The Sweet Stop Sketch 147

Did everyone have a good week? It was a fast one here.  I think I have all of the kids well now, yippee.  I have got to get motivated to paint pirate murals in my son's room.  Anybody want to help?  I think I am bitter about having to paint over his jungle room, it was so cute and I guess I wasn't ready for him to grow out of it. 
It is time for another fab sketch at The Sweet Stop.  When I saw this weeks sketch, I told myself you have to try to keep it clean and simple.  Different for me because as most of you know I love coloring big images.  Well I took the sketch literally stamped everything, paper pieced and practiced doing a dotted background.  I am definitely not crazy about my card but I stepped out of my box so I will go with that.
The cupcake stamps are from Taylored Expressions called For the Love of Cupcakes.  The sentiment I picked up at Michaels and to be honest I am just too tired to go dig it out right now. 

The rest of the sugar babies have some much more exciting cards to show you so please stop by and see them:)
