CASology Week 283: GLIMMER

Welcome to Week 283 at CASology!

STAMPlorations is our sponsor this week and I am one of the lucky design team members to receive a stamp set to use on my card. I love the outline letters on the Big Greetings - Shery Russ Designs sentiments and initially stamped the "happy" with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored in the letters with a rainbow selection of Copic markers.

The sentiment is stamped again with Versamark ink and heat embossed with a holographic embossing powder, adding a bit of GLIMMER to the card. The enamel dots also reinforce the glimmer cue word as their shimmery finish catches the light.

The design team has fabulous interpretations of the word GLIMMER!

CASology Week 282: HUG

Welcome to Week 282 at CASology!

At first glance, this may look like a Valentine's Day card but I'm using it as a birthday card to send virtual hugs & kisses along with happy birthday wishes. Why just send one hug when I can send a couple, along with kisses, by using an abbreviated image to send the message?

The Lawn Fawn Scripty XOXO is die cut from a white panel and backed with a piece of transparency. Foam adhesive is added to the back, creating the walls for an empty space behind the die cut to hold the red micro beads and irridescent pink heart confetti.When creating a shaker space like this, run a Qtip dipped in talcum powder along the inside edge of the foam adhesive to stop the beads from adhering to the foam.

Check out the design team cards for wonderful inspiration!

CASology Week 281: ENCOURAGE

Welcome to Week 281 at CASology!

 

I hope everyone survived the holidays, had a happy New Year and is eager to get back to some creating! We have a couple of changes to the CASology design team as Judy Marino and Sherrie Mannion have decided to step down. Their creative talent will be missed, but this does open an opportunity for you to apply to join the team! Melissa has posted all the details for the Design Team Call on the CASology blog. Please take a look and consider applying by the January 12 deadline.

For my card this week, I thought about how a few friends and I are renewing health & wellness goals that were ignored over that last couple months. This card will be going to one of them in a few weeks for a little extra encouragement.

The Mama Elephant sentiment was stamped first with teal and black inks and then the PTI vase and greenery added. The panel is popped up on a white card base for a little extra interest.

Check out the beautiful design team cards for more great ideas!
