Happy Birthday and Well Wishes



Hello and happy Saturday everyone.  My weekend has started with some crafty time, and I was able to finish two cards I started yesterday.  I was playing around with Limeade Ice and Hawaiian Shores and ended up making two cards.

I used a NBUS stamp set I won from Clearly Whimsy Stamps--It's called Tremendous Triangles and it is chock full of fantastic graphic images.  I can tell I am going to have a lot of fun playing with these stamps.  I sliced my sentiment in two, after being inspired by this week's Papertrey Ink's Design Team Tips.



I am entering this card at Showcase your Style #6--so excited to play this challenge for the first time as well as CAS(E) this Sketch #106.



Darnell and CASology are partnered this week to challenge us to use our NBUS.  Grab something new and create a Clean and Simple card to play along.




I was not done with those colors or the sketch, so I made another card for Showcase your Style #6 and CAS(E) this Sketch #106.  No NBUS in this card below--all the supplies on this card have seen lots of love before.




I am also linking both of these cards at Simon Says Wednesday It's a Guy Thing.



Thanks for Visiting

  14. On your first card I thought you meant you literally sliced your sentiment in two, so you could stack it. THEN I scrolled down and saw what you meant. I like that technique for a bit of added pop. Thanks for sharing that. Love the bold colors and your graphic design on both cards. The second one with its texture made me think you stamped on a paper towel. Only of course you could never get such a crisp image on a paper towel.

The second card features the same great colors and it has a certain trendy, cool, chic look to it!! Very lovely work for today!!!
