Something amazing in each new day


Morning Peeps, our last theme of the year which will run for two weeks at Allsorts, I am your host and have selected 'CAS' as my theme, one I often struggle with so a challenge to myself as well. Prizes are from, AALL and Create,  Highlight Crafts and Ruth Hamilton Design

Above the beautiful Rose from the latest AALL and Create release called Sent with Love, stamped and paper pieced with a snippet inked with Oxides, the same ink used to colour the circle and spritzed with Cadence gold Shake and Gilt. The sentiment is from my Beleive stamp set.

This one uses Papaver Poppies a really beautiful set and I used a piece of masking tape to place the Poppies into a vase which comes from Daisy Elegance, sadly now discontinued but it is still available from a few retailers. The sentiment is from the same set as the one used on the above card. I only realised after editing the photo that the white card used for stamping is a distinctly different shade to the at of the base card, ah well!!

It just leaves me to wish you all a very Happy and Peaceful Christmas season and my thanks for your continued support and inspiration, it always means so much.

Two stunning cards Brenda, the rose stamp is currently sitting next to me waiting to be inked. I'll have to see if I have time to make a card this time after all you've given us two weeks. Really what I mean is I need to clear a space in my Craftroom to be able to get the stuff out to stamp and ink. Have a fabulous Christmas and New Year.

Ciao cara Brenda, spero che tu stia meglio!! Le tue card floreali sono sempre deliziose e queste due CAS non fanno eccezione! La prima è così luminosa e la seconda è davvero perfetta con le due differenti tonalità di bianco, credevo che lo avessi fatto apposta!! :) La mia preferita è proprio la seconda e i tuoi sentiments sono così belli ed appropriati!
Auguro a te e alla tua grande famiglia di trascorrere un Natale sereno e gioioso! Un grande abbraccio!

It's a great theme Brenda and I think you did fabulously! The cards still represent your usual style just in a simpler way and are both beautiful! Hope you had a good Christmas. Hubby got the flu a couple of days before but thankfully his fever was gone by Christmas Eve.

I love your cards! The mixed media feel is something I forget to play with. These are just wonderful. :)

Greta said...

Can't tell CAS is hard for you from these 2 beauties! I've actually learned to like using 2 different shades of white after seeing some designers do that on purpose.
