Less is More Challenge #403

Hello and happy Saturday.  It's time for a new challenge over at Less is More and this time we want to see you use metallic on your card. This could be metal objects, metal colours, foiling etc.  I have used some silver embossing powder for my metallic look!

We are sponsored again by the very generous Funky Fossil Designs.

Sarah has some beautiful stencils and stamp sets!

For my card today I used a dotted stencil and inked up the side of my card panel with versamark ink and used some silver embossing powder.  The flower is from Catherine Pooler Designs and I cut it out with my scan n cut and popped it up with some dimensional tape.  The sentiment is from Happy Little Stampers.

We would love you to join us!  All you have to do is make a CAS card with some metallic on it and link it up to our challenge HERE.  Don't forget we like to see lots of white space on your card.

WWC236 - Heidi's "All About Occasions" Challenge

Hello, it's Wednesday again and time for a new challenger over at Watercooler Wednesday.

This week Heidi is our host with an "All About Occasions" challenge.

For my card I have used a new stencil from Catherine Pooler Designs along with the "Toucan Do It" stamp set from CP Designs as well.

I sprayed the back of the stencil with a spray adhesive to keep it in place while I sponged CP ink over the top.  I stamped the cockatoo directly onto the card and coloured it in with some Prisma pencils.

Come join in the fun at Watercooler Wednesday.  All you have to do is make a  card for any occasion and link it up to our challenge post.  Check out the projects that the other artists at Watercooler Wednesday Challenges have created for some inspiration. We’d love to have you join us.  You have until Tuesday, 3rd September at 09.00am Melbourne Time or Monday 2nd September 5pm US Mountain Time to link up your project.

WC235 - Marsha's Masculine "Anything Goes" Challenge

Hello, it's time for a new challenge over at Watercooler Wednesday!

This week Marsha is our host with a Masculine "Anything Goes" Challenge.

I'm not very good at creating masculine cards so I find you can't go wrong with balloons!  I've used one of my new stamp sets from Uniko called "Balloon Bash" and stamped it using Catherine Pooler inks. The sentiment is from my all time favourite sentiment set from CAS-ual Fridays called "Shenanigans".

Come join in the fun at Watercooler Wednesday.  All you have to do is make a masculine card of any kind and link it up to our challenge post.  Check out the projects that the other artists at Watercooler Wednesday Challenges have created for some inspiration. We’d love to have you join us.  You have until Tuesday, 27th August at 09.00am Melbourne Time or Monday 26th August  5pm US Mountain Time to link up your project.

AAA Cards Challenge #147

Hello, it's time for a new challenge over at AAA Cards.

Our very generous sponsor is CAS-ual Fridays with a $25 gift code for the lucky winner.  Our guest designer is the lovely Angie Cimbalo with a stunning card for you.

For my card today I have used "Love Notes" and "Heart Beats" stamp sets from CAS-ual Fridays.  I started by stamping the love notes down the edge of my card panel in black ink, then sponged some colour over the top using Catherine Pooler Inks. I splattered some water drops over the ink then stamped the sentiment using the same black ink and foam mounted the card panel onto a top folding card base.

We would love you to join us, all you have to do is make a CAS card as per our theme above and link it up to our blog HERE.  Just remember we like to see lots of White Space on your cards!
