Less is More & CAS(E) this Sketch

After lots of gardening this morning, I decided I just had to have a break to do some craft lol. Any excuse will do, huh? Well that's my opinion anyway ;)

Over at Less is More the challenge is to create a One Layer Card and the theme is "Wings".

I really, really liked the sketch that I had followed for my previous card over at CAS(E) this Sketch, so I decided to enter another card.

The butterflys are from Hero Arts which I have inked by using my Stampin' Write markers directly onto the stamp. The colours are Rich Razzleberry and Pacific Point. I have added some ribbon to border them. The sentiment is from my Petite Pairs stamp set.

Thanks for looking!!

CAS(E) this Sketch! Challenge #1

I saw Sue's GORGEOUS entries for a new challenge going on and I wanted to join in the fun. This blog is all about following the Sketch provided and CASEing it with a CAS style. Easy, huh? Maybe for some, lol. CAS isn't the most favourite of themes for most people but I really do like it. I don't think I 'pull it off' everytime but I am joining more and more CAS challenges to find inspiration.

I have started with a piece of Very Vanilla cardstock and cut it down to create a square card.  I have used my Simply Scored to create the score lines. I chose a stamp out my Jolly Bingo Bits set and decided to stamp in Basic Black and Real Red. The sentiment is from my Petite Pairs set.

Here is my card -

I was really happy with this card in the end. I have never made a CAS christmas card and I think I will be making some more!

Thanks for looking xx
