CAS-ual Fridays - CFC83

As usual - kind of a t the last minute, I made a crad for the CAS-ual Fridays challenge#83, which this time has teamed up with Paulina's 10 minute craft dash. Since New Year is part of the holiday season, I thought this card is just right. The frog is from Sparkles and Sprinkles, the sentiment is Hera Arts. I clear embossed the frog - thinking that would make coloring easier. I used my Copic markers. I masked the "Y" from year, since the Martini glass has a perfect "Y"-shape. My husband however went: "Happy New EAR - what's that?"

It took me exactly 9 minutes and 23 seconds to make this card.

I also drew inspiration from the ever so clever Ardyth, who used a baby bottle to stand for the "i" in girl.


I also submitted this card to the Less is More challenge - the theme is "drinks" and to the CASology #25 challenge - the theme is "NEW".

Hallo "Landsmännin"
ich bin aus Bayern und lebe schon seit über 30 Jahren in Frankreich. Freut mich, dass ich über deinen noch ganz jungen Blog gestolpert bin.
Deine Karte ist herrlich und du hast das Motiv toll coloriert. Der Frosch gefällt mir ausgezeichnet! Auch was du sonst noch so bastelst, finde ich sehr interessant.
Bin auch eher ein CAS-Fan, mache aber auch des öfteren aufwendigere Karten. Je nach Lust und Laune...

Ganz liebe Grüße sendet dir ....Rosi

"ever so clever", huh? I don't feel like that most of the time! lol! I love how you used the martini glass as the 'y' and I love how you tipped the whole thing a little bit - always fun to be a little tipsy at New Years! Thanks so much for playing along with us at CASology this week, Cornelia!

Dynamic Duos combined with CAS Colours and Sketches

I am getting the hang of combining challenges....not sure if that's good or bad... In the past I would just put all my "creative energy" into one challenge and then just link up with others, if the card just happened to fit...but now I do that on purpose. Well, I'll see how it goes....                           Anyhow here is the card that came out of this: I did not want to add a sentiment - I 'll add it later, when I know who will get it.
