CAS - Colours and Sketches





Well I made the Top 3 of the Around the World Stampin' Up! Challenge - I was really happy especially as it was my first ever entry to a challenge blog. I will work out how to add the badge to my side bar at some point! ( I used to be technically savvy and then I had children and my brain no longer functions the way it used to - baby brain it's called).

Anyway I now have the blog challenge bug and I have made this card to enter the CAS - Colours and Sketches Challenge - Sketch # 51.

Here's the sketch:



And here's my interpretation of it:


I recently bought the Circle Card Thinlits die and had it already when I saw the sketch for the challenge. Fits perfectly I thought!

For this project you would need:

Circle Card Thinlits die 133480,
A4 Card stock - Whisper White 106549, Soft Sky 131292, Strawberry Slush 131300,
Silver Glimmer paper 124005,
Stamps - Travel Journal Wheel 126937
Ink pads - Smoky Slate 131179,
Re-inkers - Smoky Slate 131159, Strawberry Slush 131167,
Tools: Aqua painters 103954, Big Shot 113439, Simply Stripes TIEF 132174,
Punches:  2-1/2" Circle 120906, Artisan label 130920 , Bitty Butterfly 129406 and Elegant Butterfly 127526,

I hope you like it!
