Sugar, Sugar, Sugar

Here is my card for this weeks Sugarbowl Challenge, this weeks challenge is 3 and you can only use 3 different patterned papers and 3 different types of embellishments. If you use 3 different Sugar Nellie stamps you get 2 entries.

The embellishments I chose to use are flowers, buttons and ribbon. The stamps I used are Cheddar, Braveheart and Pringle from the soft centres range.

This is the front:

And the back:
The papers are by k&co. I cut the swirls on my slice and with a sizzix die, I didn't count them as embellishments as you are allowed to use coloured card and I cut them from coloured card. The sentiments I did in MS Picture It! Publishing.

And some close ups:

Love everything about these, the colours, papers, stamps but especially the sentiments, I have MS Picture it and Publisher but never used it. I will definitely go and have another look now.

How did I miss this Sarah, its stunning! Regarding the Slice, I've only tried it with a scrap of thick paper but tried various sizes and had no problems. Just hope it doesn't end up being shelved like the rest of my Die Cutters. I did use the repositionable spray sparingly so not to clog up the blade, think so long as the paper is a large as the machine and is held down well, shouldn't move around anyway! Enjoy your week and hope to see more lovely creation.
