It’s Thursday and time for our Create with Stamping Friends challenge! It’s a fun sketch this week!

PERFECTLY PEARS
Yes! I’m finally using my new stamp set, Perfectly Pears, that I won at the spin-the-wheel on the Stampin’ Up! Incentive Trip! I love that there is an entire suite of products for this…and the rest of my Suite just came, and I couldn’t wait to get started!

Stampin’ Details:
- The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Basic Beige cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 to form the base card.
- A 2 x 5 piece of Painterly Pears DSP was added to the left side.
- Another 2-1/2 x 4-1/4 coordinating Painterly Pears DSP was added on top.
- A 3/4 x 3-1/2 strip of Flirty Flamingo cardstock was added across the front.
- Hello was stamped with Memento Black Ink on 1/2 x 2 strip of Basic White and added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- The large pear and flowers were stamped with Memento Black Ink on Basic White. The inside pear with Darling Duckling Ink and speckled with Flirty Flamingo Ink. The flower centers were stamped with Flirty Flamingo Ink. Some Darling Duckling Ink was brushed on the edges of the flowers. All were cut with the Perfectly Pears Dies and added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- The outline leaves were stamped full strength with Old Olive Ink and the insides with stamped off Old Olive Ink. It was cut with the Dies and added to the top of the pear with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- A trio of yellow Low Profile Sparkle Dots were added to the background.

I love the dark background against these colors and this set worked great with this sketch! SO pretty! Check out what the rest of the Challenge Team did with this challenge over on Create with Stamping Friends.
