On the Blog with CAS-Fridays Stamps

Happy June!! It is weird to write that as May went by so FAST. I am not complaining though. I am looking forward to some time off this summer!

Today I am on the blog over at CAS-ual Fridays Stamps with a festive card just in time for those hot summer nights.

I tried my hand at coloring with pencils on kraft cardstock. Hop on over to MY POST to see how I created this card. 

That is all from me today. I thank you for taking the time to stop by. Have a FABULOUS day!!

Day 2 of CAS-ual Fridays Stamps-Introducing the Salty and Margarita Glass Die!

 Happy New Year!!! 

Today I am popping in with two cards created with the new Salty stamp set and Margarita Glass die from CAS-ual Fridays Stamps. This is my favorite set from the new release as I am VERY PARTIAL to margaritas!!!

For my first card, I created a very simple card using the Salty stamp set. 

I started this card by partially stamping the margarita glass from the Salty stamp set with Tuxedo Black Memento ink onto the left side of an A2 sized, white piece of cardstock. I then stamped the sentiment using the same black ink onto the bottom right. I used Copic Markers to color the margarita in. I added some accents to the glass using a white gel pen and Diamond Stickles into the salt crystals.

I then cut the panel down and adhered it to an A2 card front that had some scraps of pattern paper that matched the color of the margarita. 

This card was really simple but I LOVE how it came out. Below is a peek at the new stamp and die set.

For my next card, I did a bit of paper piecing.

I started off by using the new Chunky Chevron stencil (being introduced tomorrow) with some kraft ink onto a kraft A2 card front. I then stamped the black sentiment using the Salty stamp it onto the front of the card.

I set this aside and stamped the margarita glass from the Salty stamp set onto a scrap piece of watermelon colored pattern paper, some white cardstock and two pieces of green. I used the new Margarita Glass die to cut out the salt, the glass and the pink for the margarita.

I fussy cut the lime out of the two colors of green and then adhered all the pieces together and then adhered the glass to the card front. 

To complete this card, I added some Diamond Stickles on the salt crystals and some Nuvo Crystal Jewel Drops in lime green.
