A Couple of New Challenges

I took some time on Saturday to create a card for a couple of new challenges I found.

I started with Loll & Bonnie's new monthly CAS Watercolour Card Challenge; Autumn card.  I first read about this challenge on Loll's blog and read wrong - I thought it was ghosting as the additional requirement [whoops].  That said, I am still entering this since I did use Autumn colors.  The ghosting effect is just a bonus ;).  I am also entering this into Kat Scrappiness World Card Making Day Challenge; anything goes.  I used a Gina Marie Design, Scallop Stitched Rectangle Die that I got from her store. [Her store has amazing prices I have to say]  I rather like this layout using both pieces of the die.  I also used [my favorite] Dylusions Spray Ink.  I have so much fun with that product, the vivid color is just amazing.  I used CUTplorations Happy & Birthday Word Dies. I am also adding this into Addicted to CAS - watercoloring, and the CAS Mix Up; ghosting.

Fun Challenges! 


Thanks for stopping by~
