Stamping 411: Saturday Sketch 209

I've been a lurker over on Stamping 411 for quite some time, but the challenges either get buried in my "I'll get to it eventually" pile, or I get inspired by it but I don't use SU-only stuff, so I can't play. Today might be the first time I've played AND made it SU-only. Here is the sketch:

I thought it would be a great design to use more of my Just Eat Cake papers, so I tried the sketch and made this:

Yeah, another one done literally to the sketch. I ended up modifying the sizes of the paper pieces a little because, as we all know by now, I am incapable of cutting two pieces to exactly the right size much less three pieces.

I've been cutting out that stamped image (from one of the soon-to-be released Hostess sets: Happiest Birthday Wishes) with a circle, but I just realized (!) it is designed to fit into the scallop punch (of course it is). I ended up cutting the black circle for under that scallop shape with my Circle Cutter that I keep stored under my cabinets. :)

That's it for this challenge. I'm off to stamp some more.

Thanks for stopping by!

    I had trouble getting the three pieces to line up properly also, a little adjusting was all that was needed. You seem to have gotten your dsp exactly straight. Looks wonderful.
