CAS-ual Fridays #116

Hello everyone! I am so excited because I was able to find some time this week to play along with the current CAS-ual Fridays challenge! The challenge is to use sequins and chevrons in your project.

I decided to use the sequins and chevrons to make this simple anniversary card:

This card features Lawn Fawn's "A Birdie Told Me," "Happy Everything," and "Happily Ever After" stamp sets, as well as Lawn Fawn's mixed sequins. The speech bubbles are both cut from patterned paper and attached with foam tape for a little bit of dimension. The sentiment is stamped in "Wet Cement" by Hero Arts Shadow Inks.

Thanks for stopping by! :)

Lawnscaping Challenge #31

Good evening! I've been meaning to post this card, but of course I wait until late at night. I should be in bed, so I'll make this quick!


I made this card for the latest Lawnscaping Challenge. The challenge is to make a card that incorporates coloring with whatever you want to use. I chose to use colored pencils - my favorite! Of course I had to use the Gnome Sweet Gnome set, so here's my card:


I colored the flamingos with colored pencils and made the "male" flamingo a darker color than the "female." There were a lot of first for me in this card. This was the first time that I tried mirror stamping and I think it turned out pretty well! This was also my first attempt at distressing paper! I found some sandpaper and I distressed the edges of the yellow paper and it was really fun! I might start using mirror stamping and distressing more often!

I also made this card for the latest CAS-ual Friday Challenge, which was to create a card based on a song. I obviously chose "You Are my Sunshine" and I think it's fitting because we've had some gorgeous weather here lately!

Well, thanks for stopping by! Good night!

CAS-ual Fridays Challenge #45

Good evening! I'm back with a card for this week's CAS-ual Friday Challenge! The challenge was to create a card using pastel colors and black. I immediately thought of a rainbow, so I made this card:


To make the rainbow, I arced a border stamp onto my stamp block! It worked great! I also added a little bit of glitter to the tops of the clouds and adhered them with foam tape to give them some more dimension. I like how they turned out!

I am also entering this card into Paper Crafts monthly gallery challenge. Their challenge is to make a card with bands of color. What's better than a rainbow!

CAS-ual Fridays Challenge #38

Good evening! I'm here to share a quick card that I made for the CAS-Friday challenge this week! The challenge was to make a card inspired by a movie. Here is my card:

Can you guess what movie I chose? The fox and the hound! The Create-a-Critter cartridge from Cricut worked perfect for this card! I'm so excited to send this to a friend. I think it's cute! :)

CAS-ual Fridays Challenge CFC13

Hello again! Wow, it has been a while since my last post. Hopefully I will get better with that! Anyways, here is a card that I made for the CAS-ual Fridays Challenge.



The challenge was to make a 4 x 9 sized card. Boy, that was tough, but it was a lot of fun to make especially with the fun cloud paper and my favorite Lawn Fawn stamp! Well, thanks for looking! :)
