CCMC717 – Cheerful Basket

It’s Thursday and you know that means it is time for a Create with Connie and Mary Thursday Challenge.  This week is a sketch challenge!  Check out all the ideas!

CHEERFUL BASKET

This bundle is SO cute!  I love the crafting supplies, the kitty…two of my favorite things!  So, I just HAD to order it!

Stampin’ Details:

• The base is 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 Thick Basic White, scored at 4-1/4 and folded.
• A 3-1/4 x 5-1/4 piece of Parakeet Party cardstock was stamped with the greeting in Memento Black Ink, then added to the front of the base card.
• A 2 x 4-1/4 piece of striped Butterfly Kisses DSP was added to the right side.
• Another 1-1/2 x 3-1/2 piece of polka dot print in Butterfly Kisses DSP was added on top.
• The basket was stamped with Early Espresso Ink on Crumb Cake and cut with the die.
• The basket liner was cut from Fresh Freesia cardstock with the die.
• The craft supplies were stamped with Memento Black Ink on Basic White cardstock and colored with Crumb Cake Combo, Fresh Freesia Combo, Calypso Coral Combo, Parakeet Party Combo, Light Basic Black, Light Smoky Slate Stampin’ Blends.  It was also cut with the Dies and added to the basket.  All were added to the front with Stapin’ Dimensionals.
• The kitty was stamped with Memento Black Ink on Basic White cardstock and colored with Pale Papaya Combo and Light Calypso Coral Stampin’ Blends, the eyes with Parakeet Party and ears with Fresh Freesia Blends.  It was cut with the Dies and added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
• A duo of the Fun Flowers Resin Shapes were added to the background for a little fun!
