More colours

Week three of my Guest Designer spot at CAS Colours and Sketches and it's round to another colour palette.

I find some combinations tricky, but this one feels a little jazzy and somewhat rock and roll so hence the drum kit. It was a downloadable image from the Internet with splats from inks as close to the designated colours as I could manage. The stamps are from Stampin' Up and Stamplorations and the sentiment was computer generated in VNI-Thufap2 font, which is freely downloadable.

It's a simple one layer card... very CAS!

Repetition

The theme over at "Less is More" this week is  Repetition.

I guess you could repeat whatever you fancied but I chose to repeat the Happy Birthday.

This was the card for my husband... I relish the fact that for a few weeks he appears a year older than me, but I soon catch up!

Here is another 

Computer generated sentiment, double die cut wellies, and die cut cloud and raindrops!

Today should have been the final day of my cruise to the Mediterranean. It still seems a little odd that we didn't go, but I hope that the cruise we are taking next year in compensation for forfeiting this one will be amazing!
Tomorrow I shall be meeting Darnell at Heathrow! Good times are ahead!

Time for a Sketch

Here is my card for the second week of my Guest spots at Colours and Sketches!

This is simply a bundle of die cuts!

Sizzix - Wire bundle and wild flower

Memory Box - butterfly

SSS - Floral spray

Hero Arts - Congrats

Embellishments - Crystal gems and Nuvo Drops in Silver Lining

The card for the base of the butterfly was coloured using Inka Gold paste, mixed with Distress Inks and spritzed with water and then prints were taken using card.

We should still be on our Mediterranean cruise, I've just about round to the notion that we will be taking it next year instead, when I hope the cruise line won't be overbooked again!

Clockwork

Last month when the One Layer Challenge came around at "Less is More" I merrily went ahead and made a Splatter card... forgetting that it was one layer week... this month ... guess what.. I did exactly the same thing. I was so anxious to use this Kaisercraft stamp that all thought of the one layer element left my mind. Anyway here is take 2!

The sentiment is from Paper Smooches which I think fits the theme beautifully!

Using my MISTI helps enormously to get the stamp square on to the card... always a tricky process!

Here is the version where I forgot about the one layer!

I really must be getting old!

I'm going to link this one to the the challenge at Twofers challenge as their theme is clocks/time

Why not join in the fun!
