Stamp Something CAS

Yes! CAS, right up my alley! We are doing CAS Thank-you's today and This week for Stamp Something we are also honoring our dear sweet, Lauren. I was giddy looking through her blog. I love Lauren's style and the fact that she uses SO much PTI. I chose to CASE this card of Lauren's. Here's what I did.I changed up the colors combo, the stamps, and the placement of the sentiment. I think you can see where and how I was inspired by her card. I've been trying hard to play around with some different color combos with my PTI stash. This one is Aqua Mist, Melon Berry (I used groovy guava) and Ripe Avocado. What do you think? All stamps are SU!-5th Ave Floral and Only Ovals. Be back soon with my part in the Unity Blog Hop. But be sure to stop by the Stamp Something Blog to see all the CAS Than-you cards made. Hugs, Lisa

Recreating Myself...

...well, my first uploaded card, anyway. After Kristin saw this post of mine from earlier this week she was inspired to go looking for her first upload. Then we chatted about the challenge and thought it would be fun to re-create our own first card and give it an updated look.

So here it is, my updated and recreated self. I love this layout and have done some similar over the years. I used the 5th Ave. Floral stamp set to stamp the flower images on the main panel and added the sentiment from Great Friend (yes, I love this little scripty "for you"). I did some stitching around the outside to create a fun border and finished it off with a ribbon tab and a corduroy button. The dsp I used is Urban Oasis. I challenge you to come do the same. It really is fun. Here are the full deets on the "official" challenge, over on the GSG Blog. Hugs, Lisa
