SIP BY SIP / PPA12 & CCC #29...


I've always been a sucker for anything retro...




Over at Pals Paper Arts this week they have a cool sketch challenge, and I've been wanting to use this awesome set again... so I also paired it with a 'new-to-me" challenge over at Colour Create!


This set is called Sip By Sip, from Stampin' Up! and combines 2 of my fave things, retro & coffee! I used Basic Black, Whisper White, Summer Sun and Real Red. I inked her up with Stazon Jet Black, except for her lips, which I inked with Real Red. I paper pieced her coffee cup with Summer Sun. The dsp is Night & Day Specialty, also SU! ~ I love that black & white houndstooth! The card is finished of with a piece of Summer Sun punched with a Martha Stewart border punch (one of my favorites) and tied with a Real Red grosgrain ribbon bow!


Thanks so much for looking, have a great weekend!
