Hello, Kraftie Friends!

I just love Fall...colors changing...the cooler weather...

Here are a couple of cards for some challenges:

Card #1

Card #2

and Card #3 (even thought it's not really Fall Themed)

Challenges:

Card #1

1. CAS Colour & Sketches #392

Hello, Kraftie Friends!!!

I'm back with a few cards, inspired by Sketch Challenges...

I layered stamps from You Brighten My Day and Every Bit of Wonderful Stamp Sets (CTMH); added a strip of PP; stamped sentiment (Every Bit of Wonderful) on PP, inked the edges and adhered on card with 3-D thin foam dots.

Card #2 Merry Christmas

I used Every Bit of Wonderful and No Peekin' Stamp Sets (CTMH).

Card #3 Enjoy Your Day

I used a retired sentiment stamp (CTMH), and some die cuts from my scrap box. The swirls are from CTMH Cricut Art Philosophy and were colored with a Shimmer Brush. Butterfly die cut and frame were sprinkled with Distress Stickles.

Challenges:

Card #1

1. CAS(E) this Sketch #388

2. Just Us Girl #552: Word Week/Leaves

3. Simon Says Wed: Stamp It in STAMPtember

Card #2

Cut 2 of the same design and just add a thin line of adhesive on the edges. I used Dimensional Magic, but any strong adhesive will do the job.

Here's a card I created yesterday...
My Pearl Ex Watercolor CD was feeling rejected, so I had to come up with a project where I could use it!




I used a harlequin stencil, sprayed with brown ink on white cardstock and tore to size. Then I added pearlescent pink ink and stamped flower images (Rubber Stampede and Stampabilities) with pearlescent purple and lavender inks.
I stamped Poppy Poem (Penny Black) with Memento Tuxedo Black on white cardstock, tore it and watercolored the image using Pearl Ex Watercolor CD.
Finally, I layered the panels on Colonial White cardstock (cream-colored) and added two flourishes in between (cut using my Cricut and the Art Philosophy cartridge from CTMH).

I'll be entering this card in the following challenges:
1. Simon Says Monday Challenge: Anything Goes
2. Simon Says Wednesday Challenge: Stencil It
3. Word Art Wednesday Challenge #136: Anything Goes
4. Tyra's Challenge (at S.E.I.): June Hand Picked Challenge
