I obviously love this layout as I have used it twice before (coffee card and good-bye card). I needed some quick, but cute birthday cards. I bought these dimensional candle stickers awhile ago with the intention of making some cards, so they were the perfect embellishment. The sentiment is a Stampin'Up stamp. I added a few Stampin' Up sequin stars and washi tape to the hand drawn border. I think they are very festive. What do you think? Do you have a "go to" card layout?

As summer begins we have friends that are moving and so does my son. I needed a quick card, not much crafting time right now as we are preparing to move. I found the clip art of the bottle online, no source info with picture, and I thought it was cute and would be perfect. I lifted the layout from my previous coffee card. I love it...I printed three copies of the bottle and then layered up certain parts to give it dimension. The border is hand drawn. I added a few sequin stars and some washi tape, done! Sometimes simple is best.

Cute CAS card I made for a recent swap. I love how they came out. I used the Stampin' Up Bird Builder punch. all the colored card stock is from my scrap stash. Love when I can use up scraps! This card just makes me smile.
Back to graduation cards!

Just a quick share...
I have been challenging myself to do CAS (clean and simple) cards. Those that know me know how hard this is for me, I love the bling, glitter, pretty papers, etc. However, I am always surprised when I finish a CAS card at how much I do like it. And this one, well, I love it!
Here's the Details:
Image - Hot Off The Press, Small elephant clear stamp. Decided to do it a little different this time and did the watercolor technique using Stamping up Not Quite Navy, Basic Gray, and Pink Passion inks and a water brush.
Sentiment - came with the stamp set
Extras - Cuttlebug dotted Swiss emboss folder, ribbon, embroidery floss, Creative Memories Circle cutter, and tag punch.
Thanks for stopping by!

I like to challenge myself someties and CAS cards are a huge challenge for me, so...while my embroidery machine was doing the work I decided to try to get a few made up. Here is what I came up with:
I really like them, too.
Here's the Details:
Sentiment - Stampin' Up Feeling Sentimental
Papers - White pearl and scraps
Extras - Hexagon punch from Creative memories, Sequin Assortment from Stampin' Up, Color Box chestnut ink, pop dot dimensionals
And here is what I embroidered:
My son just made the varsity golf team and I thought he needed a special golf towel.
I hope you have a Marvelous Monday!
