It was another freezing weekend here in NW Iowa, so I was excited that I didn't have any plans or errands to run outdoors. Instead, I got to spend the weekend in my craft room, making stuff. Here is the first card I have to share with you.
I absolutely love this card, although this is attempt #4. I couldn't get the idea in my head, to cooperate with my hands. lol Finally, I masked the oval and the butterflies in the center, for an easy (almost) one layer card, added some twine and flowers and was done with it. It's my attempt to get more comfortable, and better, at the CAS type of cards. I hope the recipient of this card likes it. I am excited to combine the following challenges in my card.
Seize The Birthday: Birthday w/optional toppings of hearts and/or arrows (there are hearts on my butterfly wings)
Addicted To CAS #57: Mask
Papertake Weekly: Bingo - I chose blooms, free spot & ribbon (I used twine)
CASology #134: Monochrome
CAS(E) This Sketch #111: Sketch
Show CASe Your Style #9: Birthday
I'll be back soon with another something crafty. I hope you have a wonderful week!
Hugs!
