I pulled out "real stamps", not digi...haha! I used the triple layered method which I haven't done in several years. I used
Charlie Bee from
Doodle Pantry.
I cased Evelyn which may had not been politically correct since it is her challenge,
CUT IT UP #68, I am entering. I enjoy entering challenges but had found myself sometimes creating a card I was not ever wanting to use, just to enter a challenge. I am trying hard now not to do that, so if another person's card pleases me, I want to case knowing I'll use it. I DO try to add a little of ME in it.

I found this challenge hard since I was not allowed white since it would be an extra color. Having to use a die cut (Charlie Bee) his legs were too skinny to cut without having some shadow. I had to turn the leaf yellow on the flower stem, but I will color over with green before sending. Thanks Evelyn for a challenging challenge...haha

What a great layout (cased or not)! Love the layers and colors and stamping. Great use of those little black dots, and your Charlie is perfect.
ReplyDeleteI'm truly honored that you liked my card enough to case it, and am very happy that we challenged you! The credit does not go to me, though. June from our design team came up with that challenge.
ReplyDeleteYour card turned out great! I like the horse/bee image. Isn't that style of stamping fun? I'm going to go through my stamps and see what else it may work with
Thanks for joining us for our Kraft + Black + 1 Other Color challenge at Cut it Up!

ReplyDeleteLove the brilliant bee with the horsey head LOL.
ReplyDeleteThat's one of the reasons I stopped doing challenges, too many cards I would never use! :o)

This is such a fun card. Love how you used the triple stamping technique and then added the humour. You rock girl.

I've never seen Charlie look more charming, Cely! The triple stamping really works on this image. Terrific design. :-D
ReplyDeleteI haven't done triple stamping for ages and I'm casing you Cely who cased Evelyn, lol! Awesome card!
ReplyDeleteAwesome triple layer! I haven't done one in forever either. And kudos on your fussy cutting - such a great card!
ReplyDeleteSuper fantabulous design Cely. Gorgeous background and Charlie pops off the card. So well done!
ReplyDeleteNow that's some fairy!
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweetie..LOving your colours and design.
ReplyDeleteI started off crafting by stamping! Sad really that I now prefer digis..cause stamping is so much fun.
