Lots of THANKS

Hi everyone! I'm back and I'm stamping away again. So happy.

I have so many thank you cards that need to get out in the mail....I had so much to be thankful for this past Christmas. It really was a true blessing. I am in the midst of taking the Clean & Simple Card Making class being taught by Jennifer McGuire, Kristina Werner and Julie Ebersole. {I earned a spot by doing some side work for one of them. ;)}

I don't consider myself a CAS stamper. I struggle with it badly. I LOVE the look of it but really have a hard time. I always feel like I need to add more! I want to learn to be CAS and this class is really helping me with that! If you have not checked out the classes that Jen & Kristina have done, I urge you too. You can take the past classes at a reduced rate and it's self paced! Love that about these classes!

So this week I was determined to get some CAS cards done. I recently earned lots of Hero Arts stamps for doing some side work for them. I was so thrilled when they arrived and I could use this Zig Zag cling stamp! You will see this a LOT...I LOVE this stamp!



I used the Brilliance ink pad Aurora on this. It's a tri colored ink pad with shimmery colors in pink, orange and yellow. I love these ink pads. I love the colors and the shimmer gives it that "ooooh" effect. Love it. I stamped the hearts in them too. Such wonderful hearts in this set!

I'm not crazy about where my titled ended up. I put the hearts on first and then stamped and apparently didn't pay close enough attention but it's done and it's staying! ;)

Here is the second card:

I used the lime chalk in to ink up the artisan shape that I cut out of my silhouette. Again, I used Brilliance ink...this time Peacock. It's a tri-color ink too. It's pool, darker blue and a nice green. It has shimmer too! ;)

I cut the flower out of the Large background flower stamp. That stamp is so very versatile. you will see me use it a lot! All supplies for this card are here:

I'll be back tomorrow with another card. Until then Happy Stamping! :)
