CAS & Colours

By
It's time for our weekly challenge at CAS - Colours & Sketches to commence and this week we have some lovely colours for you to use - take a look


Now these colours had me stumped for a while and while I was gazing at my stamp sets looking for inspiration to strike my eyes settled on the Serene Silhouettes and an idea was born - here is my card


I love the trees in this set and I thought that the perfect sunset backdrop would be one of my Gorgeous Grunge stamps and the Cherry Cobbler red. The stamp was stamped closer together at the top of the card to create a darker more concentrated colour.

Materials - Stampin' Up
Stamps: Serene Silhouettes, Gorgeous Grunge, Petite Pairs
Ink: Cherry Cobbler, Night of Navy
Card Stock: Very Vanilla
Accessories: Modern Label Punch, Basic Rhinestones

    How incredibly clever to use the grunge stamp to create that super sunset sky! Fantastic job, Jacqueline! :)

Yikes - I'm a bit late posting today, but when I got into my studio this morning I had forgotten that it looked like this I had a big family lunch yesterday and 'cos our house is so small, I have to keep stuff moving from room to room in order for there to be enough space. So I got to work straight away and now my desk looks like this There is a hidiously green magnetic board complete with snail magnets that I won in a raffle - just right for altering, some wooden drawer knobs onto which I will attach some foam to use with my disress inks and my chipboard albums from last week that I didn't get round to doing. Also found when clearing from one room to another was my old jewelery display board which will soon be converted to a card display board and an old set of corner shelves. All they needed was a quick flick of a J-Cloth and a spray of Flash (oops advertising - other cleaning products are avaliable) and they now stand proudly in my craft room displaying my most recent cr

Thank for stopping by today - see you soon - J xx
