CAS(E) This Sketch 191

Hello!

It's time for CAS(E) This Sketch Challenge!  I will admit that I was slightly intimidated when I looked at the sketch for this week. It had LAYERS and I find it really hard to create layers and stay CAS. In fact, I find it really hard to create layers, full stop! But, eventually, my terror wore off and my brain started thinking creatively until I came up with this CAS card, an almost complete copy of the inspiration sketch.

The sentiment is from PTI Botanical Blocks.I added some glossy shine to the little heart, for a little extra interest.

This week is my wedding anniversary. I made this card for my hubby. His favourite colours are purple and orange. :-)

Thank-you for visiting me. I hope you take some time to visit the rest of the design team. They always create amazing cards, so it's worth the journey!

Happy Anniversary, my darling!

Hello!

This week was my wedding anniversary. Unfortunately for the hubby, I was nursing my sick daughter leading up to the day, and then I was dying on the couch on the day itself after catching the bug my daughter had. This meant that no card was made for the occasion. Four days late isn't too late, is it? :-)  We've been married 13 wonderful years this year. We've been together for 19 years. Time passes by so quickly!

Here is the card.

Card is PTI Vintage Cream, SU! Soft Suede, and Crumb Cake. Ink is Bashful Blue, Night of Navy, Soft Suede, Crumb Cake. Stamps are PTI Heart Prints and Think Big Favorites #16. Button is PTI. Twine is Twinery.

I really like how it turned out. I am responding to the CR84FN colour challenge #63, and it calls for the colour "denim". My blue collection is severely limited, so I made "denim" by mixing SU! Bashful Blue and a dab of Night of Navy. I actually love the colour result, I may use it again. :-)  I'm also throwing my hat into the ring for the DT call at CR84FN.

I used a sketch from Retro Sketches #30. I turned the sketch upside down.

Thanks for dropping by.
