Here to give you a lift - Stamp Simply #144

It's Stamp Simply time and this week I *did* stamp simply! Sharon has a sketch for us this week--you can see it at her blog and here's what she says:

June 18 - ssnotime144 - A Sketch Challenge - Today I've prepared a simple sketch for you to follow. Go CAS or fancy it up as much as you like, just use this basic sketch. Have fun and can't wait to see all your creations!

I decided to go sorta CAS. My base card is PTI's Rustic White (I love this and the Rustic Cream--just a little interest and not so stark as plain white or cream). My next element is a piece of Simply Chartreuse card stock stamped with Polka Dot Basics and Simply Chartreuse ink. The blue element uses Bitty Dot Basics with the balloon trio from Everyday Button Bits stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink, as is the sentiment. My cloud is made with MFT's Clouds Die-namics die using PTI's felt and the sun with MFT's Sunshine Die-namics die using more Bitty Dot Basics. Ribbon is Summer Sunrise satin and buttons are PTI Vintage buttons. Hope you like it as much as I do!

So, now it's your turn. Come along and play and take us up on the challenge--we'd love to see what you come up with. If you do, be sure to leave the link to your project on Sharon's blog using Mr. Linky. Please use the keyword ssnotime144 if you upload to a public forum. And don't forget to check out Sharon's fabulous sample and also the great designs from the Stamp Simply team and leave 'em some love!
