Today Your Next Stamp is the proud sponsor of Sunday Sketch & Stamp Challenge #14 – YAY! You can check out all the details about their challenges and join in on the fun HERE!

The sketch was a ton of fun to work with and after playing with different options I decided to make mine into a birthday bag since today is my 33rd birthday!!!

I’ve used the adorable little giraffe from the Wild About You stamp set and the background star image is from the Birthday Boy stamp set. I stamped it in a very pale pink so it’s hard to see in the picture but you should be able to click on the picture to make it bigger so you can see it better. I couldn’t wait to put on some of that pink jungle satin ribbon that I bought awhile back and just knew I would have the perfect use for it one day! All the edges are distressed as well and then I added some pink pearls to finish it off. I was in a total pink mood and I love the way it turned out!

Remember we are also sponsoring the EtsyInspired Challenge this week and YNS Challenge #2 is going on right now as well!

I hope you choose to join in all the fun challenges! I really find they inspire me to step out of my creative comfort zone and I’m always amazed with the different creations I come up with from all the great inspiration!

I’m enjoying some birthday vacation time right now in Miami Beach so check back for some fun pictures soon!

Have a Fabulous Day!
