Addicted to CAS #284

I saw Vicki's card on FB promoting Addicted to CAS and since the code word is 'Floral' I made a card.


The flower is from Penny Black's Love Blooms, colored with Altenew Artist Markers.  The sentiment is from PB's Garden Trio.  I thought this would make a great anniversary card.

So glad you dropped by.

Seize The Birthday #306

With all the birthday cards I make I don't know why I don't enter Seize the Birthday more often.  I brought with me the right stuff to make a card for challenge #306 - Use a Frame. 


Both the frame and flower are from Penny Black.  The flowers are colored with Distress Inks in Tattered Rose, Victorian Velvet, Shabby Shutters and Pealed Paint.  The frame and card base are Ivory from Gina K with the frame layered three times.  The sentiment is from Spellbinders. 

Thanks for dropping by.

Freshly Made Sketches #681

A lot of different companies worked together nicely for today's card for Freshly Made Sketches

It started with Penny Black's Lovely Blooms and a flower I painted a while ago with Distress Inks.  Altenew's Ornate Nesting die was embossed with a SU folder called Timeworn Type and placed on a panel of Gina K Moonlit Fog cardstock that has been embossed with Altenew's Tiled Chevron folder.  The sentiment is from Pinkfresh Studio.

Thanks for dropping by.

Can You Handle the Pressure? March 25 and NBUS #72

I had a card front with a chartreuse embossed panel along the side in my Bits box for quite a while and when I saw the challenge at Can You Handle the Pressure? asking for your favorite color, I knew I had to finish it.

The embossing folder is Crystal Wall from Altenew in PTI Green Parrot.  There are so many shades of what some call Lime Green and while I love them all, my favorite is a color from Benjamin Moore called Wales Green.  My bedside dressers at the lake are painted with it and so were the walls of my former bedroom.  Is that an obsession?  But I digress.  Back to the card.  The flower is a new one to me from Penny Black called Love Blooms.  There are three different flower stems in the set.  This one was painted with Twisted Citron and Abandoned Coral DIs.  The sentiment is from PB.  

The new flower is making its way to NBUS and it's also the first time I've used the sentiment. 

Thanks for dropping by.  I hope you week goes well.
