Thinking Of You.

 

Here is another CAS card using distress inks this time.  Once I had cut a mat I masked off areas to create the stripes with the ink pads.  I then inked around the edges.  Once this was dry I added a stamped sentiment from Papermania.  I Using a Stampin Up punch I punched a butterfly from glitter paper for texture and a dash of sparkle along with a couple of gems.

Just For You

I have coloured my very old Whoopsi Daisy (now Linnie Pink Designs) digi stamp with promarkers and added a tiny star gem for a necklace.  My two design papers are from a very old Papermania pad and the sentiment from Hunkydory.  I think the die cut border was a magazine freebie and cuts very well.  I added some pearls to the border and a die cut flourish behind the image.

Princess Tilda

I started this card by matting and layering my base card with soft mint green cardstock and old design paper from Papermania.  I then added a die cut strip with a piece of ribbon attached.  Next came a die cut doily which I heat embossed using a Brilliance ink pad and holographic embossing powder.  I stamped my lovely image and coloured her with promarkers and a bit of glitter glue.  After die cutting her with an oval stitched die I attached her with foam pads.  Finally, I found a heart shaped button and changed the colour by brushing with alchohol ink.  A bit of recycled ribbon through the button and the card is finished.

The Holly & The Ivy

The style of card I have always had difficulty with are the CAS ones but I have given it another go.  I hope it's not too fussy.  My stamped images have just had a bit of red sparkle added with a Sakura pen.  I embossed the base card with music and added a strip of design paper as I couldn't think what else to put there.

A funny card today featuring one of my favourite digi stamps from Bugaboo which I have coloured with promarkers.  The background paper is a very old one from Papermania (bought about 12 yrs ago).  I have added an embossed panel and die cut circle and a few card candi.

Time Flies

As you can see this is not my usual style, not cute and girly at all.  Still, it was quick and fun to do and I'm trying hard to master CAS cards.

It is a one layer card and I started by applying some distress ink to one side.  I then overstamped with Big Ben from Papermania.  Lastly I stamped the sentiment which is from a Debbi Moore magazine freebie.

This year I am hell bent on using my freebies and am not doing too bad.

Another digi stamp from Bugaboo which I have coloured with promarkers and added glitter glue.  My paper has been glued to gold mirri card and I added a panel of contrast paper and topping that with gold glitter ribbon.  The papers are from Papermania.  A chipboard present finishes this card.

This time I have made a male card following the great sketch.  The black panel has been embossed with circles.  The image has been coloured with promarkers and a bit of crystal glaze added to the headlights.  If you look carefully you will spot some fabby VW ribbon (pity most of it is hiding).  A couple of brads at the top of the panel finishes the card.  Hope you like it, thanks for looking.
