Hello!
I'm back with a couple of CAS cards which I have made to play along with some of my favourite challenges :)
First up is this happy orange card:
I die cut the Happy die from PTI from the top panel and popped it up over a base panel which I had inked in shades of orange distress ink. A white embossed sentiment from Uniko Studio provides a bit of contrast.
I will link this up with the current challenge at AAA cards which is Orange and also with CASology where the cue card is monochrome (I think this applies?!).
I have also made a one layer card to play along with Less is More where the theme is love:
I stamped the sweet Hero Arts elephants and coloured them in with Spectrum Noir pencils. I masked them to add some subtle inking in the background. The sentiment and hearts are also HA. As this card features animals I will also enter it in to SSS Wednesday Challenge - All Creatures Great and Small and in to the Nature Challenge over at Hero Arts.
I am back to work tomorrow but have enjoyed finding time to catch up on my crafting over the last few days :)
Thanks for stopping by!

Two fantastic cards Sarah. The first one pops and is so full of zing ... in fact I tried something quite similar the other day in orange but yours looks super classy - don't think mine will make it to the blog in it's current form!
ReplyDeleteThe LIM one is so adorable. That elephant duo stamp is perfect for the challenge and utterly cute.
Thanks for playing along. Sarah x
