MMSC62 - Two for One!

It is a rough life when you just can't decide between two images for your card - this is what has been happening for me with the Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge these last couple of weeks - so I have not one BUT two cards again...I cannot help myself

The first one of from our monthly sponsor - Angela at Sew many Cards. 

  I have also used the CS from our weekly sponsor Patricia from the Paper Temptress, on both cards  and they are fabulous to use!   You will see from both cards the variety of colours and if you could feel the DP you would know just how DIVINE they are!  I am very tactile and LOVE them!!

Who can resist this darling penguin - the closest I will ever get to one is at the Zoo and we have spent hours watching them - they are so entertaining!  I am sure this ice skating one would draw a crowd!!  I have embossed the DP and it has embossed deeply, which I am happy with, it was a challenge for me to use mainly CS as I L-O-V-E my DP's, but am convinced that a great look can be achieved with CS as well!

I have popped the snow globe up on foam tape and also cut out the penguin and popped him up on foam tape as well - you can see the dimension above!  You know I just had to add some shimmer with Kindy Glitz and Bling!!

I could not resist making a second card with this fabulous Teapot from 'priscillastyles" stores.  Again  I have used the CS for the Paper Temptress as my base card then relied on this DIVINE DP from SU....which worked so well with the 'wedgewood' look I have tried to achieve!!

I printed this gorgeous China Teapot on the white CS, cut it out, coloured it with SU Chalks and popped it up on foam tape onto blue embossed CS.  I used the Forest Branches Embossing Folder that I was sent from Grace, one of my dear friend as well as Design Team and Twisted Sisters...Thank you Grace!!

The side swirls are from the Doodle Parts Nestibilitie - I love the way these interlock, some paper piercing was added, just for something different - what do you think!?!

Here is this week's sketch - I know you are 'busting' to get creating.....remember - it is YOUR CHOICE - it is as easy as 1-2-3...you can check both sketches here
