Overlapping Eggs

 Hello All,

Today I will be playing along with CAS on Friday and Festive Friday challenges. Both challenges are about Easter- and well..... I don't see how this card could get you more into the Easter mood. Here is my card for today, enjoy!

Created a stencil using an egg die cut.
I started in the middle and worked my way out using Easter colors.

Yes, this card is very colorful. Yes, this card has the same image multiple times. 
I would, however, argue that this card is CAS. Let me explain, Firstly, it is a one-layer card; Secondly, the image is consistent, graphic, and like I said earlier, a single item. Thirdly, and probably most importantly, the color. All the colors on this card are fed off of one another which offers balance and continuity. Plus, it took a second to make (well, okay, 5-10 minutes).

A short and sweet sentiment.

Vintage Style

Hello All,

Today I will be playing along with The Card Concept, Tic-Tac-Toe Challenge, and Festive Friday. Here is my card for today, enjoy!

I am usually not one to create vintage cards but I had this patterned paper background and thought I would give it a whirl. I distressed the edges with DI Expresso and Tattered Rose.

The vintage layered die-cut flowers frame the sentiment nicely.
I chose the sentiment stamp because of its scripty feminine quality.

The wooden hearts are tinted with Tattered Rose DOI. 
I thought the hearts would add a nice touch and extra texture.

Challenges Entered:

The Card Concept: Challenge #173- Vintage Style
Festive Friday: Challenge #FF0107- International Dance Day

Cat Scratch Crazy

 Hello All,

Today I will be playing for the first time along with Festive Friday. Their theme is all about cats. I will also be joining The Male Room. So here is my card for today, enjoy!

I am not a huge cat fan but this card just cracked me up! I have been inspired by others that offer similar cards but this one I think shows the intensity of our kitty. I am told cat claws are as sharp as knives. I wanted to illustrate that with the wallpaper, drywall exterior, AND gypsum interior being ripped apart by our furry friend.

The wallpaper is from a black and white paper pad which I ripped to create the texture of claws. I drew lines on the bottom of the cats hind feet to create scratch marks.

The cat itself is actually die cut out of black velvet.
I gave this to my boss the other day who always says this exact phrase when she is stressed out.
It makes me giggle every time she says it.

Challenges Entered:

The Male Room: Challenge #155- Black & White
Festive Friday: #FF0095- National Cat Day
