CAS(E) This Sketch 151

Hello!

It's time for a new CAS(E) This Sketch challenge! Did you enjoy the past two week challenge? Looking at the entries in the gallery, I'm in awe - amazing cards! I can't wait to see what you all make this week!

I made two cards this week. One is bright and one is monotone. I didn't follow the sketch perfectly for either, but it was definitely my starting point for both.

This first card used lots of stamping and I love it. :-)

I used PTI Peace, Love, & Joy stamps. Such a super little set!

This second card uses those antlers that I had no idea what to do with. They still make me giggle. Such a random image for a stamp set. My sentiment was very difficult to photograph, the gold reflects in all directions!

I used SU! Wonderland and PTI Happiest of Holidays stamps and PTI Spiral Notebook die.

Thanks for visiting! I hope you're inspired to join in the fun!

Happy Little Stampers November Sketch Challenge

Hello!

When I saw the new sketch at Happy Little Stampers, I just had to join in. I had an idea in my head, but somehow between head and hands, my regular loose interpretation of a sketch took hold. ;-)

I'm taking any opportunity to make Christmas cards at the moment. The situation is dire. I need to make about 50 in the next few weeks! Given my limited time, I'm starting to wonder if I can do it. This card is a candidate for mass production. I really like how it turned out.

I used SU! Wonderland stamps. I used SU! Smoky Slate card and ink and Tuxedo Black ink.

 Thank-you for dropping by to visit!

CAS(E) This Sketch #147

Hello!

I feel like I've gone off on one of my tangents with my interpretation of this week's sketch at CAS(E) This Sketch. Maybe because I was initially thinking of flowers and then went for a Christmas theme. :-)  I think you can still see the sketch in my card...

I used SU! Wonderland stamps and a little washi to create this card.

Tonight I'm at the end of year concert for my kids' strings ensembles. All of the ensembles, from 7 year olds through to 18 year olds, play in the final concert at school. It is made up of 3 junior ensembles, 3 intermediate ensembles, and 2 advanced ensembles. This time they are also playing a finale piece with all kids together (over 200 kids playing strings together!). I love these concerts, they give me goosebumps!

Thanks for dropping by to visit!
