It's So 'SWEET'

Hello Crafty Ones
Hosting our Photo Week Challenge
at Just Us Girls is Bobby

with this mouth watering photo.

I'm afraid watermelon isn't on my mind at present
(not at 4c and my wood fire burning nicely)

but it didn't stop me finding a perfectly suitable

piece of DP in my stash to make my 'Sweet' card.

I simply cut the dp on an angle added it to a

mat and card stock to match.

The sentiment is from Pink & Maine.

The Sweet stamp was heat embossed

with TH Worn Lipstick.

Added some coloured circles inking the

rubber end of a pencil and finished with 

variegated cotton.

Don't forget to pop over to Our Blog
