Less is More - Sketch

Christmas is nearly here...yeah....while super chilly outside, it is so sunny that it is not quite feeling like Christmas!  Guess we better take advantage of the good weather...it may not last!


We have another challenge starting over at Less is More.  This is a two week challenge, and our theme is a sketch.  Here's the sketch...and my take on the challenge.  Looking forward to seeing what you come up with!

I like making inlaid die cards because it is so much easier to mail.  So I did that with this card.  It was a bit tricky with all of the balloons, but worth the effort!

I used distress ink to color my balloons.  Stamped the sentiment and felt that it needed a bit more, so I added a few stars!

I drew the balloon strings and all done!

Here's a close up of the card.

Looking forward to seeing what you come up with!

Less is More - Birds or Feathers

Another beautiful week...though it has been a bit cool in the mornings.  Our tree is up and we are slowing getting some gifts to make it festive.



We have another challenge starting over at Less is More.  Our theme for this week is Birds or Feathers.  I had lots of ideas for this one, but in the end, I ran out of time and decided to go with this simple card.  Looking forward to seeing what you come up with!






Super quick and easy card.  I cut some card stock with this fun die from Lawn Fawn.  Then stamped my image and sentiment.  I added a bit of snowflakes to the simple grey background and done.

Here's a close up of the image.  I colored it with copic markers.

Looking forward to seeing what you come up with!

CAS on Friday - Christmas

Another beautiful day...not feeling a lot like the winter, but hopefully winter will arrive soon...we don't want another drought!  Hubby and I are off to play tennis then to enjoy a little lunch!  Yum!

We have another challenge starting at CAS on Friday.  Our theme for this challenges continues with Christmas, so if you still have a few cards to make enter them here!

I love this card, because it is super easy to make and lends itself to mass production, which is perfect for Christmas.  Simple stamping a some quick copic coloring.

Here's a close up of the card...a simple one layer quick card.

Addicted to CAS - Sparkle

We are excited about getting the tree up and decorated.  A bit afraid of how the puppy with react, but we'll see....should be fun!


We have a new challenge starting over at Addicted to CAS.  Our theme for this challenge is Sparkle.  Lots of different ideas for this one, but I opted to go for a non-Christmas card.  Here's my take on the challenge...






I stamped the main image and colored this little sassy character with Copic markers.  I then added the sentiment and a few of the little sparkle things.  I then cut this border and colored it with the matching copic markers.  Pretty simple!

Here's a close up of the image.  You can see I used the inlaid die technique for the blue border.  It makes it much easier for mailing.

Looking forward to seeing what you come up with!
