SC no.1 & TS no.2

This is my entry for the Stampin Chic and Truly Scrumptious Challenges.

The sketch layout is from Truly Scrumptious. The challenge was also to include handmade buttons. I have done these using the new Clare Curd Signature Range stamps which have been clear embossed and cut out.

The Stampin Chic challenge was to do paper piecing on a card which included some CCSR products.

My main image is the lion Rory from Sugar Nellie. I have paper pieced his mane, tail, the watering can and the plant pot using a mixture of Core-dinations card and card from my local craft shop. I tried to cover the mane and tail with clear embossing powder but it didn't work very well so I added Anita's Clear Glaze instead!!

The background papers and Happy Birthday stamp are all from the new CCSR. I love the greetings stamps - so many to choose from - and as for the Big One paper pack, I'll be using it for ages!!!

Thanks for looking!!
