Thanks Layout / Twisted Sketches

I am sad to announce that this will be the last challenge for Twisted Sketches. Anam has decided to step away from the scrapbook industry for a time and move on to some other aspects of her life. I wish her well in all her new endeavors. I have had so much fun being part of her team. She has given me many "twists" which have had me thinking outside the box and stretching my creativity.

The "twist" for this week is thanks. I am dedicating my layout to her! I would like to thank her for letting me be a part of her amazing design team. I had a blast!!!!!

Supplies used: cardstock - pink; patterned papers - Zac in Pop Star by Rusty Pickle, Rivoli by 7 Gypsies; border punch - EK Success; Copic Marker; chipboard sticker - K & Co.; Silhouette Studio cut file; alphabet stickers - ColorBok

Pink Happy Birthday

Today is my nieces birthday and I would like to share the card I made for her.

It is a quick and easy card as all of the circles are stickers. I basically had fun placing these stickers, with rhinestones on them, throughout the card, stamped a sentiment on black cardstock and matted it with pink. Tied some twine on a pink button and voila!

Supplies used - cardstock - pink, black, white; stickers - Glitzer Circles by Glitz; stamp - Inkadinkado; ink - a la mode by Hamptom Art; button, twine - my stash.

I just wanted to let everyone know I am leaving on a cruise to Alaska today with my Mom and sister. I have not had much time to comment on blogs this week and will not have access to my computer again until July 3rd, so I apologize in advance for not making the rounds to all of my friends blogs. I will catch up with all of you when I return.
