CFC #47 Again!

So I had to make another Easter card this morning and I am obsessed with grey and yellow right now! If you follow me on Pinterest, you know just how obsessed I am! This is for CAS-ual Fridays what you'd find in an Easter basket challenge.

CFC #47 Something you'd find in your Easter basket!

This week's challenge at CAS-ual Fridays was to make a card featuring something you'd find in your Easter basket. I just love Papertrey Ink's jar collection and they have the cutest Easter themed stamps in the spring set!

Happy Easter and have a great weekend everyone!

CFC #46 Name that Tune

This week's CAS-ual Fridays  challenge was to make a card with a song title or lyrics, I chose "You are my sunshine" and here it is!

I used a paint dabber to cover an oval chip board and then added this embellishment flag and tied on some twine. I've been really in to chevron stripes lately and I love this pink pattern with the blue and brown together! Thanks for visiting!

CFC #45 The Bold and The Beautiful!

This week's CAS-ual Fridays challenge is to use pastels with black. So I don't often think of black and pastels together, but I have to say that it's quite striking! I love it! I started with a butterfly cut out of grunge paper and then put crackle paint on it then aged photo ink and rhinestones. Then I used embossing powder to add the "Merci" and lastly added the scalloped border. Oh wait, and at the last minute I added light blue glimmer mist...

It's a beautiful day in New England so it's time to enjoy the perfect weather outside! Enjoy your weekend!

CAS-ual Fridays #41- Jest for the Pun of it!

This week's challenge at CAS-ual Fridays is to make a card with a play on words or a pun.

I chose to stamp a squirrel and use the sentiment "nuts about you"! Just to add to the whole nut/squirrel thing, I took the picture of the card in a tree where a ton of squirrel in our yard like to hang out.

CFC #40 - Ribbon

This week's theme over at CAS-ual Fridays is ribbon! I was going through old stuff last night that I haven't used and found these cute little flags.

I've also re-fallen in love with this paper, so all in all it ended up being a very October Afteroony card!

CFC #39- paper piecing

This week's challenge at CAS-ual Fridays is paper piecing! I just recently got my first order of The Craft's Meow stamps so what a perfect challenge to break them in a little!

 I'm totally smitten with this tandem bike stamp set, it's so adorable! For those of you in the northeast like I am, good luck with the snow today!

CFC38, Mojo Monday 226, and PDCC117- Skunk with flower

My original inspiration for this card was Casual Fridays and I had the movie Bambie in mind when I made it. The little skunk in that movie is so freakin' cute! I'm loving the colors of this week's Play Date Cafe so I made another card with the colors, and then used the layout from this week's Mojo Monday which I haven't played along with in FOREVER! I actually got this stamp set while at Papertrey Ink's Stamp-A-Faire event in Cincinnati over the summer for FREE- gotta love that!

CAS-ual Fridays- engagement card

I ended up making two cards for this sketch at CAS-ual Fridays! So many engagements recently that I can't even keep up with them all! This one was a special request by my husband's cousin Carly for his other cousin Amy. She loves black and white! I still can't decide if I like the silhouettes or not...

CAS-ual Fridays sketch challenge- flowery butterfly card

This card was made using the sketch from CAS-ual Fridays CFC37. I haven't been super into making cards lately, but sometimes all it takes is a little new paper to get me going again! I love the hounds-tooth with heart side of this paper, so cute!
