CAS(E) This Sketch 224

Hello!

How did it get to June already? We're almost halfway through the year and I feel like Christmas just finished!

I'm here with my card for CAS(E) This Sketch.

I used Mama Elephant Bear Hugs stamps and coloured with Copics.

Isn't this a cute sketch? I don't feel I've done it justice and I can't wait to see what everyone else makes with it!

I hope you're inspired to join in the fun this week!

Thanks for dropping by to visit!

CAS(E) This Sketch 158

Hello!

This week's sketch for CAS(E) This Sketch had me wondering for ages just what I would do with it. It's such a simple sketch, but those vertical stripes puzzled me. Then I had an idea! Yay for the mojo coming out to play!

This is what I came up with.

I used Mama Elephant Bear Hugs stamps and dies. I coloured in Copics (W2 & W4).

For those of you who layer easily, this sketch will have you bursting with ideas, I'm sure! I can't wait to see what you create!

Thanks for visiting!

CAS(E) This Sketch 121

Hello!

Wow! That week went by quickly! I'm back with a card for CAS(E) This Sketch Challenge. I'm using my favourite bears again.

Stamps are Mama Elephant Bear Hugs. 

I have a cold. I'm a bit weary, my head is thumping, and my throat is super sore. This is getting in the way of any creative blog writing... sorry about that! Add my cold to the weather (it's pouring rain) and I think it's time to climb into bed. When I emerge, I hope I've recovered some of my words to start visiting you creative crafty people and comment on your awesome cards for this week's challenge. :-)

Bear Hugs

Hello!

I've been playing around with Mama Elephant Bear Hugs. When I first saw these stamps I just knew I had to have them. My girls have two favourite picture books - Always and You're All My Favorites - both of them about baby bears and mama bears and love. :-)

This one I made for my 12 year old. She wouldn't read it in front of me. She didn't say anything afterwards. But it is on display in a prominent place in her bedroom. I think she likes it.

This next card I made for my 7 year old. She likes a good pun. She also forgives my amateur Copic skills. In fact, she told me that she LOVED the way I coloured the card. She's good for soothing my ego, lol!

The "beary much" part of the sentiment is made from Lawn Fawn Milo's Alphabet. It matches the Bear Hugs font pretty well. I'm adding this one to the Mama Elephant Stamp With Me April Flikr challenge "Make Me Laugh".

I think I may have better luck with watercolouring this set. Copic backgrounds aren't really my forte. ;-)

Thanks for dropping by to visit!
