Can You Case It? # 70 Challenge - May Flowers

Hello Everyone,

Sunday is time for the Can You Case It?  Challenge and I'm playing along as a challenger rather than part of the Design team this week as its our team's week off.   Here are the challenge details.





I wanted to use more of my stash of products before our new catty goes live, so I've chosen to use paper from the Back to Black designer pack and I've combined it with Butterfly Basics and Label Love stamp set.




I've stamped the main Floral image from the Butterfly Basics stamp set onto Whisper white Card and cut it with the largest framelit from the Apothecary Accent set, a set which is on our retiring list and I've aded a butterfly using the Papillon Potpourri stamp set.  The Greeting comes from the Label Love stamp set and punched is punched with the matching Artisan Label punch, which are also products on our retiring list.  I;ve created Black and White borders for the patterned paper and used the Dotted ribbon border punch on the Basic Black strip over the Whisper White and mat the whole lot including the patterned paper onto a base of Crisp Cantaloupe.  Here's a closer look at the stamped image.



Thanks so much for stopping by today.  I hope you enjoy my card and will play along with a design of your own for the Can You Case It? May flowers challenge.

      Thank you Tina, actually I am pretty partial to the B & W combo with any contrasting colour.

Music Teacher Farewell // Paper Players #173 Shaped Card Challenge

Hello Everyone, It's a sad week for my daughter and her friends who have really enjoyed what the music program offered them at the High School this year.  Their very talented teacher will be moving on to a new school and they're having a little party for their last day of the Vocal ensemble practice which was an extra activity that he undertook with the students, as well as teaching them to play all sorts of instruments in lesson times. His speciality though, Guitar!  I have decided to enter this card into the Paper Players Shaped Card Challenge this week.  While not specifically made for the challenge, I think it's a pretty cool shape and fits the criteria.  I also think more people deserve to see this card. When asked to make a card for the group to give him, with that in mind I found some inspiration on Pinterest and came up with this card. The hardest part for me was getting the shaping right, and I had to call on my Artistic daughter to draw the edge as I d

JAI176 - Just Add Blokes & CCMC 2nd Entry

Image
Hi Everyone, I thought this weeks Just Add Ink challenge - "Just Add Blokes" was a great opportunity to get in and make a Male card .  For those of you outside Australia, "Blokes" is another name for Men. Today I'm using Mosaic Madness bundle set teamed with a greeting from Loving Thoughts stamp set.  I don't understand why, but the simplest cards seem to take me the longest.  I agonise over them, and yet I can make something much more involved quicker, when I have a clear vision in mind. I've taken the colours for this card from the colour challenge this week for Create with Connie and Mary so this card is doing double duty for both challenges. Here we are The cardstock is Berrmuda Bay, Basic Black, Whisper White and Smoky Slate per the colour challenge.  Here is a closer look at the Mosaics.  The Bermunda bay one is raised on dimentionals. This picture below gives you a closer look at the greeting. Thanks so much for stop
