CAS-ual Fridays Celebration

Hello everyone and welcome to my last post for 2021!

We are celebrating over on the CAS-ual Fridays blog by sharing some celebratory cards to inspire you.

We are also sharing our favorite project of the year.

I've made a celebration card using the Celebrate sentiment from Shenanigans stamp set along with the Jacks stencil.

My favorite project for this year was a hard decision but I settled on this one using the Flowery Background stamp along with the Sweet Friend Die.

Be sure to pop over to the CAS-ual Fridays blog to see all the fun celebration cards from the rest of the Design Team.

Wishing you all a safe and happy 2022 and lets hope this new year is better than the last few!

Merry Christmas!

Hello, I'm over on the CAS-ual Fridays blog today sharing a Christmas card.

I'm sure you have all been nice this year but if you have been naughty, I bet it was fun!

I have made a fun Christmas card using the "Naughty'isms" stamp set and the "Naughty" Dies. 

I started by making a background piece using Alcohol inks.  I die cut the Naughty or Nice sentiment from white card stock and adhered that to the background piece with some liquid glue.

I stamped one of the sentiments from the stamp set onto a strip of white card stock and adhered that directly under the die cut. Then  I stamped and colored a stocking and some presents, die cut them and adhered them with foam squares.  I finished off by adhering the panel to a top folding card base.

I'm also playing along in the Watercooler Wednesday Challenge which is Marsha's Anything Goes.

CAS-ual Fridays stenciling and stamping.

 Hello,  I'm over on the CAS-ual Fridays blog today sharing a couple of fun stenciled and stamped cards.

I created my backgrounds using some of the new colours of Catherine Pooler inks with the Stars and Stripes Stencil.  I blended the two colours together using a blending brush and used that piece as a background for the bunny from the Somebunny Stamp Set.

I stamped and die cut the bunny and adhered it to the stenciled piece with some dimensional tape.

For my second card I stuck to the one color ink and stamped the sentiment from Hello Stamps directly onto my stenciled piece.

Less is More Challenge #455 - Winter Whites

 Hello, it's time for a new challenge over at Less is More and this time we are looking for Winter Whites on your card.

For my card today I've used a Christmas tree die from Memory Box.  I've had this die for years and haven't used it much so this is the perfect time!

I ink blended some Catherine Pooler "It's a Boy" ink and adhered the Christmas tree using liquid glue.  I think it needed a touch of colour to make the tree stand out.  Then I added a little bit of bling for the ornaments.  I stamped the sentiment from Uniko with some black ink.
