Dinosaur Thank You Card

I was able to make two cards today for a CAS-ual Fridays Challenge:

First up is this cute dinosaur!

I stamped and heat embossed the dinosaur in red. Then, cut it out and adhered it with foam tape.

The sentiment was stamped three times (generational stamping) and some grass was added, too.

Supplies:

Dinosaur and grass (Stampin'Up! - I know, I know...not CTMH but he's a cutie, isn't he?)

A True Thank You (M1029-Close to My Heart)

embossing powder (Ranger)

Memento Paris Dusk ink pad

VersaMark watermark stamp pad

Cheer Up Card

This card is CAS (clean and simple)! And easy to make! I was able to create it while my toddler was taking a nap and the baby was being entertained by Cheerios...

I used the stamp set from Laughing Lola Cardmaking Kit, some foam tape and sequins.

The colors (aqua, green and orange) were inspired by the CFC112 challenge at CAS-ual Fridays and the card sketch is from CAS(E) this Sketch! #41, but I changed the card orientation.

And since I don't have a lot of time to craft lately, I'm also entering this card in another challenge Blog, H2H CTMH Challenge Blog - Sentiment-ally Yours!

Glasses Thanks Card

I card I made for my brother-in-law, who fixed my husband's sunglasses...

I used 2 stamp sets from CTMH: 

C1535 Puns of Praise and

D1542 For a Friend.

I used foam tape for a bit of dimension and Copic markers, for some color and some more dimension.

Father's Day Card

Father's Day is just around the corner...

I made this for my husband...hopefully he won't read my blog... =)

I used the same stamp for the background, and the texture on the rosette and ribbons. The stamp set is called Distressed Backgrounds and is available HERE.

I bought the foam embellishment at Hobby Lobby a while ago...finally put it to use!

Can you guess how the tone-on-tone ribbons were made? I might have a tutorial for that...Would you like one?

Leave me comment! I'd love to hear from you!

It's called For a Friend (D1542) and it's a new set from the 2013 CTMH Spring/Summer Idea Book & Catalog.
Just a little sneak peek of what's coming in February...
