I {heart} you with a tag - cas card

 A cas card, with color combo that was a little challenging for me, but I really like how it turned out.

I had this journaling card for ages, from a 12x12 journaling page, in pink-purple colors. These colors are far away from my comfort zone.

As soon as I saw the challene at Inspire. Create challenge blog, with a not so usual color combo, I new this journaling card is perfect for the challenge!

The sentiment on the card says in Hebrew: "I {heart} you".

I die cut a stitched scalloped tag from a textured yellow cardstock. I trimmed the journaling card to fit and adhered it on the tag. I added some punched flowers in matching colors, and added glitter enamel dots in the center of the flowers.

I matted with pale blue cardstock and adhered to the basis.

Thank you for all you do - a card with scalloped banners

 

This 'Thank You' card is the 3rd 'pay it forward' card I've made (you can see the 1st and the 2nd), this time in yellow tones, with some kraft.

I die cut nesting scalloped banners and adhered them on the pp (which had a big white banner in the middle).

I really love the 'Thank You' font! so whimsical (Doodlebug design 'many thanks' stamps).

Inspired by.... - photo inspiration:

I was inspired both by the sketch and by the colors.

A heart full of thanks card

This is my 2nd card today, and also 2nd in the 'pay it forward' cards I'm making (you can see the 1st one HERE).

The pp had a big white heart, and I die cut a smaller heart in the middle of that white heart, and matted the pp with a mango cardstock.

From the die cut heart, I die cut a smaller heart, and inked it with distress oxide ink (saltwater taffy), and stamped the sentiment in the middle (it says Thank You! in Hebrew).

I adhered the small heart to the middle of the bigger heart with foam tape, and added some mat enamel dots in mango color, to match the inside of the heart.

I followed, loosely, the sketch from My Favorite Things challenge, replacing the hexagon with the heart:

Happy Birthday - You still got it! playing with shapes and solid cardstock scraps

 

Here's another card in my 'using solid cardstock' and 'using scraps' sereis.

I chose this colors combo to make a card that can be given both to male and female, hence no blings or flowers on it.

I was left with some small scrap of the stripes design, and used it for another card, but that's for another post.

All the elements were adhered using foam tapes, and so was the sentiment (Waffle Flower Happy Birthday).

A fluttery birthday card, with a matching envelope

It has been a while since I made cards with butterflies, and I'm not sure  why....

I used MFT 'More Brilliant Butterflies' stamps, with pale blue and dark blue inks. I added an oragne glitter enmal dot in the middle of the butterfly.

For the background I die cut a stitched square and inked an embossing folder with orange ink, and embossed the square, and matted it with another stitched sqaure, using dark blue cs.

The butterfly was adhered using foam tape, and so was the blue square.

A sentiment stamped in dark blue ink on the kraft background.

I also made a matching envelope. On the front I stamped the sketched butterfly in dark blue, and the back was embossed with the same embossing folder I used for the orange background.
