Super Saturday!

Good Morning!
It's going to be BEAUTIFUL here this weekend! I LOVE when it's above freezing! THIS sort of winter weather, I can handle ;)
Earlier this week I received my new stamps from Taylored Expressions. This cupcake from Love is Sweet worked so well with Lauren's Saturday Sketch! Are you diggin' these cute colours? I found them on THIS site from the other day.
I used PTI white with Soft Sky, Barely Banana, Regal Rose and Light Purple Core'dinations.
Want to see what the other Saturday Sketch Girls have done:
Stamps: Love is Sweet; Cardstock: PTI white, Soft Sky, Barely Banana, Regal Rose, Purple Core'dinations; Inks: Memento Black; Accessories: Circle Nesties, Word Windo Punch, Heart Trio Punch, Xyron Machine, Glitter, Dimensionals, Copics, Circle Punch
I almost didn't get to play in the Our Creative Corner Challenge this week because it was the Emboss Resist Technique and my heat gun was not working. Finally found one and I got to work! I used Taylor's TECC51 sketch challenge for my layout. I stamped the Upsy Daisy image in Versamark and embossed with Clear Embossing Powder...then ran my brayer over it with Riding Hood Red ink.
Stamps: Upsy Daisy; Cardstock: Riding Hood Red , Choc Chip, WW and Candy Lane DP; Inks: Choc Craft,Riding Hood Red, Versamark; Accessories: Clear EP, Nesties, Buttons, Linen Thread, Dimensionals, Brayer
Thanks for stopping by!
