Tuesday Trigger + CASology & Retrosketch

It's always a good day when I have time to make a couple of cards.

First up is one for the Moxie Fab World Tuesday Trigger: Pretty Little Petits Fours. I am so glad this was a three week challenge, because I'm really happy with the card I made.



I inked white shimmer cardstock with Spun Sugar distress ink to make my "Petits Fours" squares and topped them with vellum flowers. A touch of color is added with Copic markers and the centers are silver micro beads.




The shimmer squares sit on a wood embossed panel that is attached to a silver shimmer card base. 




This second card is based on the current retrosketch and the CASology cue word "hexagon".






I really liked the saturated colors and hexagon panel on the CASology Design Team member Tracey's card which led me to this creation.



This was a very fast card to make - both the hexagon panel and the sentiment flag are popped up with dimensional adhesive.




Carpool duties are calling me, so I have to run!

Thanks for stopping by,

Jacquie
