CAS(E) This Sketch #205

Today, I have a card to share that I made for

 CAS(E) This Sketch #205 designed by Chrissy Larson:

I have to admit that I found this sketch to be quite challenging!

Here's what I came up with:

I stamped my Altenew Adore You stamps on two panels using my MISTI --

once in versamark ink which I heat embossed in white and

once in Altenew Jet Black.

On my top panel, I blended PTI Harvest Gold and Berry Sorbet inks using my blending tool.

I adhered the top panel to the bottom using dimensional adhesive.

I diecut my MFT thanks die from two pieces of black cardstock

which I stacked together before adhering to my card.

and to play along, if you'd like.

Colour Throwdown 426

I'm very excited to be guest designing
 for Colour Throwdown for December and January!

Here's this week's CTD:

I was inspired my the plaid pillows in the photo.
And the deer on the on pillow reminded me that I could use my
new MFT Stamps set Forest Friends.
Here's my card:

I created the plaid panel along the side by stamping 

with several different line stamps from my collection

in Altenew Ruby Red, Moon Rock, Morning Frost and Delicate Golden Glitz.

I stamped the deer on my Forest Friends coordinating diecut
in versafine onyx black and heat embossed it in clear before colouring
it in with some Delicata Golden Glitz ink mixed with water.
I stamped the sentiment from Forest Friends in versamark and heat
embossed it on white on a PTI Mat Stack diecut.

Be sure to check out what the rest of the DT created
for this week's Colour Throwdown Challenge.

Reverse Confetti January New Release Blog Hop

Welcome to the Reverse Confetti January New Release Blog Hop!

We have tons of inspiration for you to see using all of the fabulous new Reverse Confetti 

stamp sets, dies, patterned paper, cardstock & inks, which are now available to purchase!

I couldn't resist making another card using Cured.

I started by blending some yellow and Flamingo Ink onto my Cloud White Cardstock 

base and spritzing it with some Rose Ink mixed with water.

I diecut the new Cured Confetti Cuts from Cloud White Cardstock and 

stamped the pigs from Cured directly onto them.

I coloured them in using my Zig Clean Colour Brush Markers and a water brush.

I also stamped the sentiment from Cured onto my background

and added another the "xoxoxo," which I diecut from black cardstock

using XOXO Hearts Confetti Cuts.

And I have a second card today to share, using Foodie Fun:

I created my background by running my All Heart Cover Panel Confetti Cuts

through my diecut machine like an embossing plate with Cloud White Cardstock 

and trimmed off the ends.

I added a strip of patterned paper from the True Love 6x6 Pad along the side.

I stamped the beet from Foodie Fun in Lime Green Ink and Salsa Ink

onto a Foodie Fun Confetti Cuts.

A button and some twine finishes it off.

 

  

  

Well, that's it for me for today.
