SSC CAS Challenge Cards

Hey there!

I've been slacking a little and haven't gotten around to posting last two Simply Stamping Crafts CAS Challenge cards here on the blog (they can be seen every Friday at SSC in the CAS Challenge Group)

The challenge for the week of April 15th was to create a monochromatic card.

I used PTI's Aqua Mist and Ocean Tides for this one, with a Vintage Cream base. Can I say I'm in love with the Turning a New Leaf die? I NEVER would have cut those leaves out!

The challenge for the week of April 22 (it's still going on, you can check it out here) is to create a card with paper piecing.

I paper pieced the umbrella that perfectly goes along with the sentiment from the Verve Blue Skies set.

I'd love if you would come join our challenges! There is still time to submit an April card to be entered for a $25 gift certificate to My Favorite Things.

Thanks for stopping by!

Simply Scrapping Crafts - CAS Challenge

Hi guys!

I'm so excited to be here today with my first card as a member of the Simply Scrapping Crafts CAS Design Team! I am so excited that these girls asked me to join their team and we've got some fun stuff up our sleeves!

This week the challenge is to create a card or layout based on this sketch:

When I looked at it I immediately thought of Maile Belles's new Modern Basics set.

I hope you can see the heat embossed design on the white layer. I used the small strip from Modern Basics stamped in Versamark and heat embossed with clear embossing powder.

I hope you'll come play along with us! Just post your card to the April 8 Challenge thread here. At the end of the month one lucky participant from the month of April will win a $25 gift certificate to My Favorite Things!

Thanks for stopping by today!
