Unscripted and CPS sketches time again

You know I love working with sketches and so I always find joy in sharing my cards each week.

 This card is my Unscripted sketch card for this week. I am 100% Danish so it was really fun to use this stamped sentiment by Fiskars on my card.  I have liked this little saying for years but I didn't know it was a Danish Proverb until I bought this stamp set last week.  The red cardstock with the embossed flowers in it is Core Impressions by Core'dinations. All it took was some sanding so expose the flowers.

 And, since we are talking about a Friend's House, there aren't better papers for that then this new collection by  Nikki Sivils, Scrapbooker called We Are Family. 

 Now for my Card Positioning Systems card.  I have this adorable stamp set by Layers of Color and I thought it fit well here. 

 My favorite part is that wonderful sun image.  I stamped the images on my pieces of white cardstock with black Versafine ink and embossed them with clear embossing powder.  Now that they are embossed with the clear, they will resist the ink colors that I used.  I rubbed the papers with the yellow Marvy stamp pad and then sprayed a couple colors of the Shimmerz sprays.  See my materials list for the exact colors of sprays.

 And, I also want to share a Nikki Sivils, Scrapbooker card. The challenge the design team had was to create something to do with love and I created a card using the It's Raining, It's Pouring collection. 

 I just punched three sizes of hearts, distressed the edges a bit and added them to my card in layers with machine sewing down the middle.

And, for a photo...

My first Daffodil bloomed this last week! LOVE seeing spring happening ever though we are cold here.
