I thought I'd make it easy for the gals who run the CAS challenges and show all three of my cards on one post. No going from post to post to comment.
First up is
CAS Christmas where the prompt is tree.
I started with three layers of UTEE embossing powder on a scrap of cs and added glitter. The paper was too thick to cut with the SSS tree so I trimmed the edges and just cut the outline from green and glued it on. I found the star brad among my embellishments and have no idea where it came from. The SSS sentiment is cut from red foil, layered on white for stability. Here's a close up.
The prompt at
CAS Watercolor is sunflower and I used the PTI botanical block.
The image and sentiment from Verve are embossed with copper and the flower is colored with Zigs.
My favorite is for
CAS Mix-Up. We were to do stencil monoprints, and they have several videos listed on the blog to give you ideas on how to proceed. I played around with a couple ideas before I ended up with something I liked.
I made my own tattersall plaid by inking up the SSS grid stencil with Distress Inks in Rusty Hinge and Vintage Photo. When it was dry I reinked with Blueprint Sketch and aligned the stencil between the first stamping. The little dog from Gerda Steiner was laying on my desk and the colors worked beautifully with the plaid so I popped him up and added the sentiments from the same set. My choice is watercoloring and die cut.
It's been fun and I hope you like them.

Adorable collection of sweet cards...your holiday tree is so amazing!
Whoa, Bobby! I came here for your Christmas tree card and I get spoiled with three amazing cards covering the CAS spectrum of challenges! Your tree is gorgeous. Love the dimensions and sparkle. I’m a sucker for critters, so your monoprint puppy Card stole my heart. Great job! Thank you for joining us at CAS Christmas Tree challenge. x
Bobby, I was wondering what you used for the gorgeous tree - glitter with UTEE! It must be much more glittery and shinier IRL. The red foil die-cut sentiment and the gold star add a sense of festivity.
The sunflower card is very artsy with the copper heat-embossing.
The third puppy card is so adorable! Love that you made your own tattersall plaid using the stencil monoprint! It's perfect for the apologetic cute puppy.
Thanks so much for sharing the tree card at CAS Christmas! Hideko xx
