Day 6 of the March CAS-ual Fridays Release-Just Breathe

Happy Friday everyone!! Today is day six of the March CAS-ual Fridays Stamps release.

I created a card using the new Just Breathe Fri-dies.


I combined these new sentiment dies with the Casual Trees Fri-dies and some of the negatives of a new die that will be introduced tomorrow.


I started off this card by blending Distress Ink on a die cut piece of white cardstock. I then flicked mist in silver, blue and white over the front of the card.


When the mist dried, I adhered the panel to a white, A2 card front. I added the blue die cuts and the die cut tree next.


I then added the sentiment that I had die cut out of silver cardstock. The last step was to adhere the sequins with a touch of Diamond Stickles over them.

This sentiment, along with the full release, is available NOW in the CAS-ual Fridays Stamp Store in the NEW section. Use my code NORASENTME to get an extra 15% off your total order.

Day 5 of the CAS-ual Fridays Stamps March Release

Hello everyone!! I am here again with a sneak peek from the new CAS-ual Fridays Stamps release.

Today I am showcasing the new Noteworthy Fri-dies. You can use these dies as borders or making notepaper for your cards.

For my first card, I created a border with the die.


In addition to the new die, I used the Starlequin Stencil introduced on Monday and a sentiment from the Whole Shebang stamp set.


I added some silver stars that I die cut using the Fun-Fetti Fri-dies over the top of some of the border stars to make the card more festive. I tried to give it a masculine flair because I have a ton of birthdays coming up in my family.

My next card I used the Noteworthy Fri-dies to make a little notepaper piece for a pet sympathy card.


I created the background using Distress Oxide inks and a stamp that comes with the new Huggable Critters Fri-dies. The footprints are also from that set.


I added little Fun-Fetti hearts and a sentiment from CAS-ual Comfort.


This card was so fun to make and I plan to make a few more to have on hand for occasions such as this.

Below is a sneak peek at the borders:

Day 4 of the March CAS-ual Fridays Stamps Release

Hello everyone!! I hope you are all having as much fun as I am seeing all the fun, new products from the CAS-ual Fridays Stamps March release.

Today I am showcasing new Trellis Cover Fri-die with a shaker card. I also used the die set introduced yesterday, Sweet Friend and the stamp set Pretty Posies to complete the sentiment.


I have to admit that I am the WORST at making shaker cards but was determined to make this work. I am not going to go through the directions for how I created this because I know there are plenty of people out there that are better at it than me.


I will say that I added a frame around the edges to cover up a bit of a mess I made when adhering the shaker to the white, A2 card front.


The "friend" was die cut from shiny, rose gold cardstock using the Sweet Friend Fri-die. The "thinking of you" was embossed using a rose gold glitter embossing powder. I assure you it does match but had a hard time photographing this card so you could see that.


With all the trouble I had making this card, I LOVE the way it turned out.

This Trellis Cover Fri-die is now available in the CAS-ual Fridays Stamp Store in the NEW section. Use my code NORASENTME to get an extra 15% off your total order.


That is all from me today. Be sure to hop on over to the CAS-ual Fridays Stamps Blog to see some more incredible creations using this new die and to enter into a giveaway.

I hope you all have a FABULOUS day!!!

Day 3 of the March 2019 Release for CAS-ual Fridays Stamps

Hello everyone!! Today is day 3 of the March 2019 release for CAS-ual Fridays Stamps. I am showcasing the new Sweet Friend Fri-dies. For my project I created an encouragement card.


I started my card by used the negative of a panel that had been stenciled with the Tin Roof Stencil in lavender. I misted a piece of white cardstock using the stencil and then put a piece of white cardstock OVER the stencil to collect the extra mist that was on top, reversing the image.


While that was drying, I used the Tin Roof Stencil again with Moonstone Nuvo Glimmer. I covered the flower centers with Enchanted Stickles to match the lavender misted panel.


Next I die cut the "friend" sentiment using the new Sweet Friend Fri-die with purple paper and used the Somebunny stamp set for the stamped sentiment.


I took the misted rectangle and adhered to the card base using foam adhesive. Then I added the friend die cut, and the sentiment strip over it.


My last step was to adhere some sequins around the sentiment and use Cosmic Stickles for the dot over the i in "friend."

Here is a peek at what comes with the Sweet Friend dies:

CAS-ual Fridays Stamps March Release Day 2-Stencils!!

Hello everyone!! Today it is the second day of the CAS-ual Fridays Stamps March release. Today I am showing you some cards I created with their new STENCILS!!

My first card I used the new Curtis Stencil. I also am giving you a sneak peek of the hello die which is from the new Sweet Friend Fri-dies.


I used Distress Ink to stencil a rainbow effect on my card front.


I faded each color out so that I would have a large white space on top.


I die cut the sentiment out of black and out of white. I layered the white over the black so that there is a "shadow" behind the hello.

My second card I created using the Modern Petals stencil, Casual Trees Fri-dies and the Breathe stamp set.


I created an ombre background using the Modern Petals stencil and Distress Inks.


Over the top I added some pattern paper scraps, a CAS-ual Tree Fri-die that I had dipped in ink and a sentiment circle that I popped up with foam adhesive.


The last step was to add some sequins covered in Diamond Stickles.

Below are the new stencils that are being released:
