CFC131

Here today with a new challenge from CAS-ual Fridays!
It is all about thirds!  Use three of something on your card.  Your can use three images, three elements, three colours...but here is the catch.  Only on one third of your card and of course keep your creations cleans and simple.

I used Wish Big and Exclamations for my card. I scored at the top of card and made a base line for my images with a score line.  This really helps when you are lining up a stamped pattern.  I stamped my three images, in three different colours, and then scored another line under the images after I had stamped them.  I stamped and gold embossed the ah-mazing sentiment from Exclamations over the top of the three images!  Finishing the card off with three sequins, in three matching colours!  All the excitement happens in the top third of my card.  Doesn't it sound fun?

I am also submitted this to this week's Simon Say Wednesday Challenge - Keep It Clean and Simple!

  

Make sure you check out the rest of the team's inspiration...

CCC #91

Time for another new Cue Card at CASology!

To emphasize one word on your CAS design, underline it with a marker!

When creating my design I followed the guidelines for CAS again:

1.  One main image--music note

2.  Lots of open space (uncluttered)

3.  Limited layers & embellishments-popped up panel and a Copic marker line

4.  Quick & easy to recreate

Head on over to CASology today to learn what the 'cue card' means to you, how you can play along and see the all the cards created by the Design Team to inspire you.

You are going to love the new format with more playing time, more prizes and more recognition! For a full outline of the new format click HERE.

Use at least 2 shades of gray

Now before you start searching frantically for a stamp with handcuffs on it (LOL), keep in mind that your Clean & Simple card will need to use at least two different shades of gray. How you interpret it is up to you and have fun! I can't wait to see what you come up with.

Here is my take on this month's challenge using Sands of Time.

Time for CASology Cue Card #80!

It will be interesting to see where this week's cue will go. For me I have used three shades of purple for my colour blocked sympathy card. My image was heat embossed with clear embossing powder and the sentiment stamped in black. I am also submitted my card to CAS-ual Fridays color block challenge.
