CAS.ology   Week 78: DOT

For this weeks challenge of "Dot" I thought my Perfect Polka Dot Embossing Folder would be ideal. I used only two colours to try and emphasis the dotty background.

I punched out three butterflies from my contrasting border, and added Rhinestones as another form of dot!

A stamped sentiment in the bottom finishes off my card.

Less is More Challenge -   Week 154 OLC Hearts

One-Layer Simplicity Challenge:   #1: Restocking the Shelves

The challenge for Less is More this week is a OLC using Hearts, ideal for me today, as I had to make an engagement card for friends.  

I wanted to create a frame to stamp my owl images into, so I made a heart template out of paper. This was stuck to the front of my card using some washi tape, then I repeatedly stamped my background.

After drawing a branch, I used my stamp-a-ma-jig to line up my owls. It was only after I had stamped these owls, that I realised that they too contained a heart shape which fitted in with the challenge!!

The sentiment was stamped in the same colour as the branch to complete my card.

Using my Stampin' Up! write markers I coloured my image and then stamped on to white card stock. With a corner rounder I've rounded off all the corners and added a button and some twine for extra interest.
