The idea I had for this challenge was a Mother's Day card for my Mum, but it evolved into this pretty number. Reasonably classic, very CAS but not for my mum next Sunday.
What you need
Cardstock - SU grey, white
Stamps - Verve Great Friend, Because of You
Ink - SU Pretty in Pink, Pool Party
Gems - Kaisercraft

It seems there are birthdays going on everywhere at the moment. This one is for my brother-in-law, the celebration was today but not sure exactly when the big day is. It is very hard to see the glittery "50", as my camera is basic and doesn't take the best photos, but it looks very effective in real life.
As it is Simon Says Stamps 3rd birthday as well I will enter it for that challenge as well
What you need
Cardstock - BB black; cardboard
Patterned paper - SU Mocha Morning; Doodlebug glitter Lily White
Dies - PTI Wonderful Words, lower case letters, numbers
Other - Kindyglitz (black); Darice black glitter
Oh, such pretty flowers in your first card--and wonderful cutting job as always. If not for Mother's Day, it would make a great birthday card! Your second is really stunning--the glitter really makes an impact. I'll bet BIL was thrilled!
ReplyDeleteGreat cards, Cassandra! I especially love that dramatic black / gray card. Those glittery numbers are so festive!
