First, I just want to say thanks to everyone for the Blog Love today. I especially want to say thanks to Darnell over at djkardkreations for featuring me on her blog today. I also want to say thanks to the ladies over at Colour Me...!, I received an honourable mention for my Thank you card posted earlier this week.
If you would like to have a look at that card, please check it out HERE!
So I just want to do a quick post before I head to bed (code word for watch Olympic Curling till I pass out! Go Canada!). Tonight is Hubby's pool night with the guys so I took some time to pull together a really quick card for a few challenges.
First, I took my inspiration from the Week 3 Spring Sketch on Create with Connie & Mary. I am in love with banners so I thought this was an absolutely fabulous sketch.
I then thought about the Late Night Stampers Challenge Blog which runs a two week challenge and the newest one is to use either wet or dry embossing on your project. This was right up my alley. I love how white embossing powder looks on black so I decided that this would be my feature banner and would also contain my sentiment.
Finally, I was intrigued by the CASology Cue Card:
I love the BOLD patterns in the newest Kaleidoscope DSP from Stampin' Up!. I'm not really sure if this will qualify as a CAS card but it was super quick and easy to make and from my point of view, there is a lot of "white space" as a lot of the DSP is being shown.
All that to say, here is my card for the evening:
