La-La Land Stamps...CTD457 & CAS(E) This Sketch # 236...You're a Class Act

Hello stampin' friends! I made some time today to get crafty, colour up this darling La-La Land Digi stamp - Reading Marci and play along with a couple FUN challenges! I made this card with the pretty colour combo over at the Color Throwdown # 457 and I followed the sketch that they have over at CAS(E) This Sketch # 236. 

I used MFT Heavyweight Card stock in Pink Lemonade, Banana Split and Grout Grey 

I LOVE this sketch that they have over at CAS(E)This Sketch! CAS is not my go-to style but I really tried to keep this card simple...at least it is simple in my books! 

I finally did some inking with the Distress Oxide Inks that I recently bought on Strathmore Bristol Artist paper. Using the Bristol paper was highly recommend by Laura Bassen over at laurafadora in this video.... it is a GREAT tip for effortless blending! I used Worn Lipstick and Fossilized Amber Distress Oxide ink and the sprinkled, flicked and dripped on some water for a few little water droplets. 
I coloured up Reading Marci with my Copics, cut the image with the Zig Zag Stitched Rectangle Sugar Cuts from SugarPea Designs. I left the image in the die and inked with Spun Sugar Distress ink then matted it with Grout Grey Heavyweight Cardstock. The sentiment is from the Reverse Confetti Class Act Stamp set and stamped on Reverse Confetti Polar White Cardstock with Versafine Onyx Black Ink. I tided the tag with Hemp cord and added a little sprinkle of sparkly gold YNS Gumdrops.  


I finished off the inside of my card too....I printed another digi image of Reading Marci as a shadow image and then stamped the sentiment from the Reverse Confetti Shine from Within Stamp set on a tag cut with MFT Traditional Tag STAX Die-namics. I used the "cut and re-cut technique" to shorted the tag.  Thanks SO much for stopping by and havin' a little look at my La-La Land Stamps - Reading Marci card for the Color Throwdown # 457 and CAS(E) This Sketch # 236!

Share Handmade Kindness Challenge, CTD # 367 and CTS # 148 ...Thanks

Hey stampin' friends! I have a special Reverse Confetti thank you card that I made for a very special friend who is always there for me. I was inspired by Jennifer McGuire's NEW Share Handmade Kindness Challenge to make a thank you card for her. I also found inspiration for this card at the Color Throwdown # 367 and CAS(E) This Sketch # 148.    

#sharehandmadekindness

I used MFT Heavyweight Card Stock in Primitive White, Bubblegum Pink and Jellybean Green. I also used Recollections Gold glitter corrugated card stock.  

  

This is the FUN sketch that I used as a jumping off point for this card. The tag element really inspired me to use my Reverse Confetti Thanks Tag Confetti Cuts.
  I just had to add a few extras layers and embellies ;) so my card isn't very CAS....sorry!

I used the fabulous Reverse Confetti Thanks Tag Confetti Cuts for my card. I cut it twice once from Bubblegum Pink Card Stock and then from Gold Glittered Corrugated Card Stock and layered it so the bottom scalloped edge of the tag is Gold Glittered Corrugated Card Stock. I cut the smaller panel from the Thanks Tag Confetti Cuts from Primitive White Heavyweight Card Stock that I had embossed with the Woodgrain Confetti Cuts. I cut the word "thanks" from Primitive White Heavyweight Card Stock a couple of times and once from the Gold Glittered Card Stock and stacked them to add a little dimension. 

I stamped some flowers with the Petals 'N Posies Stamp set with Bubblegum Pink, Jellybean Green and Mix'd Media Inx in Vintage,  a pretty gold ink and cut them out with the coordinating Petals 'N Posies Confetti Cuts.  I used the Color Me Happy stamp set and stamped the paint swatches, splotches and splatters on the back panel of the card with the Mix'd Media Inx in Vintage.  I embellished with YNS Gold Gumdrops and tie the tag with Hemp cord.

I finished off the inside of my card...I stamped more splotches, splatters and swatches of Vintage Mix'd Media Inx on the Primitive White Card Stock and added another Thanks Tag this time I stamped a sentiment from the Posted Note Sentiments Stamp set in Jellybean Green Premium Dye Ink.

Thanks SO much for stopping by and having a little look at the Share Handmade Kindness card with inspiration from the Color Throwdown # 367 and CAS(E) This Sketch Challenge # 148.
