The Sugar Bowl #77

It's Kiki's turn to do the Sugar bowl sketch, and we have the additional option of love.


 I used this fab Leanne Ellis stamp, Be one Traveller, and coloured her using my promarkers.  The dp are a mix of Basic Grey Kissing Booth and Bo Bunny.  I added some red trim from my stash and instead of a tag cut out matching hearts from the 12x12 and 6x6 BG papers, punched a hole and tied a ribbon through.  Finally some black pearls.


One lucky winner of this challenge will have their choice of 4 stamps (or 6 stamps, if we reach 100+ entries) either from the new release or any stamps from the Sugar Nellie range at

And while I was at it I made another romantic card ...
I used Carnival Balloon and papers from BG Kissing Booth and Bo Bunny.  The image is coloured using my promarkers and I cut hearts using a Marianne Creatible die.  The were just dipped in glamur dust ... just a ickle!  I used a jornalling postcard and wrote my own sentiment ... I was thinking of rolos (don't know why as i can't stand them!) and listening to a Katie Melua song, Red Balloons, and the sentiment came to me!
