I had some “puttering” time in my stamp room, so I made a few cards! This one is for the sketch #237 from Create with Connie & Mary this week:
I had some scraps of Primrose Petals Coredinations paper from a previous project, so I pulled one out to make this little square card:
The panels are canvas; I first stamped the French script from French Foliage in Crumb Cake, then the floral image from Creative Elements right over top. I added some swirls and butterflies…..which were stamped in Versamark ink and then dabbed with pastels…..remember that technique? Poppin’ Pastels?! I love the effect on this paper:
Finally, I added a ribbon and half a banner with a sentiment from Fabulous Phrases and an image from Itty Bitties.
My next was using the CAS(E) This Sketch #13:
This is one of those cards where I let the paper do ALL the work! No stamping at all:
Just LOVE these MME papers! And finally, using some scraps from the same papers, I snagged the LIM sketch from last week":
This one does have a bit of stamping on it, as well as a little glimmer paper scalloped heart…..easy peasy
! I am also entering this in the Addicted to CAS challenge #5, which is to use a heart!
In an effort to begin Cassidy on her potty training, I bought her a doll that wets:
She wasn’t quite sure what was going on when what she put in decided to come out!
All 3 of these are gorgeous, LeAnne! I especially love the 2nd one. That's some awesome paper! I remember having a Tiny Tears doll when I was little. I loved that she wet her pants when I fed her. I hope Cassidy enjoys her baby as much as I did mine.
ReplyDeleteWow, you've been busy LeAnne! Nice cards and love the monochromatic coloring of the CCMC Challenge card. Thanks for playing Create with Connie & Mary this week!
