Addicted to CAS Challenge #284 - Floral

 

 

I do enjoy being on this team!  It's such a perfect opportunity to make CAS cards 😀 

Having Floral as the challenge is even better!

I scored this die a few weeks ago and I totally love it!  I love the artsy feel it gives.  Add a fun embossed background, and this card...I LOVE IT!

Okay, it's your turn!  Come on over to ATCAS #284, Floral, and play along!  

The gallery should be fabulous~

Just Us Girls Challenge #777 - CASE a DT

It's the 5th week of the month, so that means, it's CASE a DT over at JUGS.  It is fun for the team to see how players are inspired.

 

Today, I am going geometrical.  This is one of my most favorite styles of cards. 

 

I was inspired by a photo over on Pinterest.  I made a self made triangle stencil, grabbed my [also self made] circle stencil and a an ArtLiner pen, and went to work!  Once I got the panel done, I added some texture with a coverplate.  

Yep, totally self made - I love it!

 

Your turn!  Come on over to JUGS #777, check out the cards created by the team members, and CASE one of them.  I'm looking forward to the gallery~

Elizabeth Craft Designs Day

Gosh it's the last Monday of the month already!  Craziness how fast time flies [when you are retired!].  Today I used [my favorite] the Layered Hummingbird Die Set. This is self CASE from my card last month.  With this one, I made it a mini card base, and changed up the colors of this guy.

I started with using the other Large Nature Stamp, again, leaving it just black so the fun guy could shine.

I cut out the pieces, glued him together, and WALA, he is ready for my card front.  I do love the detail of this Hummingbird.

I'll be back next month with more showcasing of Elizabeth Crafts Designs - Everyday Elements.

CutCardStock Day

Oh I have such a lovely colored card stock to share with you today!  Canvas Textured Flamingo!  It is so pretty!

I started with a mini base card base using this luscious color, cut a couple of other panels out of it, and also used the #130 Bright White card stock.  

While I don't have an actual unicorn image, I have to say, this color reminds me of one.  I also used a touch of  the fun Glitter Gold card stock.

Just Us Girls Challenge #776 - Anything Goes Stencil

 

Such an easy challenge!

 

I went with an older stencil in my stash and did negative stenciling.  What's that you ask?  I'll tell you...

I started by doing some rough inking on a card panel, then, laying down the stencil and inking it with black!  I'm kinda loving this effect.  Yeah, the colors aren't great for Spring, but the beautiful Everyday Elements Layered Hummingbird sure is.  Even with his golden wings~

The touch of gold glitter paper just adds to the fun impression!

Your turn!  Just upload your card [with stenciling] over at JUGS #776.

Elizabeth Craft Designs Day

It's Monday [again!] and that means it's ECD Day on the ole blog.  Let's see what's showing for today...

I once again used the fun Beetles & Bugs Stamp and Die Set and the Tag Variety Pack. The sentiment is from the Playful Sentiments Stamp Set.

A little mix up [by me] that I am showcasing this same set 2 weeks in a row. [sheesh]  However, it just goes to show how versatile this set can be [right?].  I do rather love the lady bug.

That's it for today - I'll be back next Monday with more.

The weeks sure are flying by!  I know I'm not the only one who feels this way either.  [Thankfully]

For my CCS card I am going BRIGHT!  That is why I adore Spring and Summer - I love the bright colored flowers and the vivid greens - yep my happy seasons.

On to the card:

Here are the colors I used:  Yellow Jacket, Light Yellow, Metallic Copper, Dark Teal, and a touch of Bright White.

I don't usually do this [link a different company], but I also used the fun lemon dies from ECD Everyday Elements Fresh Fruit.

That's it for today's card.  I'll be back next Saturday~

Today I am using the fun Beetles & Bugs Stamp & Die Set.

I used a paper sheet from the Colorful Collective Paper Pad, for the background panel.  I like the fun subtle pattern on it.  To ground the bugs, I cut some die cuts using the Tag Variety Pack.  [You don't always need to make tags. 😉]

To add some thickness and shine to the leaves, I added some Glossy Accents.

That's it for today's card.  I'll be back next week~

This is one of those times when Purple TOTALLY works!  While it's not my [favorite] color, I do like today's card.  I used Grape Jelly, Hydrangea Purple, Granny Smith Apple Green, and Sand Castle.

For the flower, I did use Hydrangea Purple, however, I also sponged on some ink over it.  It is actually a softer lilac color. Just FYI.

I hope you enjoyed today's card!  I appreciate you 💕

Just Us Girls Challenge #774 - Word Week

While I was harvesting my lemon tree, I thought that fruit would be a fun word for this week's challenge. 

I had the perfect dies to use too!  Elizabeth Craft Designs, Everyday Elements Fresh Fruit.  I'm in love with this fun set!

I thought the sentiment worked too.  Sick/fruit - yep, that works.  Vitamin C ya know~

Your turn!  Come on over to the JUGS #774 Challenge and show us how you use fruit.
