Sugar Nellie first impression

I purchased a" lucky bag" from Sugar Nellie a couple of months ago and here I am finally getting round to using one of the stamps. At least it is better than the years that the stamp that I used in the previous post has been waiting for its first impression to be made.

I am struggling at the moment with the fashion in cardmaking that requires the inclusion of a variety of different materials on a card. I am sure that this is because I have been concentrating on the Clean and Simple (CAS) style of late. Anyway, I hope to enter the Sugarbowl Challenge 39 which I will have to use a Sugar Nellie stamp and a blue colour theme. This is the card so far. I am not ready to submit it yet but will have a think, make any alterations/ additions and enter it tomorrow.



As I am on the subject of CAS, I was delighted to see that my Christmas card that I had entered into the Simplicity Challenge this week had been identified as a CAS Favourite of the week by three Splitcoast Stamper members. I was truly delighted. I am a member myself and regularly add my cards to my gallery on the website and this is where they had viewed it. SCS is an amazing place and I have not explored a tenth of what it has to offer. So thank you to k.dunbrook, Hobbywoman and JenMarie for your kind words.


Now.................back to that card................??????
