It's been a crazy week here at the Ledlow house. Today was the first time I had a chance to stamp...wahoo!!!
I found a few different challenges I wanted to play.......my first card is for the MMSC53 Sketch and the CTD92 - using Baja Breeze, So Saffron, Old Olive and Kraft.
I used the beautiful Life Set from Papertrey Ink. The Kraft CS was embossed with the Retro Diamonds Folder from QuicKutz. Following the Sketch I added some Saffron Ribbon with Silver Pearls on the side.
******************************************
My next card is for the Curtain Call #29 - using Summer Sun, Tangerine Tango, Bordering Blue and White. The Sketch is from the 2S4Y #52.
The Sweet Pea Set Set is from There She Goes. The image was inked with Memento Black and colored with Copic Markers. I added some White Cotton Lace, the punched borders, piercing and the Button with the Silver Pearls.
Hope you like it!?!?
Thank you for stopping by....have a wonderful evening!!! ~S~

(Generous applause!!!)These are both so lovely, Silke! And so many "Silke-isms" combined! Love the pretty lace with the silver pearls. And ... I have decided that I just don't have enough of these "silhouette" type stamps. I use my "Pocket Silhouettes" to death but need something bigger! Hhhmmm ... do we ever have enough stamp sets??? (giggle!) Hugs xxAxx
I love how creative you get with your ribbons and bows Silke! Love how you added the pearls to the ribbon tabs on your first card!
Silke, good to see you join the MM challenge. I saw you were at the dance party. You'll have to check my comments regarding you and your daughter dancing in secret - Is anything ever SECRET any more???? I LOVE your cards whether they are MM or not. You are one talented lady!!
Hi Silke, looks like Pam has something on you now....She is sending it to me shortly..maybe I will have to post it to the blog..you and your daughter are so cute..LOL Anyway, we can talk..I do take hush money..LOL Your card is just fantastic. Love the silver beads on the sketch elements and your images are so pretty the way you layered them. Thank you so much for playing the Midnight Madness sketch challenge this week and for helping celebrate out one year anniversary.

Really love both cards, Silke, but have to admit I like the more subdued colors on the first one! Your cards are always such an inspiration to me!
GORGEOUS GF!!!

My goodness Silke...I am amazed at how fast you get comments...not really, but I swear I just heard the bling that I have new mail and there I am 20 something to comment. At any rate, love this inspiration to me (selfish)...I have some new stamps kinda like these and you have given me ideas on how to use them. Once again TFS my friend!
Beautiful cards Silke! I love the soft, subtle colors of the first & the bright and bold on the second! Oh so pretty :)
Totally gorgeous as usual Silke! You always come up with the most beautiful cards. Hugs Viv xxx
Ah, Silke, both are gorgeous! I love the flowers you used on the CTD card, and I recognized Stacey's colors right away and that fun scallopy thing from Jen on your second card.....clean & fresh! You always make me smile!
Oops, I meant Kazan's sketch--sorry!
These are both gorgeous, Silke! Love the subtle (first) and the bold (last) colors!!

Love the piercing around the edge and although these are not normally my colours, I just adore what you've done with them!!! Stunning cards my friend!!!
