Monster Hugs

Time for a new challenge at Addicted to CAS!
Challenge #169 - CREATURE 
Toni is our Hostess With The Mostest!

Our Guest Designer is Vicky Hayes of Crafting Clare's Paper Moments. Vicky is a very talented  card designer. Do yourself a favor and take a stroll through her blog for some wonderful inspiration. You will be so glad you did.

To make my card, I used the three little monsters (creatures) from Reverse Confetti's Monstrous Clear Stamp Set. I stamped them on watercolor paper, colored them with Zigs and cut them out with matching dies. I arranged them on a strip of SU DP that has been in my stash for years, and embossed the sentiment from the same stamp set.

Please head on over to the ATCAS Challenge Blog, take a look at the wonderful inspiration pieces Vicky and the Design Team have created for your inspiration, and make something to share in the gallery. Challenge winner will be offered a Guest Designer spot for a future challenge. Happy crafting!

Please remember that this is a CAS challenge. Here is a definition to remind you:

Grieving With You

I was looking through my list of challenge blogs today, and saw the colors for CAS On Friday.

 I love them, and immediately went to work using other inspiration from other challenges to create this sympathy card. I completed the card, and then it hit me! By my definition, the card I created is NOT a CAS card. Too much patterned space! Ugh. Still, I really love the way it turned out and though I am not entering it in the CAS On Friday challenge, there is plenty of inspiration from other places where it fits.

Paper: Neenah Solar White 110# and 80#, Patterned paper that came as a gift in a stamp order.
