CAS(E) This Sketch 210 - Just Because

Hello!

We have a very cool sketch this week at CAS(E) This Sketch! I love the dreamy scattered leaves on the sketch and for my card I scattered roses, leaves, and sequins.

I was stamping this card while helping my youngest with homework. She was feeling cranky because she hates homework. She looked over at my stamps and said "Huh! How are those going to look like flowers?!" as I started stamping. Five minutes later she looked over and went "Hey! Where did those roses come from?!" She was still cranky about the homework, but a little sparkle of happiness took hold at the magical appearance of roses where previously there had just been blotches. :-)

I used Altenew Vintage Roses stamps.

I hope you're inspired to join us at CAS(E) This Sketch this week. The team have come up with some beautiful cards and I just know our gallery will be filled with gorgeous creations!

Thanks for visiting me!

CAS(E) This Sketch 206 - Hello There!

Hello!

It's time for CAS(E) This Sketch! This week's sketch is awesome (again)! Another one for me to put into my stash of sketch ideas for future cards. :-)

I made a one-layer card using multi-step stamping.

Stamps are Altenew Vintage Roses and PTI Scripted. Inks are Altenew (which are just lovely to stamp with).

Thanks for visiting! I hope you're inspired to join us this week.

CAS(E) This Sketch 203 - Cheers!

Hello!

Welcome back to CAS(E) This Sketch for 2017! We're starting off the year with an awesome sketch that I just know many of you are going to LOVE!

Firstly, I made a celebration card to ring in the New Year - Cheers!

I used PTI Propose a Toast and SU! Brushwork Alphabet.

And because I couldn't stop at just one card for this great sketch I made another. This card would make a pretty set.

I used Altenew Vintage Roses and Painted Greetings stamps.

I can't wait to see what you all make with this sketch! I'm sure the gallery will be full of gorgeous cards!

Thanks for visiting!

Altenew December Challenge

Hello!

Merry Christmas! I'm on holidays and I've been taking advantage of the luxury of time to do some cardmaking. My kids are happily busy with their Christmas gifts and I'm happily playing with all of my neglected stamps and inks.

Altenew's December challenge is A Year in Review, meaning we can choose any one of 2016's inspirations as our starting point. :-)

I chose the March 2016 inspiration to create my card.

I recently took advantage of the bundle package of Vintage Roses and Painted Greetings. I am so happy that I did! These sets are going to keep me busy for quite a while! :-) 

Thank-you for dropping by to visit me!
