CAS(E) This Sketch 124

Hello!

The week has whooshed by and we're back to a new CAS(E) This Sketch Challenge with another AWESOME sketch! The second I saw this sketch, I knew just what I would do, and that involved closely sticking to the sketch, so no "off on a tangent" interpretations from me this week! ;-)

I masked off my white areas (I used washi) and set to repeatedly stamping PTI Note Niblets stamps in multiple colours. I removed the mask and stamped my sentiment (PTI Heart-2-Heart #4). I just LOVE how this card turned out!! I love it when masking works, and it makes me smile just to look at all that flowery goodness.

Yep, no question where I got my design from. It was the amazingly talented Chrissy's sketch, copied to a T.

I cannot wait to see how everyone is inspired by this one. I am sure there are going to be some fabulous interpretations!

Thanks for dropping by!

Fusion #7

Hello!

I've made a card for this week's Fusion Challenge. Once again I worked with only the sketch. I'd love to go back and use the inspiration photo, it's fabulous! My brain just couldn't come up with something that worked for it when I sat down to work on the challenge. Maybe I'll make another before the deadline!

I used PTI Wonderful Words: Hello and Heart-2-Heart #4. Colours are black and PTI Hawaiian Shores. Oh, the stripes on the hello are Mama Elephant Basic Borders.

It's a chilly evening here. I am making minestrone soup for my dinner. The kids turned up their noses at the idea of minestrone, so I'm cooking them sausages, sigh! My house smells so good with all this warm food. :-)

Thanks for coming to visit!

Runway Inspired Challenge #23

Hello!

As soon as I saw the photo for Runway Inspired Challenge #23, I just knew I had to make a card. Apart from the crazy handbag, the black and white with a touch of red theme appealed, as did the circles and stripes. Just an aside here - after seeing the DT examples, I was feeling slightly intimidated, they are SUPER this week. I got over the intimidation, mostly...  :-)

I made two cards, just to see which one I liked better. The first is my entry.

This is the inspiration photo.

 

Back to that handbag... I don't think this handbag would fit in my car. If I could fit it through the door, it would need a seat for itself! Do you think anyone would actually carry this ANYWHERE? I like Chanel, but I'm hoping this handbag was just for theatrical effect on the runway, LOL! I do want those shoes for myself though, I LOVE them. :-)

Back on topic, here is the second card. Same as the first, only more red.

Both cards use PTI Heart-2-Heart #4 and Mama Elephant Basic Borders. Colours are Black, White, and Poppy Parade.

Thanks for coming by to visit.

Hello!

Hello,

Third card for today. This will probably be it... I do have to make some dinner at some stage. :-)

Made in response to CASE Study #113 where Julia Stainton is the muse with this lovely card:

and CR84FN #65 with one of my favourite colour combinations:

I used PTI Heart-2-Heart #4 and #7. Colours are SU! Pretty in Pink, Very Vanilla, and Soft Suede (sentiment), and PTI Fresh Linen, and Fresh Snow.

Thanks for visiting!

Hello!

Hello!

I have made a super-CAS card for The Play Date Cafe Challenge #137 which is calling for a colour splash this week.

This is my card.

This is the first time I've used my new little PTI Heart-2-Heart #4 set. I think it will get a bit more use! Simple PTI White base, Tuxedo Black telephone, and SU! Brilliant Blue heart and sentiment.

It is a grey, dreary day here and getting colder by the minute. A fantastic day for some stamping!
