Contrast


Now there is an interesting challenge at CASology this week - the theme is CONTRAST.

That can be interpreted in so many ways. I choose to do two contrasts in my card - neon colors versus black and an organic form versus geometric ones.


The tree is really just a branch from A Muse, that I pieced together with my Stamp-a-ma-jig. The shapes are from STAMPlorations the set is Retro Mod Shapes. The sentiment is Papertrey Sketched Shapes. the neon inks are Hero Arts.

Easter Egg and Bunny

Hi Everyone, I made a bunch of Easter cards, after all its little more than one month and I need to send them out in time... You see, they are all similar - using both the die cut and the negative, that I cut from a die cut egg. The cute bunnies got their yearly appearance - they are from Impression Obsession. the egg is by Lifestyle Crafts. The sentiment is by Papertrey. And here are bigger photos from this set: Linking up with Creative with Stamps - Easter The Paper Players - die cutting Die Cut Divas - animals Happy Little Stampers - anything goes with dies

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.
