Holiday CHEER at CASology

It's all about a little happiness this week at CASology
I'm gearing up for the holiday season with my card this week. 
The cue card is: CHEER.



I adore metallic embossing powder...well all EPs actually lol. This stamp set is a little older stamp set from Hero Arts called Under the Mistletoe.
The red berries are actually stamped and heat embossed on vellum then popped up on foam dots
to give some dimension to the card. How easy is this?!


Don't forget to swing by the other DT member blogs to see their cheery cards!

SHARPen Your Scissors at CASology

After two weeks in training for a promotion, I'm chomping at the bit to join back up at CASology this week and I hope you've had some great inspiration! This week, we're wanting you to hone your crafting skills for the cue card: SHARP.

 


I went with the concept of dark against light for a sharp contrast in colors. The navy blue skyline diecut sits against a lightly sponged Twisted Citron and Blueprint Sketch Distress Ink background. The lime green embossing powder for the sentiment from Precious Remembrance Shop (New Day Stamp set) adds another punch of color.

Swing by the other DT blogs and check out their visions for this week's cue card! They never disappoint :)

Grateful Words with CASology

Ready for a new CASology cue card this week? 
We're saying some loving, kind, caring words this week: CHERISH



Sometimes you just want to share your appreciation. This stamp set from Altenew had the perfect sentiment, "forever grateful." I colored the flower, bird, and even the sentiment with Zig clean color markers and added a few sequins. I love how graphic and bright this card turned out!



You've got to see the other DT inspirations this week.

Piggies and Sorries at CASology

It's CASology Tuesday and we've got a special cue card
to help you when you need to apologize. Our cue card is: SORRY.



I guess I cheated a little by stamping my piggy on some pink and white patterned cardstock, but I wanted to give his background some color. A few swipes and swirls of Tumbled Glass and Lucky Clover distress inks and you have it. I used the sentiment and flowers from the same MFT stamp set "Sow Much Cuteness".

Don't forget to see how the other DT ladies say sorry. And a huge thank you to our absolutely wonderful sponsor STAMPlorations who is returning and offering this challenge's winner a $15 gift certificate to the online store!  Remember, during the weeks STAMPlorations is sponsoring us, you can refresh your craft stash with the help of the 10% off discount code, CASOLOGY!
