Hello my friends. I'm back again this week with a CAS card. Since I have discovered the LIM challenge I do try to participate as often as i can. I am learning that sometimes it is more difficult to create these cards than the more fancy ones - at least it takes more thought for me.
This week the ask was to use designer papers and I decided to use soem HOTP papers that I have had for years. They were from a kit that I had bought from QVC.
I chose 2 co-ordinating papers and a sentiment from the same pack.
I decided to do some stamping. I used my second favourite stamp from Claritystamp, matrix feather. I used squeezed lemonade and peacock feathers and stamped 2 large images and 2 small images on the base card.
Using the same stamps and this time dandelion and forget-me-not archival ink, i stamped on shrink plastic.
Once I had cut them out and shrunk them, I assembled the card as shown. Below is the inside if the card.
I would love to read your thoughts, Theresa xx
I would like to enter this card in the following challenges:
Simply less is more - lucky dip: designer paper
Word Art Wednesday - anything goes
CASology - move (feathers floating and make up wings that help in movement)
Loving your card !
