Less Is More #364

It must be that February is a good start up month because several stamp companies and challenges are celebrating birthdays.  It's the 7th birthday for Less Is More and I wish them many more successful years as a wonderful CAS challenge.  Their theme for this challenge is Music. 

The staff is from PB and I added some red Stickles to the heart.  I couldn't believe how beautifully the sentiment from Altenew fit my card.

Thanks for dropping by.  You and your lovely comments make my heart sing.

Addicted to CAS #127

Welcome to another year at Addicted to CAS.  Our host Stephanie has chosen this as her word for this challenge.

I had all kinds of ideas but none of them were Clean and Simple and since this IS a CAS challenge I had to think even harder.  Please remember to keep your cards CAS.

I stamped and clear heat embossed the staff from CPD across the bottom of my card and added the sentiment from the same set.  The little church is from Sunny Studios that I colored with Zigs and mounted on some coaster board to give a little dimension.

Our guest designer Sue Symens and the Design Team have some wonderful cards to inspire you in this challenge.  Head on over to Addicted to CAS and check them out.  And if that's not enough incentive, Happy Little Stampers is sponsoring all our challenges and you can win a gc to their store. We hope to see your card in the gallery.

Just Us Girls #419 - Trend Week

I know you've seen it all over blog land.  Silhouette stamping.  That's what our host Lisa has chosen for Trend Week at Just Us Girls.

My NBUS SOA carolers were the answer to the required silhouettes.

I stamped the staff from the set in VersaMark on Dove Gray and dusted with Perfect Pearls for a barely there look.  The panel was inked with Distress Oxide in Faded Jeans and given an almost too liberal spray of PP.  Once dry, the silhouettes and sentiment were added with HA India Ink Black.

What silhouettes do you have hiding in your stash?  Pull them out and make a card for this week's challenge.  You may be chosen Chic of the Week and have a chance of being a guest designer like this month's guest Trina Pham.  Please go check out what our wonderful Design Team have created for your inspiration.

See you in the gallery.
