CASology "DOODLE"

I began this card by stamping the crayon but decided I did not want to color, I wanted to doodle and that is what I did.  When waiting on the phone for a service person to help me I doodle and usually flowers and silly lines.  This is what I have done, drawing what came to mine or what picture was in front of me.  I like black and white cards so no color but I did select to take the photo on my work mat.  Guess this "doodle" card is a bit silly but then so is the cue word.  Will I send this card?  You bet my long-time friend of over fifty years will love it and probably recycle it to a friend.

Stamp - Lawn Fawn "color my world"

Paper - watercolor, Michaels white card stock, SU! black

Time Out Challenge #52 and CAS Mixup Card Challenge

Today I decided to enter one card in two challenges which I rarely do because I am not that confident on the ole computer.  Having said that I think this card will suffice for Time Out Challenge and CAS Mixup.  What I did first was rub distress ink on my mat and then picked up the color with an aqua painter. When the mister (husband) came into the room to talk I wasn't sure what image would appear when I applied the stamp to the water color paper.  It was okay but I then got out my distress ink markers and picked up ink with the aqua painter and added more color.  I chose to add some stenciling on the bottom with  distress ink and used the Misti to stamp the sentiment.  I attached my completed image onto a piece of SU confetti white.

CAS(E) this Sketch! #164

OMG Easter is almost here so I thought I would submit one card.  I made this card for my beginning card making group to introduce them to POP (paint chips, ombre and punches). The paper is plain white card stock, and then I punched five colors of  paint chips and attached them and popped the front two. Using my Copic multi-liner pen and a ruler I made lines around the card and left room for the simple sentiment.  That is it, pretty easy and the ladies loved it. This was not the only card I made using the chips and punches but this was the favorite, and they punched various shapes for over an hour.

Paper - white card stock (Michael's), paint chips (thank you Home Depot)

Stamp and Punch - SU!

Pen - Copic multi-liner 0.3

NBUS Challenge #6

This is my third entry into Darnell's challenge. The background paper is watercolor paper, distress inks and droplets of water. I die cut the poppies (NBUS) and kept the pieces all together and then sponged color. The image was attached with glue onto the background paper and then a layer of green card stock, both pieces punched on corners. This was attached to the pink base card.

NBUS Challenge #6

Stamps (2), Embossing Folder, Paper

Yesterday I taught "smooshing" to my beginning card making class (yikes) and this was one example I made.  Today I decided to finish the card and so I am submitting it to Darnell's challenge.  I used 140# watercolor paper and distress inks and the NBUS cactus stamp.  Today I trimmed the image and adhered it to black and tempting turquoise papers and stampd the sentiment.  The base card is NBUS SU! cucumber crush (cool color) which I embossed with my new NBUS embossing folder (I love it).  I touched up the cactus flower with a DI Picked Raspberry marker and a dab of water, Wink of Stella and an orange rhinestone.

Merry Monday #196 "Tropical" / NBUS #6 "Anything Goes"

I may be a hypocrite because I really don't like to make Christmas cards so early in the year BUT when this challenge came from Merry Monday I knew which stamp to use AND I could use it at NBUS #6. 

As usual I stamped on Neenah and colored with Copics. I die cut with a MFT die cut. SU! designer paper was used, and I think the green looks like waves, and attached to white card stock. Next I stamped the sentiment and then with mounting tape positioned Surfin' Santa.

I have had this stamp for some time and the company is no longer in business. When I first began taking Copic classes the instructor used this stamp company which was a local firm in Orange County California. When the company closed their doors they had some great "deals" and a friend bought this stamp for me. I have a large collection of Our Craft Lounge stamps and like using them.

CAS Mix Up Card Challenge March 2016

Stamping - Watercolor - Embossing - Die Cut

This is my entry for the first CAS Mix Up challenge. I chose a piece of background paper that I previously made using the embossing folder, ink and water technique. For the butterfly I used VersaMark and gold embossing powder and fussy cut. I die cut the background piece and adhered it to red card stock and attached to the base card. I stamped and heat embossed the NBUS sentiment. Lastly I attached the butterfly with pop ups.http://casmixup.blogspot.com/2016/03/cas-mix-up-march-challenge.html
