Tuesday Morning Sketches #724

 Hello!  Thank you for stopping by.  I do appreciate your visit.  The latest sketch is up at Tuesday Morning Sketches and it's a really nice and easy going sketch.

My card this week features dies from the Sept 23 Craft Kit from Tonic Studios called Marshmallow Hugs but there isn't a marshmallow in sight on this card.  This is a really great kit and if you don't subscribe to Tonic Studios Craft Kits, I really urge you to try one.  The cute box they come in is packed with dies, stamps, card stock and extra goodies like embellishment mousse, drops, adhesive.  It's a great bargain.  Enough advertising, although I earn nothing, I just love the products.  Here's my card....


The craft kit is looks like this....


Do you see that cup sitting on top of the blue card stock with tabs on the sides and bottom?  That's the image I used cutting off the tabs.  Then I stamped a decorative design onto the bowl.  I then die cut the "liquid" die from ivory card stock.  Using one of the steam dies I embossed on that little piece and then inked the piece with yellow and brown ink.  I cut a slit so that I could slide in the spoon.  After it was put together I used Nuvo Drops in Buttermilk to make some noodles.

Then I made the crackers by using the Mini Rotary Paper Perforator by Tim Holtz.  I put my card stock on my Scor-Pal Mini and then cut the crackers.  I separated them and then using a paper piercer I punched the holes in the center of the cracker like saltines.  Then inked them a little for depth and shading.  

The paper I used is from Pink & Main and the sentiment is from Hero Arts. 

I do hope you'll join us and we'll see you over at the TMS blog.
