Happy Mother's Day - SSS155

Hi all! And a Very Happy Saturday to you and Welcome to Week three of The Sweet Stop's Birthday Celebration! Yay! 8-)  We are continuing our Blast from the Past Challenges & remember, you get to pick your own Sweet Stop Sketch, so there's no reason not to play along!  You can use any of the sketches from our DT's creations or any previous Sweet Stop Sketch that you'd like!  And we have another Fabulous prize to give away this week too! 8-) So come help us Celebrate and join in the fun! 8-)
I printed out my Pretty SNSS Tulips image onto Flourishes Classic White and colored them up with my trusty Copics and cut them with the help of my Classic Circles Large and Small Nesties sets. I added a touch of shading with Antique Linen Distress ink while the die was still in place and popped them up with a bit of foam tape. For my mats and BG layers, I chose a combination of ivory CS from my stash and Dp's from Fancy Pants' Lilac House collection. My Flourishes Sentiment was stamped onto a layered hand cut tag with Memento Rich Cocoa. And to finish it all up, I added a Sweet Seam binding ribbon and Bow...8-)  

Here's the Terrific Blast From the Past Sketch I chose:

I hope you can play along with us at The Sweet Stop! Can't wait to see which sketches you will choose for our Birthday Celebration this week! And as always, please, make sure to stop by and take a peek at the Beautiful creations the rest of the Fabulously Talented Sugar Babies have cooked up for your inspiration. Leave them a little Love too, it's always Greatly Appreciated. 8-)
