A CAS square card with autumn petals

 


Sapphire Winner at Color Dare



Normaly, I don't make square cards, actually for no reason. This time I decided to make one, with some squared turned into petals, and a leaf on top, all in atumn colors.

To make the squared petals, I took a white cs and blended on it inks in hues of yellow and orange, then cut out squares and rounded the opposite corners.

The sentiments can fit to any occasion.


It goes for the following challenges:

Addicted to CAS - Autumn

Happy Day card - Just Us Girls + Altenew

 


A cas 'Happy Day' card I made for two challenges:

Just Us Girls #603 - with this photo inspiraion:


I really love the combination of purple hues and green. Somehow this color combination makes me happy :).

And this is exactly what my eyes were drawn to in the photo inspiration by Altenew:


Again, the flowers in purple/pink hues and the green colors of the leaves and the grass.

To make this card I used two different build-up Altnew stamps - one for the flower and on for the leaves.

I scored some lines in "L" shape, added a sticker sentiment, and some translucent purple dew drops. And my card is done!

Thanks in neutrals - a CAS card


A winner at Just Add Ink



Happy Saturday to all!

The Color Throwdown #CTD661 came up with a neutral colors, and it's quite challenging:


I used Just Add Ink #573 sketch for my card:


I used solid cs in colors of kraft, cream and black, and a dotted gray dp. I add a bit of darker tone of cream to the die cut leaves, a gray dot to the black flower's center, and a black thread to the tag with the sentiment.


I think I got the colors for this challenge, didn't I?

A CAS Thank You card

 



Hello crafty friends!

I'm still using my mixed media paper I made (Here), with the autumn colors.

This time, a CAS Thank You card.

Again for the color challenge at Just Us Girls #602:


And for the CAS 'Fall Fun' challenge at The Paper Players #559:

A happy birthday card, with squares


 I really liked the sketch at Freshly Made Sketches, so I made another card following this sketch:


For the colors I was inspired by the current challenge at Color Throwdown #660:


I stamped different patterns in the colors of blue, navy and green, trimmed it to smaller squares. The leaf was die cut from the paper I've made for the 1st version of this sketch (HERE).


I didn't add any other embellishment, like sequins or enamel dots, as I wanted it to fit for a male birthday card.

I adhered the element on a stamp shape pannel and then adhered it on a navy cs.

It also goes for Addicted to Cas #206, which is 'Leaf':

Just for You- a CAS mixed media card


ShowCased at Less Is More
September 2021


It has been a long time since I went on mixed media crafting, and dived into the world of CAS, but it appears one can combing these two :)

So here's my CAS mixed media card:


I used some Lindy's products (listed below), wattering them and then I used a plastic bag to spread the colors on a watercolor paper. I also flicked some gold spray above.

I die cut 3 stitched hexagons from the colored paper. I die cut a leaf and heat embossed it with Lindy's ep. I love the shimmer look of it!

I assambeled the elements, following the sketch, stmpped a sentiment in an orange ink and my card is done!

Lindy's products I used:

sprays: Grab a Guy Gold, Yellow Rose of Texas

shakers: Autumn Maple Crimson, Antique Gold, Octoberfest Orange

ep: Oakleaf Olive

It goes for September challeng:


More challenge:

Less is More - hexagons:

An autumn thank you card - Guest Designer at Color ThrowDown no. 659

 


I was honored to be invited as a Guest Designer at Color ThrowDown #659 challenge:


At first I felt this color combo is very challenging me, but then I just started with stamping the orange flowers, with red center spots, and went on with stamping the purple leaves, and I was stunned by the outcome! I really love it!

It has such an autumnal feeling!

I stamped kind of a small red flowers wreath around the flowers and leaves assembling, add a 'Thank You' sentiement, matted on a red cs.

I mounted the white cs with a red basis cs, and that's my card!


It goes for the 'Nature' challenge at Addicted for Cas:


It also goes for the 'Stamp It' challenge at Simonsays Stamps Monday challenge.


Thank you, CTD ladies, for inviting my to be your Guest Designer!

And thank you all for visiting my blog. I appreciate your comments very much.
