Happy B-Day - SSS168

Hi all! And a Very Happy Sweet Stop Sketch Saturday to you too! 8-) Hope you all had a Wonderful week! Mine's been Busy Busy, but Good! 8-) Well, today I'm back with the latest  Sweet Stop Sketch Challenge, Yay!  And since it's the third Saturday of the Month,we have a fun spin for you too, so you know there's a Terrific prize up for grabs to one very lucky winner! 8-) Our spin this time is "Fun with Numbers" 8-) So without further delay, here's my take on Miss Korin's Fabulous sketch and the spin..
I printed out my Sweet little Flying Bear with Balloons image onto Flourishes Classic White and did  a a little paper piecing and colored the rest of this little Sweetie up with my trusty Copics. I cut him out with the help of my Classic Squares and Postage Stamp Nesties sets added a touch of shading with Tumbled Glass Distress ink while the die was still in place and popped him up with a bit of foam tape. For my mats and BG layers, I chose a combination of kraft CS from my stash, some Adorable dp's from Simple Stories Happy Day collection. To finish it all up, I added a fun MFT Die-Namic Simply Scallops border, stamped my Flourishes Sentiment onto layered TE Mini Tags die cut with Memento Rich Cocoa and added a bit of Fun Polka Dot ribbon from my stash!

And Here's Miss Korin's Awesome Sketch..

Can't wait to see what you all come up with this week! 8-) And as always, please, make sure to stop by and take a peek at the Wonderful creations the rest of the Super Talented Sugar Babies have put together for your inspiration.
