TSSC 161…

I am loving this set from the current SAB and have used it yet again in today’s card.

The sketch is from Techostamper and is a Blog Hop.  This means you can click on anyone’s card & you will be taken directly to their blog.

For my card I decided to use the “DSP – Love Letter” along with stamp set “Bliss”

Basecard – Riding Hood Red – 5 3/4″ x 5 3/4″ or 15cm x 15cm
Layer 1 – DSP – Love Letter – 5 5/8″ x 5 5/8″ or 14.5cm x 14.5cm
Layer 2 – Riding Hood Red – 5″ x 2 1/4″ or 13cm x 6cm
Layer 3 – DSP – Love Letter – 4 7/8″ x 2 1/8″ or 12.5cm x 5.5cm
Layer 4 – Riding Hood Red – 3″ x 3″ or 8cm x 8cm
Layer 5 – DSP – Love Letter – 2 7/8″ x 2 7/8″ or 7.5cm x 7.5cm
Layer 6 – Very Vanilla – 2 3/4″ x 2 3/4″ or 7cm x 7cm

I stamped the image onto Very Vanilla Cardstock using Basic Black Ink.  I then stamped the flower images using Riding Hood Red Ink.  I also stamped the word “Bliss” using Riding Hood Red Ink.

After layering the card, I applied Basic Pearls to the middle of the flowers.  I tied a bow using the Crochet Trim and adhered it to the card.

All in all a very easy sketech & a very easy card.

Today’s card is another from Mary Jo but this time it is a Blogger’s Challenge.  It is another Blog Hop, so be sure to visit all the cards below to see all their wonderful work.

I’ve also incorporated our group’s challenge into the sketch & that is to create a Sympathy Card.  This can be a challenging time for any family & a special handmade card can do a lot to let the person know you are thinking of them.
