Yep, it's Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge again. This is my last week as guest designer and my grand finale card. It was such an honor and pleasure to work with Priscilla and so many talented team members. I will hate being out of the loop, but, as I said, I will still be STALKING all of you, so watch out!! LOL!!
If you'd like to join in the fun, please check us out at:
There is a choice of a CAS sketch or intricate sketch so everyone can have a chance to play. Once you start, it's addicting, so come be an addict with the rest of us!!!!
I used a combination of digital images from our sponsor, Sugar Creek Hollow found here:
I loved that I could combine several digi images together with this card. The framing, the oval, the sentiment and the teacup. How cooooool is that?
I used some new SU Poppy Parade DSP for this card along with Black and Shimmery Gold Card Stock. I embossed the teacup decorative elements and then sparkled the cup with diamond stickles. I used these fantastic, although hard to control, tiny micro gold beads around the framing and a little in the oval. They are so neat to use and I thought it was perfect for the gold in this card.
I used some black tulle sent to me in a RAK from Perkzi. Thanks Perkz - I knew this would be exactly what I needed when the time was right. And, I had a gold slider on hand to run the tulle through.
Used lots of gold pearls and some black pearls as well. I used the SU Vintage Wallpaper ef, but you can't see it in the photo. Added some flowers, paper piercing and tons of dimensionals for a heightened dimensional look.
I truly had lot of fun with this sketch and using the digi images.
Thanks SO MUCH for taking a looksy and hope you have a wonderful week!!

WOW....this is a super card. I love how you mixed all of these images together and used like a tea tag. But my eye is drawn to those little glass beads. I have always wanted to use those but have been afraid to do so. Do you mind sharing what kind of adhesive you use to get them to stay? Just a lovely card...you have made my images look GOOD!!!!

Wowzer! Pam, this is one spectacular card! Your digis look so beautiful together and those micro beads for framing are super. Are they now all over your craft room? LOL Sue's tulle looks fantastic and the slider is perfect. Great dp and a fantastic last card as Guest Designer at the MM.
That went fast and I'm sure they will miss you.

Hi Pam,
Thanks for the comment (and the vote!). I've been smiling all day! I'll miss seeing your creations on the MMSC post, but I'll still be stalking you and your wonderful creations here on SCS. Have a great day!

Pam your final creation is just AWESOME!! Love your colors and all those wonderful details. As usual your presentation is lovely. We are going to miss having your sense of humor on the team. Of course now our inboxes will be a great deal emptier!! You have been a wonderful Guest Designer and we wish you could stay, but we do understand family comes first. We will be looking for you to rejoin us in hopefully a short period of time. GONNA MISS YOU PRINCESS!! But at least now Linda can go back to being the undisputed FAVORITE.....

Pam it is so hard to believe that we are here with a final card already! I will miss your banter back and forth especially with Linda and Phyllis! Your creation this week is fantastic. I simply love all of your fine details! Wonderfully creative.

But, Pam! I just met you. You can't leave! Say it isn't so. You can still make cards for the MMSC, right? And you will, right? Every week??? If not, I will hunt you down in the gallery and I will find you. I'm not saying what will happen when I find you . . . but, I will find you. There!
Now that I got that off my chest, let me say that your grand finale submission is soooo lovely. I love the tulle and ribbon slider. And the petite roses are so perfect on this beautiful vintage card. The colors are really gorgeous together--the Poppy with the black and gold. Awesome combination.
Looking forward to your card as a "civilian" next week.

Ohhh such a luxurious card -and they red and the black- wink wink!! Are you thinking of lingerie when someone gets back from being deployed! See, I don't miss much!
Actually it's a lovely card!!! So many lovely pearls, and netting -and ohhh that poppy parade paper is gorgeous! I love how you you made the tea bit look like a teabag!!
I dunno - I think you must have $20.00 of fancy embellies on that wonderful card!!! Great job Pamalina!!! Love you girl!!

Very pretty Pammy! I owe you an e-letter. I was SO thinking of you earlier when I ALMOST used a whole row of embellies. Alas, they didn't quite look right, so I used ribbon. It was a CAS anyway. REALLY! True story!
