HUGs...Oops Hogs & Kisses at CASology

Every once in awhile, we can all use one...and CASology is sending lots of them
with our new cue card this week: HUG.



Hogs and Kisses! I just couldn't help myself with this cute little Avery Elle stamp set. It has lots of cute sayings to use in the center of the animal stamps :) I used Prismacolor pencils for the coloring and Distress Inks for the border. 

I really hope you "embrace" the DT cards and show them some love too!




Guest Designer: Karen D.


I'm also joining in at Fusion Card Challenge's 4th Anniversary.

Have a crafty week!

JUICY Fruit

What a fun cue card we have for you this week over at CASology!
It's the perfect time of year to make a card with everything JUICY in mind.




I've been hanging onto this little Avery Elle "Mon Cheri" stamp set and how sweet (get it??) to use it this week. I actually stamped these on vellum and colored them from the back using Pitt Big Brush Pens. I love Bing cherries and the colors would look great against my sponged Distress Oxide Ink background...which has a little gold lining to the clouds.

The rest of the DT has some awesome inspiration this week to share too, so be sure to say hi. And don't forget the Guest Designer :)

CASology 180: Open

This week at the CASology challenge blog, we're hoping to spark some interest 
with the cue card: OPEN. What a...well...open concept :)


I knew I wanted to stamp into the open space, but how to add interest was the challenge. 
I took my swivel tip X-Acto blade (this tool is in regular rotation for me) 
and cut the heart out...eek, that doesn't sound nice lol. 
I popped up the entire card front and stamped the sentiment 
on some red cardstock to layer behind the open heart. 

I really like the depth it created on this CAS design.


If you've followed my cards, then the dotted coloring technique 
on this cow should look familiar :) The body of the cow is colored
using W1 and I used a few Es to color the spots. I love how the dots 
give some texture that's a bit against the grain of regular coloring. 
R-colored hearts finished with some Star Dust Stickles (another fave) 
and you have a cutie patootie CAS card. 

Check out the other CASology Design Team members' blogs and their inspirations

I'm also playing along at the CAS(E) this Sketch! blog :) This week's sketch 
inspired my layout :)


Thanks for stopping by and get working on your "open" card :)
