Just a quick post tonight so I can clean up my table and finish up a couple of Halloween cards I was working on this afternoon. I've had stampin' therapy two days in a row now and I'm feeling good!
This little card is going to several challenges.
The Paper Players #64 Challenge is to make a CAS card using animals or plants. Thanks Ann, for the CAS challenge. They're my favorites.
Featured Stamper Challenge at SCS. You can see Linda's (aka Morningsun47) inspiration card here. I used a different stamp and colors and left off the buttons.
The SUO (Stampin' Up! Only) challenge#28 is to use Fall Colors.
The Less is More #33 challenge, anything CAS goes. This is my third card for this challenge. They are almost half way to their 1000 submissions goal.
I inked the silhouette stamp in the My Friend set with markers, spritzed with water and stamped on Naturals White. Unfortunately, it didn't stamp well. So I colored the flowers and leaves with the markers. I was really disappointed with the way it turned out, but cut it down and made a card from it anyway.
Card Recipe
Stamps: My Friend, Short and Sweet
Ink: SU Markers (Cajun Craze, Always Artichoke, Early Espresso)

Such a beautiful way to say 'thank you'. Lovely card, Bonnie!
ReplyDeleteI love the CAS layout. And it is a great idea to focus that main image just in one corner! I find that stamp a little overwhelming, so I think a little is a lot here. Thanks for joining us at SUO Challenges.
