CAS-ual Fridays Stamps Sneak Peek "Floating"

Happy Sunday!!  I hope you are all having a nice weekend. Today is my husband's birthday. We celebrated last night at a French Restaurant  that he wanted to try. Everything was delicious-especially the profiterole I had for dessert!!

Today I am excited to bring you a sneak peek to "Floating" one of the new CAS-ual Fridays Stamp sets that will be released on March 31, 2017.



I had fun creating a simple card with it this weekend. I should not call it simple, though, because it took me over an hour to color!!


I started by stamping the balloon from the set onto a piece of white card stock. I then used Copic Markers to color in all the different flowers, as well as the basket.


I then took a brush and lightly brushed Distress Ink in "Tumbled Glass" around the background for sky. I apologize for the photo as it is pretty gloomy here and hard to get a great photo.


I mounted the stamped panel onto an A2, top folding aqua card and added a sentiment that I had embossed onto a piece of black card stock.


Next I used Glossy Accents, Stickles and Nuvo Crystal Drops inside the flowers to give them a bit of zing.

Like this sneak peek? There will be more from the Ink Squad all this week with the rest of the release.


On Friday, we will have a blog hop and every designer will use a new CAS-ual Fridays Stamp set in their designs. There will be prizes, fun projects and special guests. Please join us at the CAS-ual Fridays Blog for all the festivities!!

I thank you for stopping by today. Have a  FABULOUS day!!
