CAS Colours & Sketches 11th Hour Entry!

 


I'm still working on getting the challenge schedule down and almost missed this one which would have been a shame as I love this sketch!

So many options with this one! I elected to keep my card very simple and somewhat mono-tone in grays, black and white. Again, I used an Altenew stamp set to create the blossom and added just a touch of sparkle with Swarovski crystals.

I'm in love with this card and so glad I didn't miss the deadline!

You're The Kind of Person...

 


Good Morning and Welcome! 

Today's cards turned out just beautifully! The floral images were created using Altanew's Peony Bouquet stamp and die sets. I love their floral sets... no coloring! Each area of the flower is a stamped image stacked atop another stamped image to create lovely shading and detail.

This card is being entered into 2 challenges today. 

The first is The Color Throwdown #638.


The second is Sunday Stamps SSC255 SPRING BLOOMS


Thanks so much for visiting :)

CLEAN AND SIMPLE BIRTHDAY CHALLENGE



It's been quite some time since I took part in card challenges... life takes odd turns but now it's turned back to me working on things that I love. I'm back to making cards and really enjoying every moment of it!

I recently purchased the Spellbinders Fragrant Flowers stamp set and some inexpensive water-based markers from Hobby Lobby. I've not had fabulous success with alcohol markers... I'm just a simple coloring girl I guess and this stamp set is perfect for me!

I stamped the flowers and the sentiment on a panel of white, completed my coloring and added this single layer to a black card base for a beautiful, simple Birthday wish!
