My Crafty Week

Here are some pictures of what I've been working on this week.

A huge thank you to my bestie Kim, who sent me a million die cuts for my new MFT Polar Bear Stamps.  I used one of the bears on this card, inspired by the sketch at Freshly Made Sketches #265.  I am also entering this card at Simon Says Wednesday Anything Goes.

One more card with those adorable polar bears...this one inspired by the sketch at Case This Sketch #200, which I flipped.  I am also entering this card at Addicted to Stamps and More #222: Make Your Mark.

My next card was inspired by this beauty of Leigh's.  I stamped a city scene for the Male Room #49 where the challenge is ???? Scapes and I decided to stamp a city scape.  

I used a spotlight technique, and colored everything that is part of the die cut Christmas tree green. I left the rest of the buildings grey.  Here is a better view of the dimension of the Christmas Tree.

I am entering this card at Just Us Girls #372: Christmas Tree, Simon Says Monday O' Christmas Tree, and AAA Cards #79 Christmas.

One more holiday card from me--this one using these really fun holiday light dies from Lawn Fawn.  I used colors from CAS Colours and Sketches #202:  Seasonal Colors.  I chose the color scheme from challenge #189.  Can you see all the shimmer on those lights from Wink of Stella?  I am also entering this card at Inkspirational #123: CAS with Sparkle and CAS on Sunday #97: Christmas.

The last thing I made this week is a card set for my neice who is studying to become a teacher.  I am entering this set at Less is More #305, where the challenge is to use primary colors.  There are 8 flat cards with matching envelopes.

CASology Week 225: Soft

Hello and happy Tuesday. It's time for another challenge at CASology.   This week, our cue word is soft.  Perhaps it is the season, but I was thinking of snow...falling softly, creating soft and puffy snowdrifts.  Those of you who live where it actually snow may want to set me straight on this one. Until then, I am sticking with my softly falling snow flakes.

I stamped some bare birch trees on a card front, and then used a falling snow stencil and embossing paste to create my softly falling snow.  I used a stitched landscape die to create my snowdrift.

Now it's your turn.  How does soft inspire you?  I hope you play along this week.  Please remember to keep it Clean and Simple.

I am also entering this card at Simon Says Wednesday where the challenge is Christmas Critters and Paper Players #322 where the challenge is Clean and Simple Christmas.

Please head on over to the CASology blog and gather some inspiration from the design team.
