CFC 103 – Triangles

It’s finally Friday! CAS-ual Friday Challenge is back this week with Congratulation cards! I’ve been looking forward to Friday since Sunday night because (1) my family is almost back from HK (2) I’m 1 week away from my exam!

For this challenge, I wanted to build a pattern using several colors and some triangles. This is the type of card that looks nice from afar, but up close, you can see all those problems :P

Modern Grats

I’m not going to lie – the card base took forever to stamp and the fact that it’s not straight really annoys me.  

Triangle Building

Grats – Supplies:
Cardstock: PTI (white)
Stamps: Mama Elephant (Trifecta, Flashy Letters)

CFC #95 – Congrats

Hello Friday! I’m back with a card for the CAS-ual Fridays Challenge and this week, we are not stamping. Yup, you can use anything but stamps this week! Time to break out the washi tape, stickers, alphas that you’ve been hoarding :)

Creating a sentiment without stamping was the hardest part. Then I remembered my Smash Label Maker and created a little sentiment, adhered onto a Papertrey Ink coaster to give it a little dimension.

I used some stickers from SRM Stickers and washi tape as my background and die cut some leaves with Wplus9′s Folk Art Floral dies, adhered behind the sentiment.

Moxie Fab & CFC #59 – Baby Boy Bun

This is going to be a crazy long post. Like really crazy – as in 3 cards entered into 4 challenges. A very productive week of card making. My prize from Lawn Fawn came on Friday and I’m having lots of fun stamping away. Thank you Kelly for sponsoring CAS-ual Friday Challenge with a generous gift certificate!

My first card goes to Moxie Fab’s Tuesday Trigger: Man-tastic challenge. One of the sets from Lawn Fawn that I got was Blissful Botanicals and it arrived JUST in time for me to enter the challenge! Moxie Fab is also showcasing Thank You cards from Stamp It! Cards issue in which I’m also entering this card.

I did some embossing for the vine outline so that when I color the leaves in, it won’t bleed too much.
Leafy Thanks

My second card goes to CAS-ual Friday Challenge. This week is a tough challenge where we are to create a CAS card with two circles. This is really tough. After lots of trials and errors, this happened :)

Baby Boy Bun

I got Plus One from Lawn Fawn as well. I waited for this set to be back in stock… and it was a long wait – but totally worth it.

Congradulations

A cheesy play on words! April to June is pretty much graduation season so I’m stocking up on graduation cards this year. Since my cards are designed to be smaller than the standard A2 card sizes, fitting all the letters on there pretty much took up the whole card.

I randomly stamped the stars around the border using Ashley Cannon-Newell’s generational stamping again and I’m glad I did. I tried it without the generational stamping and the cardstock letters blended in with the stars, so I had to stamp off one or two times before stamping again on the card.

Used: Papertrey Ink (Terra Cotta cardstock, Orange Zest cardstock, Enchanted Evening cardstock, Simply Chartreuse cardstock, Smokey Shadow Ink, Simply Chartreuse Ink) | Market Street Stamps (Blast Off!) | Stampin ‘Up (dimensionals, Ruby Red ink, Brilliant Blue ink) | Others (rinestones)

Baby Pink

This card didn’t exactly come out the way I expected it to be.  I was thinking of a masculine birthday card but it turned into a cute baby girl congratulations card >_>  I have my reasons for the huge change though!  Over the weekend, I learned that a friend of mine is expecting her second baby so I need to start making a few more baby cards.  It’s still too early to tell whether it’s a boy or girl so I thought, why not be prepared and make both?

Here is the sketch that I did at work (again!)

Used: Papertrey Ink (Upper case Alphabet dies, Sweet Blush cardstock, Kraft cardstock, White cardstock) | Stampin’ Up (Dimensionals) | Echo Park (Life is Good pattern paper) | The Girls Paperie (Paper Girl – Shabby Flower pattern paper) | Others (rinestones – pink, Muji – light pink gel pen)
