As I was perusing the challenge blogs, I saw this one from As You See It, and
decided to play.
As You See It #301 - Swift Seashells, is a speed stamping challenge with the theme of seashells. Create your
project in under 10 minutes. I also wanted to participate in Color Throwdown
#748 where the colors are red, blue and brown.
My card is very simple with a white heat embossed image of a row of seashells
on Kraft cardstock, with a sentiment that has a sandy font stamped in blue,
and some red and white twine around the top tied in a bow. It was done in 8
minutes and 27 seconds.

Awesome CAS design and so perfect for the throwdown colors! I love that seashell image! Thanks for joining us at CTD this week!
ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous design! I love the crispness of the white embossing on the Kraft base. The touches of red and blue add a nautical twist. Thanks for sharing this with us at As You See It.
ReplyDeleteLook at you getting all clever sneaking in those three colors - you rocked it out, Stephanie! And have the most wonderful seashore sets!

Wow! You're an expert right off the top with these speed stamping challenges! That embossed image is so perfect and looks amazing on the kraft cardstock! The blue and red touches lend just the right nautical feel! Thanks for getting your speed on with us at As You See It Challenges!
ReplyDeleteStephanie this card is CAS perfection - that embossed row of seashells against the kraft reminds me of the foam of the sea edge against the sand. Just beautiful. Thanks for playing with us over at As You See It!
