A CAS morning (!)

Hi everyone, I have had a CAS morning today and made a few cards inspired by the Less Is More challenge this week to use a 3-2-1 recipe, that is, 3 of something, 2 of something and 3 of something else. Also had fun using stamps I haven't used for a while!

This first card above is made using stamps by A Stamp in the Hand and Cranberry and Lettuce inks by Adirondack - 3 fruits, 2 colours and 1 banner.

For this card, I used a shaped card blank by Craftwork Cards, border stamp by Glitz Designs and word stamp by Stampendous, stamped using Denim ink by Adirondack - 3 gems, 2 words and 1 border.

I have stamped a heart stamp by Glitz Designs and heat embossed with Egyptian Gold embossing powder, little flower stamp by Penny Black and words stamp by Hero Arts - 3 flowers, 2 words, 1 heart.

I would also like to enter this card as my second entry into the ATS Addicted to [Gold] Challenge 2 to make a card using GOLD.

This card was made by inking a panel with Artnic Cinnamon and Umber inks, and stamping in Umber with a little leafy stamp from a set by Hobby Art, word stamp by Hero Arts - 3 words, 2 colours, 1 panel.

I used the Dots N Flowers stamps (Hero Arts) to stamp the flowers onto patterned paper and cut them out, stamped the stems and leaves - 3 flowers, 2 pearls, 1 ribbon.

Phew!!

Speedy Fox challenge 120

Hi everyone, Speedy Fox & Friends have a challenge this week to make a card with DOTS.

I made my background by inking with a few colours through different masks (including dots) and stamped with Sepia archival.

The red panel was made by embossing a piece of Coredinations card with the Sizzix Embossing Boutique with a Tim Holtz embossing folder.

I stamped the other Coredinations panel with stamps from the Vintage Blue stamp set by Glitz and added some dots with white distress stain and the dotty mask, toned down with some distress ink.
