Today I have used the
Glittery And Sparkling digital stamp from The Paper Shelter
and the
Scandinavian Flowers clear stamps from Neat and Tangled
to make some fancy folds and CAS cards.
First up are my fancy folds. I opened the pre-coloured Glittery And Sparkling digital stamp from The Paper Shelter on my Silhouette Studio design mat, along with a cut file for an easel card (links to this fancy fold are below) and sized the image to fit the front panel. I added a digital sentiment to the back panel (font details below) and the little sentiment "easel wedge" then coloured the background of the image panel pink, along with the top panel where the sentiment "easel wedge", printed on textured cardstock then cut with my Cameo. I cut the contrasting layers and bases, scored the folds then adhered the layers to make a pair of magical birthday cards with fabulous fancy folds.
Next comes some inky fun with the Scandinavian Flowers clear stamps from Neat and Tangled and my MISTI. Using "Copic friendly" Memento Tuxedo Black ink, I repeat stamped one of the flourished leaf stamps, added the flowers to make a delicate floral "sun" then stamped the sentiment. I coloured the flowers and leaves with Copic markers then adhered the image panel to a card base to make a pair of pretty CAS cards.
Don't you think the sentiment is delightful?
In case you can't read it clearly, it says
" TRUE FRIENDS ARE LIKE THE SUN.
THEY ALWAYS SHINE. "
... that's what inspired me to stamp my pair of "floral suns".

I hope I have inspired you to get creative and look forward to seeing your work shared in the challenge gallery. Remember we are not just a card blog, we love to see scrapbook layouts, artjournal pages and all types of papercraft.
