A One Layer CAS to share today.
I started by masking off a panel and used Distress Ink and a Lavinia 'Laurel' stencil. The images are from Stampin' Up 'Dragonfly Garden' set of stamps. I painted them with the same Distress Ink used in the panel, mixed with a little water. The sentiment is a Woodware stamp.
I am joining in the following challenges:
A second card to share today, which I made for a friend's daughter a while ago and forgot to post on my blog. I know the birthday girl loves sunflowers and music, so I incorporated both in my card.
The image is a VERY old wooden Butterfly Kisses stamp, coloured with Promarkers. The embossing was done with a Crafts-Too 'Music Notes' embossing folder. The Joy Fold card is kept closed with a flower brad.
I added a flower inside, made with punches.

Two lovely floral cards. I particularly like the delicate stencilled one and the sunflowers are bright and cheerful for a dull day

ReplyDeleteYour Joy Fold card with the sunflowers looks so cute and cheerful, but I'm amazed by the CAS, WOW!!! It's so sweet, elegant and impressive!!! A fabulous inspiration, thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteTwo fantastic cards Liz, and the first is so pretty with the flowers over the masked panel made with the Laurel stencil, and in that wonderful pretty blue colour, then the second shaped card with the fun singing sunflowers, and the dry embossed music notes go perfectly also I love the bright and beautiful colours, and your friend's daughter will have loved this. x
ReplyDeleteTwo beautiful cards and love the amazing colours on the CAS one. ♥
ReplyDeleteTwo lovely cards but I have to say your first one is more than lovely. It is so pretty with its pale blue and your inking, stenciling and stamping. Is it one layer ? or have you cut your panel to fit your card exactly? xx
ReplyDeleteIt’s one layer. I put two strips of masking tape down the base card so I could ink in between to make the panel. x
DeleteTwo gorgeous cards.xxx
ReplyDeleteBoth cards are beautiful Liz, the joy fold with the singing sunflowers is so bright and joyful. I really LOVE the CAS dragonfly card with the subtle stencilling and those gorgeous delicate stamps. xx
ReplyDeleteTwo beautiful cards Liz, I love the singing sunflowers on the second card and the softness and colours of the CAS card.
