I hope you have had a good weekend....the boys are back at school next week so we finally started to get round to all of those chores that we have been putting off all summer :) However, I still found time to make a few cards.
First up is a green and gold creation using the colour combo from this week's Less is More Challenge. I couldn't come up with anything other than a festive card with these colours:
I die cut a lovely Memory Box bauble out of the white card panel and popped it up over some gold glitter card. The gold bow is snipped from another die cut and I combined it with a sentiment from Clearly Besotted. The green elements come from the scattering of pearls and dark green under the white panel.
Also I wanted to join in with CASology where the cue card is Write which put me in mind of SSS's happy mail stamps. I masked and stamped the envelopes in pastel colours and the sentiment in dark grey over the top with a scattering of grey die cut hearts.
I hope you have had the chance to get crafting this weekend :)
Thanks for stopping by,

This is so very lovely. Your masked tumbling pastel envelopes are just perfect, and make a nice backdrop for the bits of your sentiment. Thanks so much for playing along at CASology this week.
ReplyDeleteThat festive Christmas card is so pretty in green and gold! And I love the subtle, masked envelopes of the second card!
ReplyDeleteSarah, both cards are awesome and perfectly CAS! I really love the pastel envelopes so perfectly masked behind the bold sentiment...I must Pin this immediately! :) Thanks for playing along at CASology this week!

That's such a beautiful, shimmery ornament, Sarah ... rich and sparkly and lovely! Delicious CAS little letters ... love the look of the subtle colours with the dark accents! Hugs, Anita :)
ReplyDeleteOoooh wowee, not seen that bauble die before, it looks awesome with the gold placed behind it. Such a crisp and clean design too, and I like your choice of deep green.

Your ornament is lovely, Sarah, but I'm head over heels about the pastel letters behind the sentiment. Pinned for future reference. :)
ReplyDeleteI love that bauble die and really must buy it at some stage. Looks beautiful with that fine gold bow on top. And more perfect masking in your second card, your a pro with that technique!
ReplyDeleteLove that elegant and both cards look fab Sarah!
