AAA Cards Challenge #148

Hello and happy Sunday!  It's the first day of Spring here in Australia!  I'm glad winter is finally over.

We have a new challenge over at AAA Cards and this time we have a sketch for you with the optional twist of animals.

Our sponsor is Craftyscrappers and they have a prize of 2 digi stamps for our winner!

How cute are those digi's!!

For my first card, I have used the cute Octopus and coloured it in with Prisma pencils.  I cut it out using my scan n cut and popped it up onto my ink blended strip using dimensional tape.  The sentiment is from the same digi set.

For my second card, I stamped one of the cute little reindeer from the "Reindeer and a Tree" stamp set from Gerda Steiner Designs and cut him out using my scan n cut.  I masked off the bottom of my card panel and sponged some distress ink and popped the reindeer up using some dimensional tape.

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!

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.

AAA Cards Challenge - I'm on the Design Team!

Hello and happy Sunday!  I'm so happy to announce that I am  joining the Design Team over at AAA Cards.

AAA cards is one of my favourite CAS card challenges and I was so excited when Jane contacted me and invited me to join them. 

 

My first challenge as a DT member is a one layer with the optional twist of Black and White.

Our sponsor is STAMPlorations and our Guest Designer is - Nancy (Nananas)

Be sure to check out Nancy's and all the other DT's cards HERE!

I immediately thought of the Boston Terrier stamp from CAS-ual Fridays called Nate & Friday.

This card took me no time at all! One layer and one colour of ink!  I added a touch of grey pencil under my image to ground him and stamped the sentiment from the same stamp set.
