CAS(E) This Sketch #94


Today, I have a card to share that I made for
 CAS(E) This Sketch #94 by Donna Mikasa:



For my card, I decided to pair some Webster's Pages patterned paper


I stamped the flamingo body in lavender moon ink, once on my card stock
panel and a second time on my die cut "you" (from Tag Me, Too Confetti Cuts).
Then, I repeated this process with the sentiment (also from Fabulous Flamingo).
I stamped the beak & legs in gold.
I die cut two more word die cuts and layered the three die cuts together.
I added some 4mm Pretty Pink Posh Marshmallow sequins as a finishing touch.

Here's a close up:


Visit CAS(E) this Sketch to see the rest of the DT's takes on the sketch 
and to play along, if you'd like.
You have until Thursday, October 2nd to link up your card.








I'm also linking these cards up to this week's Simon Says Stamp



Thanks for looking!

What a lovely card, I love the stamping work there! And your card for PTI blog hop is wonderful too, love the texture on the background! Thanks for your sweet comment for my blog, if you see a similar comment from me before, that is because after I click publish, it shows a error message, I thought I just do it again just in case that one didn't go through!
