Less is More - Sketch

Such a beautiful week gone by and time for another challenge at Less is More.  Our theme for this week is a Sketch Challenge.  I love these challenges as it always pushes me to do something I would normally not.  Here's the sketch and below my take on the challenge...

Super quick and easy card.  I used this sweet little cake stamp from Reverse Confetti and quickly colored it with Copics.  I added some color to the main image by matting each square.  I then added a bit of dimension with foam tape and done!

Looking forward to seeing what you come up with!

Addicted to CAS - Berries

Another week gone by...and another fun challenge starting over at Addicted to CAS!  Hope you can join us, our theme for this week is Berries!  I don't have a ton of options for this challenge...so I pulled out this cute stamp set and colored the cutest little guy!  Here's my take on the challenge...

I colored this little cutie pie with my copic markers.  Used this cute die cut from Your Next Stamp and used the inlaid die technique to add the main image to the card base.

Pretty simple!

Looking forward to seeing what you come up with.

CAS on Friday - Butterflies

Another week gone by...and we have another challenge starting today at CAS on Friday.  Our theme for this challenge is Butterflies!  This is a bit difficult for me since I only have one butterfly stamp and need to come up with something creative.

Here's my take on the challenge...

I started by die cutting my sentiment as I like to use the inlaid die technique.

I then stamped my butterfly in several colors.  It was a bit empty so I added a few stars and dots.

I then added the "Hello"  above the die cut and done...pretty darn easy!

Looking forward to seeing what you come up with!

Addicted to CAS - Masculine

Welcome to August...the year is already half over...wow...gotta start thinking about Christmas cards...but until then, we have another challenge starting today at Addicted to CAS!  Our theme for this week is to create a Masculine card.  A bit tricky for me!  Here's my take on the challenge...

I stamped this fun little guy, then masked him off and added the balloons falling around him.

I wanted to add a little bit of interest to his cloths, so I added some dots to his shirt.  My husband picked the colors and I colored him with Copics.

I added the sentiment in the cloud bubble with white embossing powder.  Lots of fun coloring!

Looking forward to seeing what you come up with!

Less is More - Pets

Another beautiful week gone by...lots of stuff going on, but finding time to play tennis with the husband.  Always a challenge!

Speaking of challenge...we have another one starting today at Less is More.  Our theme for this week is Pets!  What immediately comes to mind is dogs!  My faithful furry four legged friend.  Here's my take on the theme...

I tried a new technique for card.  I stamped my dog on the left then, stamped it again on acetate and stamped that on the card.  This gave me a mirror image.  The quality wasn't good, but I then colored the image in with Copic markers then outlined it black.

Pretty quick and easy card!

Looking forward to seeing what you come up with!
