I have a sweet and fruity card for this week's CASology #3 challenge. I used UTEE on these strawberries, going over them a couple of times to get them thick and glossy. They really look scrumptious in person.

Great cards... love the embossing details.
ReplyDeleteThese are both fabulous cards! The strawberries are shiny & juicy and the sunshine embossing on your airplane makes it even better than the original ;)
ReplyDeleteJoyce both of these are amazing! Those strawberries look so yummy. And I love the sunshine IP on the retirement card. So fun.
ReplyDeleteBoth of your cards are amazing Joyce. I so love that cane impression plate and the UTEE embosssing. The L'il Inkers clouds are fabulous over the Sunshine Impression Plate. Thank you so much for joining us at CASology this week!

ReplyDeleteLove the bright and cheery cards, Joyce. I don't have the strawberry Fruit Fusion, but I think I might add it to my wihlist. It's such a cute little stamp set. Your retirement card is fabulous .... love the way you created the blue background behind the white layer.
ReplyDeleteHi Joyce! I love the strawberries- they are so striking against the embossed background (which is also quite beautiful). Is UTEE like diamond glaze? I bet they look awesome.
ReplyDeleteI love both of your cards Joyce...especially the airplane card, so smart to cut out the center and have the plane flyin by...love the little clouds too. Your strawberries look good enough to eat!
ReplyDeleteGreat cards. The airplane one is perfect for you friend.

Joyce, I love, love, LOVE the plane card!!! The blue striped paper is perfect, and I love the embossing :) And the strawberry card looks so cool with the glossy accents!
ReplyDeleteJoyce, you have been a busy bee with your card making. Those berries look good enough to eat, so bright and colorful and on that embossed background, so perfect...looks like those little green plastic baskets you get strawberries in. Your plane card is just as adorable and just too cute with those clouds!
