a sweet farewell

hello again!
today is my very last post over on the sweet stamp shop blog! 
sniff sniff

i've had such an incredible time on the sweet stamp shop team, i can't put it into words! 
6 months have FLOWN by, but alas, it's time for new adventures, and new sweet talent over there!

anyway, i have 2 cards to share, both of which were inspired by THIS card, i found on the sweet stamp shop pinterest board! 

here's my first card:

swoon! i love the soft colors! and the stitching over the sequin - i've been dying to try that out for ages, and i'm glad i finally did it! i am in LOVE with the look! 

i lightly added some gold perfect pearls over the stamped sentiment to really make it pop! and the background was created with a stencil, some distress inks, and selective inking! pretty easy actually! :)

my 2nd card is a total 180! ha!

i used distress paints to create my FUN and FUNKY background, and then stitched three lines down the side. i added some grey and black sequins, and then colored in the sentiment with some copics to add a little bit more umph! :) 

both cards used the outline lower alpha stamp set, and both cards were inspired by Beatles songs!
Love Me Do and All You Need is Love. he he he!

so those are my cards! 
hope they inspired you to get crafty! 
thanks again for the sweet stamp shop for being so amazing! it's been wonderful!
enjoy!
