Sunday Sketch and Stamp

Good morning!!!! It;s the last day of vacation here and I'm ready for things to settle down and return to normal!!!! These past few weeks have been fun, but boy I need a break!
I have 2 cards to share with you today..one is for Sunday Sketch and Stamp and the other is for the Digi Bells DT.

I just loved the sketch this week at Sunday Sketch and Stamp!! I used this super sweet image from Elizabeth Bell along with Curio Basic grey papers. I distressed all the edges with scissors and ink. I also added lots of stickles! The sentiment is from Whimsy stamps, I gave it some sparkles too. Finally I added a few teeny tiny pearls to the edges. Please pop on over and play along when you can:)
Challenges....
Paper Sundaes...something new(Stickles)
Sentimental Sundays...Friendship
Incy Wincy...Distressing

This card I made using the sketch provided by the Dt call. I used one of my favorite Elizabeth Bell images from Whiff of Joy. It's a non-traditional Valentine and I am happy to be crossing those of my list already as it will be here before we know it!!!! The sentiment is from Whimsy stamps. I added 3 layers of ribbons a wide grosgrain, a medium organza and a tiny satin. I'm still excited about all my new stickles, so I added a bunch of sparkle! Finally I added some pearls and flowers.
Challenges....
Creative inspirations...Something new(stickles)
