CAS for club

Morning All,
I had a chance to make a post about a card I made for my upcoming club night. I had gone on over to CAS colour and sketch challenge and they had this great sketch:

 

I thought the diagonal lines would work perfectly for what I had in mind:

 

I used a base of Summer Startfruit (one of the newest in colors), a layer of Early Espresso and Old Olive topped by a layer of Afternoon Picnic. Then I did a strip of the Victorian ribbon and the Thankful sentiment from the expressions thinlits and I was done. Hope the club enjoys the layout!

Have a great day!

Working on it!

Hi All,
"Working on it" seems to be the theme of my day! Finally got around to finishing my Great Aunts Thanksgiving cards using some new products from the Holiday Mini and old stuff from the old Holiday Mini AND cleaned my craft room/office!! Gotta love Stampin Up you can always count on great products for the holidays! Anyway I needed a design so I went on over to Freshly Made Sketches and they had another awesome sketch:

Here's what I came up with:

 

I used the expressions thinlits for the awesome greeting on the front, the howlstooth and scaringbone DP as a background and heat embossed the wreath from the Full of Blessings stamp set and colored with my blender pens. I hope she likes the card!

Have a great day!

New Toys!

Morning All,
I finally had a chance to "play" with some of the new gadgets from the Holiday mini!! Love them!! I am in LOVE with the Winter Frost paper stack! Perfect for cards! I used the new Expressions Thinlits Dies with the Silver Foil Sheets for a fresh color mix:

I cut the top portion of the card a little short to add another coordinating piece of DP with the Frosted Finished Embellishments on the inside of the card and used the new 1/8" Silver Ribbon on the edges. I love the silver and Pool Party together. I really like the fresh color palettes in this holiday catty! Hope your enjoying the day!
