365 Cards - #192 - So Sweet

Today over at 365 Cards the challenge was to have the word "Sweet" on your card. I was lucky in that I had that very sentiment in my Unity Stamp Set of the Month for May which was blog candy winnings from Sherry and I love the whole set. The image is from that set as well which I just love. I hand coloured the image using SU stamp pads with the aqua pen. I have not even done my card for yesterday yet but I will get it done before the end of the week I am trying to get as many vintage journals made as I can and I make them from scratch using the Bind-It-All. The local busy book shop in town has seen me at the markets and wants my journals and cards in her shop asap so I need to get some down to her, plus I have all my christmas orders to complete.

Okay that is it for me tonight I have also completed a card for Paper Blooms and one for my daughter Courtney who is feeling down at the moment.
In the meantime. . . .
Walk about your day with beauty.
The Gypsy

Supplies: All supplies used are Stampin' Up! except for the stamps used which are from Unity. Cardstock Pink Pirohuette and Whisper White, Bella Rose designer paper, Grosgrain ribbon, Pink Pirohuette, Basic Black, Riding Hood Red, Chocolate Chip and Kiwi Kiss stamp pads. Aqua Pen.
