Piece of Cake - Truly Scrumptious Sketch Challenge

Even thought I'm a CTMH consultant, I'm not always thrilled over some of the Stamp of the Month's (SOTM) that I'm more or less forced to use. The February SOTM, however, is quite an exception. I didn't realize how much fun this set could be until I started playing with it.

Here I used a sketch from the Truly Scrumptious Sketch Challenge blog. What a cool sketch. Anyway, The card was fun to make and now, here I am ready to post it here as well as link it to the Truly Scrumptios blog and realized that I did not write down the extra challenge with the sketch of using buttons and bows, How could I have forgotten this? Well, it's too late to change it because it's been sold and out the door already.

The paper I used is from CTMH called Daydreaem and is  actually retired, but it went so perfectly with the birthday theme.
The stamp set, from CTMH, is called Piece of Cake and is the February Stamp of the Month.  If you scroll down or click here, you'll see the gift tags I made with this set.

The paper flower and leaves was made with punches and the Hand Stitching around the card was done with matching embroidery floss. 
Stickles was used on the cakes for sparkle.

Piece of Cake - February SOTM Blog Hop

Welcome to the February Stamp of the Month Blog Hop.

Oh My!!! Can you believe it's February already. Time flies when you're having fun. And boy did I ever have fun with this set. Unfortunately, I had a bit of a disaster with my card and am unable to post it. So, my gift tags are all you will be seeing today. But,  that's OK because I like the way they turned out.
Check back in a day or two if you'd like to see my card.

If you've come her from Dawn's blog, you're on the right path. However, if you're starting with my blog, just click on the name at the end of this post and continue through each one until you get back to mine again.

I used a nestabilities Label Four Die. I used the largest die and cut six out of white. I stamped the images with Memento Black Ink and colored with Copic Markers.

I then put the die back on and sponged around the edges with the desired color. Then adhered it to the same color of cardstock that I sponged with. Now, the hardest part of this whole process is free hand cutting the colored cardstock to leave a small edge around each tag.
I punched a hole in the top and treaded white ric rac through the hole.

I think they need something yet, but I don't have time to play with it. I think I may add either a small matching bow or button to the top of each one at the hole.

Please leave a little bit of Love for each of us along the way.
