Love Ya - no matter what.

Hi, Dawn here with some inspiration for you.  Cas-ual Fridays Stamps is our sponsor

Our theme - Anything Goes!! 

(Just remember to include a die cut &/or use an embossing folder.)


Prize - $20 gift card to their store (USA or Canadian resident only), randomly picked from eligible May entries 

My card today uses older Cas-ual Fridays stamp and die... but there are lots of great product on the website (Here)



For my card I have used a Cas-ual Fridays "Catherine's Background" stamped in 4 purple inks from Altenew.  I inked it up and lightly spritzed with water and stamped onto some white cardstock.  I trimmed the panel down so it would fit onto the purple die cut panel.  The scalloped panel is from Gina K Master Layout #4.  I added dimension to the stamped panel with some cheap card stock.   The sentiment is Cas-ual Fri Dies - Girlfriend was die cut from the same purple as scalloped die and layered up with 3 layers.  The sub-sentiment is from the Girlfriend stamp set.  I added a few die cut flowers (left over from the other days die cutting) for embellishment. 

Thanks for stopping and we hope to see you in our May Gallery!

Dawn and the Divas.

With Sympathy -

 Hi.  Dawn here to share a card today. 

 Our sponsor this month is Joy Clair Designs


and we have a Tic Tac Toe challenge


I chose to use the right hand side - at least 2 layers, colour yellow. flowers


I have 3 layers (not including the base) - my first layer is the yellow matting...on top of this is  a white embossed layer.  I printed the Joy Clair image and used a used a Spellbinder die to cut it out.  For my colour yellow - my little bird and the flower - was the one the bird's mouth.  The heartfelt sentiment is also from the Joy Clair set which is "Refresh the Soul"  I printed it before doing the embossing. 

Do come and play with out Tic Tac Toe challenge.  You can find the link up HERE
