Happy Little Stampers July CAS Challenge

Welcome back everyone!

It's another exciting day for Happy Little Stampers. Our CAS Challenge kicks off for the month and will all our new designers! Please pop on over to the challenge blog to say hi.

Easy, huh? Just include stamping on your Clean and Simple project.

For my background, I have used Acrylic Block Stamping.

(You can see my video for this technique HERE)

I've used a mixture of pink, orange and yellow distress inks. Why? Because these colours are Loll's favourites and this is the card I sent her for her birthday ;)

The die has been popped up with little foam squares (thanks so much Joyce for this die!!).

Check out the amazing inspiration that has been created for you over at the challenge blog.

Thanks so much for looking xx

Watercoloured Spring Lilacs

Using my absolute favourite technique at the moment - Acrylic Block Stamping - I have come up with a card to showcase the Spring Lilacs stamp set from Inspired by Stamping.

I love Christmas and making cards but it's always nice to return to non-christmas creations.

I created my background by using acrylic blocks and distress inks - you can see my video tutorial HERE

Once my panel was finished, I added raindrop gems and sequins.

I would like to enter my card into the following challenges

ATCAS Challenge #53

Hi everyone! Today is the start of a brand new challenge for ATCAS. We also have a DT call throughout this challenge so if you would like to join a wonderful team who love creating Clean and Simple projects then you should apply!

I have to say goodbye to Marie (Mrs P, Ugly Bum, Sook face) as this will be her last post for us over at ATCAS. Marie and I have a very strong bond and were so lucky to meet each other over in Spain earlier this year. We had so much fun and I miss her to bits. I have a certain video of her dancing around the kitchen after we had a few beverages one day so I would just like to remind her that I know how to upload to YouTube now and she had better start being nice to me!!!! (insert evil laugh)

Right! Onto our challenge -

Here is the code word that was chosen by my Canadian Bestie, Loll

I have used Acrylic Block Stamping for my background and I have created a video tutorial for this card. You can see it over on my YouTube channel HERE. Don't forget to subscribe. This is only my 2nd video so bear with me until I can purchase a better microphone :)

Stamp sets from Inspired by Stamping - Spring Lilacs and Big Holidays

I would like to enter my card into the following challenges -

Here is my second card -

Using the same Acrylic Block technique, I masked off my panel to concentrate on inking up the centre of the card. Once this was completely dry, I embossed a tree from the Lovely as a Tree set (SU). Then using a silver sharpie, I drew the border and added dots to the background.

I would like to enter my card into the following challenges -
