Two Cards - Four Challenges


At One Layer Wednesday the challenge is "WARM". Clearly this funky bird got inspired by that. He looks quite cozy in his scarf, stockings and sneakers! 
  CAS-ual Fridays likes their cards long and short this week. So this card is for both challenges.



The bird is ancient and is from Stamps Happen. I colored him with Copics. The sentiment is partially from Snag'em Stamps.

And then 2 more!


combined with

CAS(E) this Sketch Challenge #11






The diamonds are Lifestyle crafts, clear embossed with the Hero Arts Magical background stamp (CG211), the sentiment is Papertrey. The left half of the card is covered with vellum.

Zwei schöne Karten! Über die erste muß ich ein bisschen schmunzeln. Es scheint ihm ziemlich kalt zu sein. Tolle Farben hast du verwendet!
Bei der zweiten ist es eher ...Ah, wie elegant! Mit nur vier Rauten hast du eine echt schöne CAS Karte gestaltet!!
That bird image is too cute for words - those tennis shoes totally make me smile! Very pretty take on the sketch, too! Thanks so much for playing with us at CAS(E) This Sketch - we're so glad you did!

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.
