CAS Mix Up Challenge - August 2020 - Beach - Walking the Dog

Hi there,

It's time for a new challenge at CAS Mix Up, Loll is our Hostess and we have a Beach theme with Water colouring this month.  Brenda (Inkspired to Stamp) is our Guest Designer.
I water coloured the background for about 3/4 of my panel and then sponged the clouds for the rest. I had stamped the main image on the card panel but my mask did not seal properly and I restamped the lady and fussy cut her out and then water coloured the images.

Lovely to see you here today.  

Hugs,

Try Stampin' - Or Not - On Tuesday #467 - Sitting Pretty

Hello Friends,

Today's card is for the Try Stampin' Or Not On Tuesday Challenge with an Optional Theme to Create a Scene.

I embossed the white mat, die cut the seat, stamped and water coloured the cushions, cat and potted flowers.  Then I fussy cut these images and stamped the squirrel and die cut it.  The navy strip was punched and then cut in half and glued to the card.  I also added the designer paper, a strip of coral card and the button threaded with the Bakers Twine.  For the inside of my card I stamped the potted flowers colouring them with Markers and finished off by stamping the Sentiment.

Thanks for visiting today.

The Paper Players #501 and Color Throwdown #604 - Holiday Greetings

Hi,

Today's card is for The Paper Player's Sketch Challenge #501 and Color Throwdown #604 using Terracotta, Black and White.  I inked the Deer and then kissed them with the larger floral Deer from the same stamp set and this created a more textured look.  Die cut the Deer and stamped the background and white embossed the Sentiment on black card.  Sourced some Designer Paper and finished off the front to look like the Sketch.  There was a reference to Terracotta on the Color Throwdown so I went with that color, but the color swatch appears to be more caramel, hope it is okay.

With thanks to Stef this card received A Cut Above Award.

So glad you dropped by, lovely to see you here.

This is the reminder post for the CAS Mix Up July challenge, you have until the 24th of July to join us with your card.
For this card I used Yuppo card and Alcohol Inks for the background.  The Stencil was traced using a Silver Gel Pen and then I embossed it with Silver embossing Powder. Once these steps were completed I die cut it with a rectangle stitched die.  I used the same piece of Yuppo to stamp the fish and the sentiment.  The frame was die cut with Silver Foil.  For the inside of my card I die cut another rectangle from the scraps I had from the front background.

The Stencil I used.

Lovely to see you here today.
