Too Cute Thursday


Here goes another neglected stamp set card. I actually bought this SU Sweet Shapes set because I saw some awesome cards made on the SCS site with it. But once I got it I played with it and I just could not get it to look like the beautiful cards on SCS. Frustrated I put it away to collect dust *frown* Last night I pulled it back out and was determined to make a cute card with it. I am pleased with how it came out. I watercolored the main images and popped them out. I sponged the edges with certain celery and added some stickles on the butterflies. I matted it with SU Marigold cardstock and did some faux stitching around both of them. Then I stamped the SU Vintage Violet cardstock with my Paisley background and sponged the edges. I added some hardware and ribbon to finish it off. I am really liking this resolution !! Just a few more sets and I have fulfilled it...now if only my weight loss resolution was that easy!!

You know how sometimes you see a card and you kind of suck in your breathe and then go "OOooooohhh" well this was one of those.
