CAS Birthday card

Hello everyone! Here is a real quick CAS birthday card for you today.

Stamp is one of my favorites from The Angel Company set Deco Designs. I stamped it in Palette Jardin Moss twice, I also did the same on the inside of the card.

Sentiment is from Papertrey, Ink and also stamped in Palette Jardin Moss.

All green cardstock is from Bazzill. I used my new corner chomper to round off the corners! The embossing folder used on the light green cs is from Sizzix. It goes so well with the stamped image! Lastly, added a small gingham green bow tied with the bow easy!

Thanks for stopping in!

Silver Ornaments

Hey everyone! I'm about done with posting Christmas cards! Yea - this is the last one and not one of my favorites either!

I used some of that silver metal tape that is self adhesive which I found in the garage that my DH had. It says Nashua on the inside of the tape roll and I think it's used for taping metal pipes and can be found at Lowes or Home Depot.

Anyway, I used the ornament die from Memory Box to cut out three of them and then ran them through a few embossing folders. Peeled the backing off and stuck them to the swiss dot embossed white cardstock. Added the silver cording for the hangers and the line between it and the sentiment. Sentiment stamp is from Papertrey, ink.

The card base is pinefeather from PTI.

Well, this past week of vacation flew by! Didn't get a lot accomplished either, but isn't that the way it goes? Have a great one and thanks for stopping in!

Country Christmas

Hi everyone! Here is a little card that surely says country to me. I guess it must be the hounds tooth pennant in the back?


or maybe it's the twine or faux stitching...

The little deer stamp is from Savvy Stamps and I inked him up in A*Muse Studio french roast ink. Could not resist using a red stardust pen to give him a red nose! The hounds tooth is a background stamp from Impress and inked up with pure poppy ink from Palette.

Spellbinders deckled nesties used to cut the deer out and the pure poppy layer behind. Kraft cardstock used for the base and dark brown to layer the pennant. I tied some twine around it and then glued on a button to the center of the triple bow which was made with the bow easy. I did the faux stitching with a Sharpie white paint pen.

Thanks for stopping by!

Winter Sparkles

Hi everyone! I came across a couple of challenges over at SCS and had to play along. It was during last weekends Virtual Stamp Night and the two theme's I did were: sparkles and create a winter wonderland scene. Here's my card.


Stamp is from Memory Box. I created the ground using a dauber, Palette Jardin Moss ink and a piece of paper. The sky is also sponged on with daubers using various Versamagic and Memento inks.

I used a glue pad to get the image sticky and then dusted it with crystal art glitter. I kept the photo a little dark so that you could see the sparkles.

Designer paper in the back ground is from DCWV. I framed the image using black cardstock and then stuck a labels 18 cut out in white behind it to keep things CAS.

I'm off to get my Christmas cards in the mail and start my cookie baking! Thanks for dropping by!
