I love CAS cards! This one was truly very
easy. I stamped my image and masked it. 
Then I stenciled some inks and stamped
my sentiment. I think this NN stamp set 
and dies is just too cute! The image was 
colored with Spectrum Noir TriBlend markers.

about them from PIP Challenges!!
Here's my card!
I'm hooked on these flip cards, or 
waterfall cards as I first knew of them.
They are made super easy using Lawn Fawn
die cuts. I used Gerda Steiner stamps. I ran
the image die cuts to create masks for
the stamped images so I could sponge the 
colored background. FYI, the deeper color
is actually a muted purple but looks muddy
in the photo. Oh well. lol. The stamped 
banner is a Paper Smooches stamp and die.
The sentiment is Gerda Steiner. Images
were colored with SN markers.

Challenge 2020

This week's sponsor is 
Polkadoodles
Be sure to pop over and see all the 
fabulous digis, stamps and 
supplies that they have!  
Go check them out now!
We REALLY appreciate them!
Here's my project!
As always, Polkadoodles has a fun image
to play with! I LOVE books and I am drawn
to images with them. This will make a great
birthday card for my book-loving friends.
I will say that this hasn't been my week for
electronics...my external hard drive crashed.
Yep...I download EVERYTHING to that for
safety. Well, so much for that. ALL gone!
HUNDREDS of digital images, photos, etc...
BUT, it could be worse. My family and friends
are healthy and safe. I have food and shelter.
Photos are always difficult to lose but my
memories live on. Thank God. So, onward.
I printed, colored (using Copics) and fussy
cut the image. I then took some pattern
papers and ribbon to finish the background.
I then used pop dots to raise the oval and 
image. A few sequins finished the card.
Thanks for stopping by 
and stay healthy!!

PIP Challenge 2019

PIP Challenge  2019

There is no official sponsor for this week's
challenge but PIP will be offering the winner
$5 Gift Certificate from
Paper Smooches
Here's my card for this week!
I always have fun playing with my 
Paper Smooches stamps and die cuts,
so this card was LOTS of fun! Got to use
both! I die cut the lighthouse out of 4 
colors, red, white, yellow, and black.
I set that aside while I stamped my pelican
and post. I colored them with Copics and
die cut them out. I then took 2 types of 
brown/tan papers and cut them to make
my land and placed it on top of some 
blue sparkle paper, for the water, and 
blue-gray paper for the sky. All stamps
and die cuts, except the clouds, are from
Paper Smooches. Just a matter of putting 
the card together and raising the pelican
and stump for some added dimension. 
I'm entering this card in the following challenges:

Pammie's Inky Pinkies
Challenge 2018

This week's sponsor is Gerda Steiner, where 
you can find some of the cutest digis for 
just about anything to meet your creative 
desires. They are kindly offering $15 gift code 
for this week's winner! Go check them out now!
Here's my card!
During this pandemic, one thing I miss is
giving and getting hugs! Yep, I'm a hugger. 
Soooo, when I saw this cute little bear
from Gerda Steiner I knew I'd have to 
make lots of cards for my friends and family.
I created the sentiment and colored 
the bear using SN markers. Use a few die
cuts and that about does it. Easy and cute.
This pic doesn't look white...bad photo!
