CASology Week #388...Hello

 

Hello and happy Tuesday. It's time for another challenge at CASology.   This week, our cue word is 

HELLO.  This is a great prompt for me to make a card just to say hello to a friend who lives far away--or who lives close by but who I can't visit because of Covid.

I die cut a small hello from Simon Says Stamp several times and glued them together to get some dimension.  I stencilled a star burst in the corner, added my dimensional hello and a few gemstones, and my Clean and Simple card was done.

Now it's your turn.  How does HELLO inspire you?

As always, remember the following CAS guidelines when creating your design:

1. One main image
2. Lots of open space, uncluttered
3. Limited layers & embellishments
4. Quick & easy to recreate (Note: It may take a while to create a design you like, but once you have that design, making more should be a piece of cake!)

I hope you play along this week.

Please head on over to the CASology blog and gather some inspiration from our Guest Designer, Asa,  and the design team.  

Thanks for Visiting

My Crafty Weekend

 

Finally--some crafty time this weekend.  I'll start with a get well card that I made for a little boy about to undergo a major surgery.  I used the technique from this week's Make it Monday #298: Faux Epoxy Embellishments.  I used some of the preprinted paper from the Out of This World kit, adding a stenciled sun and the rockets and planet as my faux epoxy embellishments.

I am also entering this card at Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge: A Walk on the Dark Side and The Male Room #70: Anything Goes with the Option of Technology--My rockets are the technology.

My next card was inspired by this beautiful card at Muse #236 by Anita.

Inspiration Card by Anita

I was inspired by the theme of leaves, the fall colors and the die cut sentiment on vellum.

I am also entering this card at Addicted to Stamps and More #262: Make Your Mark.

While I still had that leaf die out, I decided to make another card with it.  I used the colors from CAS Colours & Sketches #243, and am also entering this card at CAS on Friday #118: Fall.

Last of all is a card I made for the Favorite stamp challenge at Addicted to CAS and More #121.  I have so many stamps, it is really hard to pick a favorite, but I looked at the labels on my blog, where I normally put the name of the stamp sets I used, and saw that Harvest Berries came up 17 times--way more than anything else, so that is the stamp set I used.

I also saw that I typically used this set for sympathy cards, but decided this time to make a masculine get well card.
