Just Us Girls #278 & Addicted to CAS #56

Heartfelt Creations winner; Patricia Arana



Nancy chose the wild card this week - a sentiment as a focal image.  

I inked up the corners of an acrylic pad and spritzed it with water.  I just used regular card stock - I like the effect.  I used my new PTI set, Friends til the End.  Easy enough card.

We hope you join in over at JUGS with your sentiment as a focal image.  



It is also Addicted to CAS challenge; Hugs and Kisses

We are being sponsored by
  

 I literally used kisses :) -- all of my stamps are at least 10 years old.  [This is why I can't bring myself to sell or give away my stamps.... you just never know when you might need them].  My ampersand is MFT and the sentiment is also from PTI Friends till the End.

How do you see Hugs and Kisses for your card?  Make it, and upload it over at Addicted to CAS.


Thanks for stopping by~

Both cards are so fantastic. And, the acrylic block background is one of my favorite ways to add a splash of color to a card. I really love that one.

Both cards are wonderful! I forget about using my acrylic block as a stamp, but what a striking look it makes! Definitely going to give this a try. The second card is a lot of fun. Love the kisses in the jar.

Acrylic block stamping is one of my fave techniques and I have used it on normal cardstock too. I like the effect. LOVE the jar full of Hershey's??? kisses. Is that right? Those big red kissing lips are awesome too! xx
