CASology: Week 11

Good morning, Friends! Are you ready for a great weekend? I am visiting my good friend Sherry this weekend! We are going to the big quilt show today! Becky and I brought along all our fun stitching to do and I am looking forward to a great visit and crafting time! The weekend will go by really fast so we are going to enjoy every minute!

Today's card was inspired by the challenge at CASology. The cue word is white. This is my kind of challenge as I love to use a lot of white space on my cards! So I used my Snow Flurry die for this. I cut all three snowflakes out using Whisper White card stock. I layered the two smaller ones together with a silver brad. These are popped up onto the bigger one. Then I flagged both ends of a strip of silver glimmer paper and adhered this to a card base of Whisper White. I popped the snowflakes up onto the card. At the bottom I stamped the greeting from Sweet Essentials in Basic Grey. Done! A super easy and elegant card! Thanks for stopping by and have a super day!

CASology: Week #10

Good morning, Friends!! It is SO nice to wake up to the sound of rain! Love the clouds and the rain!! especially when we haven't seen hardly any of it this summer! And the temperatures are cooler and you can feel fall in the air! I love fall! And I love that I got to sleep in a little. Nick fell at school yesterday afternoon and hurt his ankle really bad. Really bad! We decided to let him sleep in a little this morning and then I will look at it and make a decision as to if I take him back to school or to the doctor. I am praying nothing is broken or fractured or too serious! He can't seem to put any pressure on it and I even had to wheel him out of the school in a wheelchair! It was really swollen so I hope that it went down. I also hope that it doesn't hurt so bad today. I'll wake him up in a few hours and see. This is his real first injury!

Today's card is for a new challenge that I am excited to participate in. It is called CASology. They are looking for clean and simple cards. And you all know how I love the clean and simple! Their cue word this week is 'sky'. Well, I have been making quite a few cards with this super cute Googly Ghouls set and went with it again as you do see bats in the sky!! I also tried hard to stick with a one layer card as that is the challenge for the LNS group. I stamped the 'boooo' onto a Whisper White card base in black StazOn and then I stamped two bats onto the card as well. I stamped a third bat onto a scrap of Whisper White and cut him out. I used my Basic Black marker and a ruler and drew a sort of frame around the inside of my card. Then I popped up the third bat and added gogglies! I like simple but these one layer cards are a little more difficult for me! Thanks for stopping by and have a super day!
