

Thanks so much for stopping in today!  I hope you have a fabulous day!

CAS(E) This Donut!

Hello!

Happy Wednesday again!  I should have gotten my act together yesterday and gotten this post up!  It completely slipped my mind.  I hope you're having a great day!  It is a beautiful, sunny, warmish day in Southern Ontario.  The temperature is perfect for January!  We're heading into another cold snap so we will enjoy the sun and the warmth today! 

I love the sketch at CAS(E) This Sketch this week!  It was so fun and I needed another Valentine's Day card!  I really should be making my husband a birthday card since that happens first but I was in a Valentine's Day kind of mood!  

I totally love the the Donut You Know stamp set and Confetti Cut from Reverse Confetti!  It is super cute and worked perfectly for the card I wanted to make!  I decided using Red Glimmer paper for the hearts would work - but the hearts were a little harder to stick on than I had anticipated.

If you wonder why the donut looks a little funny - it's just Glassy Glaze Enamel!  I wanted my donut to have an authentic glazed look.  The glaze didn't work as well over the glimmer paper as it has in the past using regular card stock or DSP for the "sprinkles"!  Yes, that is another stitched rectangle you see.  Sorry - I love them.  I can't stop using them!!!!

Supplies:
Cardstock: Whisper White, Basic Black
DSP: Stacked with Love DSP Stack
Stamps: Donut you Know (Reverse Confetti)
Ink: Basic Black, Versamark
Other: Donut Confetti Cuts, Stitched Rectangles (Lil' Inkers), Dimensionals, Glassy Glaze Enamel

Thank you so much for stopping by today!  I hope you have a fabulous day!

Freshly Made Sketches #170

Hello!
Happy Wednesday!  I hope you're having a great week!  We've had some strange weather here again. I can't believe that it's the middle of January and we have no snow.  Nothing at all.  It's rather strange.  The kids don't mind because they play soccer outside at school on breaks so they prefer having no snow!

We have a great new sketch at Freshly Made Sketches this week.  The fabulous Jen Mitchell has created this beauty for us.  I love Jen's style of card making so much!  I spend a lot of time looking at her blog!!!  You should head over there and check it out!

I couldn't wait to try out my new "Donut You Know" stamp set and Confetti Cuts from Reverse Confetti!  I know that having a donut set would help with those "circle" cards that the FMS gals like to throw my way!!!  I thought I'd break it in on this card as well!  I added some Glassy Glaze Enamel to the "glaze" of the donut to make it look really gooey!

Supplies:
Cardstock: Whisper White, Early Espresso
DSP: Stacked with Love DSP
Stamps: Donut You Know (Reverse Confetti)
Ink: Early Espresso
Other: Donut You Know Confetti Cuts, Circle Garland Confetti Cuts, Glassy Glaze Enamel, Stitched Rectangles (Lil' Inkers), Dimensionals

Thanks so much for stopping by today!  I hope you get a chance to check out the Freshly Made Sketches blog and see what the Design Team has created for you!

Have a wonderful day!

Jen!
