 Hello-

 

No challenges...just a man card.

I used some old SU patterned papers in green and blue. I like the sketchy feel of it...and it kinda carries through on my stamping which is a bit sketchy too. Lol.  I think it works.

I broke my Vagabond a while back, and replaced it with the gemini jr.  I have been a bit gun shy about using it for embossing folders however.  I'd been using my old spellbinders grand calibur for embossing. On a whim, I tried using my old texture boutique (little hand bag looking thing from sizzix and stampin up years ago) It worked a dream even on those thick 3d embossing folders...did you know you do not need to put a plate on both sides of those to emboss/run them through your die cutter? I used just the bottom plate with the folder on top.  Who knew. 

So as long as I am using those that are not the 6x6 squares I've got a perfect solution. Just thought I'd share. 

Thanks for stopping in.

CAS on Friday 124 and Case this Sketch 255

Hi there,

It's Monday and here in my home that is Laundry day and a perfect time to make a few cards. 

CAS on Friday's challenge 124 is Love/Valentine's Day Card

After making my first card I made a second using the same stamp set, 

and followed the sketch from Case this Sketch 255.

Both cards are clean and simple so both will play at CAS on Friday, 

and the second card goes to Case this sketch as well.

 I love these colors, they take me back to my wedding day.

Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by.
