Saturday Makes

Hello!

I hope you are having a good weekend....I have been busy this afternoon trying to catch up with my card making.  Here is what I made while the boys were at the cinema!

 
I made this card for the current challenge at Merry Mondays to use neon.  That had me a bit stumped as I don't have any neon inks or paints and couldn't find any papers that would fit the bill.  However, when I was doing a bit of masking this week I realised that my post it note was a neon pink and decided to use it behind my Memory Box bauble.  I put some WoS on the post it for a bit of sparkle and finished with a sentiment from Hero Arts.  Very CAS but I quite like the look.

I also wanted to make one final card for the WCMD challenges over at A2Z Scrapbooking.  It is another Christmas card for the Anything Goes (Challenge #2).


I white embossed the beautiful snowflakes from Hero Arts Designer Snowflakes set and inked with Tumbled Glass.  The sentiment is silver embossed from Hero Arts Decorate the Holidays.  I will also link up with the challenge over at Hero Arts in the Anything Goes category.

Finally I wanted to play along at CASology where the cue card is Splatter:

I took a break from my Christmas card making to use my splatter stencil from Tim Holtz inked in Festive Berries along with a headphone and sentiment stamp from Indigo Blue.  I will also link up at Addicted to Stamps where the current challenge is Anything Goes.  This will be my third entry at Addicted to CAS where the code word is Stencil.

It was quite a productive afternoon :)  I wonder where I can send the boys tomorrow to get more crafting time.....

Thanks for stopping by,

Sarah x

  15. Here's to having a day alone to craft. These cards are fantastic, Sarah. I forgot I have that splatter stencil. I'd better dig it out and join the challenge. No cute headphones, though, and I am too old for loud music lol

  21. Well, weren't you busy!! Firstly that bauble xmas card is CAS perfection! Just love that die and what a fab idea to you a neon post-it! I don't have any nice blue distress inks but after seeing your snowflake card, now I know to get Tumbled Glass. This is so pretty and love it with the silver glitter. Wasn't 'splatter' a fantastic cue word, this card is so funky and modern. I can just see some teenage boy loving this one!
