Hey there Crafty Friends!!  It's Tuesday!!  Time for Team B to bring some inspiration over at Tuesday Throwdown Challenge #185.  This week's Sponsor is Robyn's Fetish!!  The Challenge this week is to make a card with a Card Topper!  I had never made one of these before...  Be sure to visit the Blog and see what the rest of the Design Team has come up with - very cute cards!!

I chose this wonderful Sunflower image from our Sponsor...  Here's my card...


I used papers from my Stash, colored up the image with Copic Markers, added a button and some twine and stamped a sentiment and then added it with Pop Dots.

This week the Sponsor at SSW2 is Pattie's Creations.  Head on over to her ETSY shop and check out her creations by clicking HERE.  This week's Winner will receive two free images!!

With Valentine's Day only a couple of days away, I chose to use her cute image "Sea Horse Love" to make a card for my daughter and her husband.  I haven't used your typical Valentine colors for this card, but it will do the trick anyway as my daughter (for some reason unknown to me) LOVES Sea Horses...hmmm...

First, I'll share this week's Sketch...


The center can either be a hexagon or a circle...

and here's my card...

Thanks so much for stopping by!!  Be sure to stop by Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2 and check out the rest of the Design Team's creations!!

Cutie Bug Chef from this month's release...



I fused papers from this yummy 6 x 6 paper pad from My Mind's Eye - "Hootenanny", just perfect for my cute little Chef who is colored up with Copics.  I added some tiny pearls to the cupcakes - YUM!!
I finished off my card with satin pink polka ribbon and white shear ribbon tied in a bow.
