CAS Colours & Sketches Challenge #355
Hey! Thanks for stopping by my little happy spot. Take a look around and hope you enjoy.
We would love to see what card creation you can bring to life. Please consider, taking a minute to post your card creation in our challenge gallery at CAS Colours & Sketches.
Our final January challenge at CAS Colours & Sketches is a sketch that opens the door to various manners of interpretation! I hope you have some great ideas pop into your head and I would love to see what you came up with for this challenge.
I have been dying to use this new Little Ladybug Stamp set from Sale-A-Bration. I spent some time stamping and coloring the ladybug images red and some are yellow with the Stampin’ Blends Combo packs . Not sure if there are Yellow ladybugs everywhere, but I have seen quite a few here in Alabama. The yellow ladybug is what inspired the use of yellow for this card.
I used all but 1 of the ladybug images on this card. The absolute best part is that I was able to die cut all of these little guys that I colored, to use on another project with the coordinating die set that will be released 3 February 2020.
The dry embossed image is from the Country Floral embossing folder. I used a sponge dauber to get the Daffodil delight into the rose images. It was a bit tougher, but I managed to get a bit of Old Olive into some of the leafy images. The pictures do not do the Old Olive any justice, it truly does look better on the card.
Thanks again for stopping by and spending a bit of your time with me. I hope you enjoyed learning about how this card came together. Hopefully you were even inspired just a bit. Below are pictured links to all the items used for this card, click the link of the item to be taken to my online store where you can learn more about each item. If you would like to learn more about this challenge or to see what other talented designers have created for this challenge, hop on over to CAS Colours & Sketches. I will return soon with something new. Until then, stay safe, and by all means keep crafting, exploring and creating. See you soon.

Fun card, Shannon! Great job with the sketch!
I love those lady bugs, so cute.
Thank you.
I love what you did with the embossed background! Very cute.
Thank you, it is a relief to see the background was a good choice….it was a struggle!
Thank you. So glad to hear you like the embossed background – I struggled with different backgrounds, but in the end it made more sense and therefore won!
Thank you so much. I love Ladybugs, and with faces like that….who can resist?
What cute ladybirds Shannon! Their expressions are priceless! Vicky x
Cute little ladybugs. They’re great against the floral background.
Such cute ladybugs are! The embossed background is also great.
