EASY CAS card with an Altenew Craft Your Life kit!
Hi all! What a crazy start to summer! In the last 5 days, I brought my oldest daughter home from college this week, hosted a cookie decorating class which meant I needed to bake 12 dozen cut-out cookies, it was my youngest's last day of school yesterday and I left today for the holiday weekend with my hubby to camp in Petoskey Michigan. It will be nice to get a little break from life, but it's hard to leave when there is so much that needs to be done around the house to prepare for the summer!
CAS card designs are PERFECT for a busy mom. This is for our new challenge at CAS on Friday BIG HUGS. To make this card even easier to whip out in no time...using Altenew's Craft Your Life kit. Seriously, it comes with EVERYTHING you need to make gorgeous cards....dies, stamps, embossing folders, and stencils. I just love them!
This card uses Altenew's Sunshine Flowers CYL kit. Perfect for this challenge since the sentiment in the kit has 'big hugs' in 2 different sizes included...total score. Altenew's Molded Lines stencil was ink blended with Warm Sunshine onto the card base for the background.
Using the kit's stamp and coordinating stencil, the flower was created with Altenew's Wisteria, Hydrangea and Ultra Violet for the petals; Buttercream and Warm Sunshine for the center and Minty Mint; Volcano Lake and Lagoon for the leaves. After stenciling, the black outline stamp was added and die cut with the coordinating die. Finally, it was also embossed to give it some subtle texture with the matching embossing folder.
After the flower was finished, it was cut in half...gasp....and added to the bottom of the card. To finish the card, the bigger 'big hugs' sentiment was stamped with Obsidian ink and 3 enamel dots were added.
Now go make a huggable CAS card and share it in our gallery now! We love to see your work! Have a colorful day!
