LPSC53 - {In Love} With A Sketch

Happy Monday out there!! How are we today?? I know I'm doing great and I have a fun project to share this morning! As you know Monday over here is all about the {Little Paper Shop}, and today we have a sketch challenge for you! Here is the sketch {LPSC53}:


I came across this fun inspiration over on Melissa's blog, and even though it was from last week I absolutely had to play along with it. Just such fun with all the textures and colors, really an amazing shot. Check out this GORGEOUS photo and let the ideas flow (photo is courtesy of A Creative Mint)!

So, for my project today, I started off by stamping this beautiful sentiment from the new set {In Love} in Memento Tuxedo Black ink on PTI white. I overstamped the outline hearts with Pale Plum ink and then cut the finished image out with Classic Circle Nestabilities, layered the scallops behind, and added clear Kaisercraft rhinestones on each scallop! I embossed the Pale Plum background panels with the D'Vine Swirl embossing folder. The DP is from Stampin' Up (Rich Razzleberry). All the specialty brads are Making Memories, the flowers and ribbon came from my stash (I think the ribbon is Amercian Crafts, and they have lots of cool new stuff out these days, Susana carries a lot of it if you need a peek).

Be sure to visit the LPS store blog and the other DT members to see all the inspiration with this week's sketch! AND, if you play along with our challenge you'll be entered to win LPS stamps!!
