CASology #249‘s cue card was particularly inspiring: Here is where I went with it: I used a punch for the circle in the middle (forgetting I had just bought circle dies… :D). Some extra sprays of yellow/orange spray ink made it darker and warmer, but maybe a bit too dark cause the sun stamp needed…

penguin family card
I had a request for a card with animals – two parents and two babies. I don’t have a lot of animals in my stash so it was off to a big box craft supply store for me. I stood in the sticker aisle, conflicted. It felt like the most difficult choice I had to…
CASology #244 – strong
NOTE: A big thanks to Rachel for the honourable mention last week for CASology #243 – icing! ❤ The cue card for CASology #244 is strong: I am on a Mother’s Day card kick right now, and this cue card is a great prompt for one of those! Just one spritz of spray ink, one…
CAS(E) This Sketch #216
Gotta love the stripes for the CAS(E) This Sketch #216 sketch: I needed another birthday card for a no-frills kinda guy and I thought this sketch worked really well for that. I stenciled the stripes on some green paper with MementoLuxe Nautical Blue ink. I built up the sentiment with a couple of die cuts,…
Fusion – Easter
The Fusion card challenge theme is Easter, but I chose to go with just the sketch… …and I flipped it horizontally: I needed a birthday card, and went for it. I used a We R Memory Keepers journaling card from a big set of 4×6 and 3×4 cards. I love the set and wish I…
CASology #243 – icing
Note: A big thanks to Jacquie for the honourable mention for CASology #242 – text! What a sweet cue card for CASology #243: Here is my card: My first version had yellow icing and a gold wrapper but the Copic marker kinda leaked and things got a bit messy. So purple it is. Then I…

S.I.P. #88 -anything but a card
This week’s Stamp Ink Paper challenge is a bit of a shake up: I went with a tag: The background is stenciled in yellow ink. I went with other bright colours (almost keeping them all primary). I dig the HOORAY die cut letters filled in with other colours 🙂 This tag is so cheery! As a…
S.I.P. #86 – yellow, peach & teal
It’s a colour challenge over at Stamp Ink Paper. For SIP #86, the colours are: It’s a lovely combination evokes a warm spring scene, perhaps a bright Easter morning out in the yard for an egg hunt. Alas it was not to be for this card… I just got a new Jillibean Soup stamp set…
CTD 425 – black, mustard, blue
The colour combination over at Color Throwdown is black, mustard and blue: I agree with Barbara Anders in that this colour combination can work well to create a masculine card. That is the direction I took as well: I don’t have a great amount of embellishments, but I wanted to add something so I went…
