Sweet Stampin' Challenge - Sentiment As Focus

Hello and good morning everyone ---

I can't believe that it was only 2 weeks ago I was moaning about the lack of spring like weather, but I think it's finally sprung. Let's hope it's here to stay :)

So me dears it's onto my Sweet Stampin' Design Team card for you this week. Our theme is 'Sentiment As Focus' and don't forget you must include a stamped element on your card/project. I used a Woodware sentiment stamp and paper pieced it, I've never used one of these stamps before (apart from my girlie owl), but I definitely will again because I think it looks so dramatic and pretty. It was such an easy card to make too - 1 card base, 1 stamp, 2 pieces of plain card and 5 sheets of patterned paper. Cut, glue, stick - what could be easier!!!

Here's What I Did
I used a 7" x 7" cream card base. I matted and layered it with pale brown (taupe) and cream card and one of the sheets from my paper pad (the one with the elephant one it). The 'Just for U' and the smaller sentiment was stamped directly onto the paper.

I picked out 4  more patterned papers from the pad and I stamped the sentiment 'Just For U' onto each one and again onto some white scrap card, then everything was cut out. The patterned paper letters were glued straight onto the white card (this was cut out as a whole piece). The completed sentiment topper was then attached to the card base using foam tape along with a few complimentary coloured sequins.

Here's What I Used
Stamp: Woodware 'Huge Just for U' 
Paper/Cardstock (CS): Trimcraft 'Party Animal' Paper Pad, Taupe CS, Cream CS
Other: Sequins, Foam Tape
