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.

A vase full of orange blooms - a thank you card

 

One of the Top 3 for cards

at Pinkfrehs Studio

I made the Cut Above

at The Paper Players

Today's card was inspired by some challenges:

First, the November challenge at PinkFresh Studio, with multi colors inspiration and lots of leaves, and the theme of 'Thanks':

I used PinkFresh Studio 'Floral Vase' stencils and dies set.

The vase was colored with some distress oxide inks in shades of light blue (speckled egg; tumbled glass; salty ocean). The leaves were also colored with distress oxide inks (shabby shutters; peeled paint). The floral bouquet was colored with PinkFresh ink cubes (clementine; persimmon).

After ink blending through the stencils, I die cut the vase and the bouquet with the coordinate dies, and adhered to the card base, where the bouquet was adhered using some foam dots.

The sentiment is from another PinkFresh Studio set, 'Seamless Starburst Circles'.

For the final touch, I added some clear dots on the vase, and some green glittery dots.

The other challenges are also about thanks and gratitude:

A Thank You card with seamless starburst circles

 

Since the terrible massacre that took place in south Israel on Oct. 7th, I had a creavite block. I just couldn't. Now, as the war is still going on, and the kidnapped children, women, men and elderly are still held by Hamas/ISIS, I'm trying slowly to find some comfort in crafting.

The current challenge at The Color Throwdown was a great way to help me getting over this creative block. So I'm very thankful for CTD's ladies for the inspiration.

The bright and cheerful colors inspired me to make a happy and cheerful 'Thank You' card. I was also inspired by the shape of the pillows in the inspiration photo.

I used Pinkfresh Studio Seamless Starburst Circles stamps and stencil set, with some distress oxide inks (kitsch flamingo, mustard seed, bundled sage and rusty hinge).

I also stamped and stenciled another circle, die cut the circle and backed it with more layers of circles, and then adhered it on top, for some dimension. On top of this circle I adhered a glittery enamel dot in rust hues.

A Get Well card for a wounded policeman

 Since the war has begun, 11 days ago, I'm in a creative block. Just can't create.

But yesterday I went the hospital to visit a wounded policeman, who bravery fought Hamas terrorists, and saved another policman's live.

So I made this very CAS card for him. The stamp, whit the saluting soldeir image,  says 'We salute you', and the sentiment on the bottom says 'Quick Recovery'.

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).
