STAMPlorations CASEplorations July

Hi Everyone,

come and CASE with us here at STAMPlorations!





Today we are CASEing this amazing card from Elina Stromberg of Arts and Crafts. She made this card for the Mixed Media Card Challenge run by Shery.


My stamp supplies:

I water colored my background in red and while it was still wet I stamped the big words onto it, removing some of the wet paint. I waited for it to dry completely and then I stamped the butterflies. I die cut it with a stitched die. Added the center panel, also colored with water color and die cut with a stitched die. Added the die cut sentiment, a gift from my friend Maria F.



Our amazing DT has made quite some wonderful inspiration cards! Go and check it out!

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.
