CASology # 188 LAUGH

Time for a new CASology challenge! This week we need your interpretations of LAUGH.

My card features a saying I often found myself muttering during the first year of my twin daughters lives. My older daughter was just 2 when they were born and as you can imagine things were crazy! So crazy that you couldn't help but just laugh. I'm sure you've been there! :) 

I used PTI Drips and Dribbles to create a background on the lower half of the card. I adhered a onesie diecut (from PTI Bitty Baby Blessings in PTI Fine Linen dotted paper) on top of the background and added the sentiment from AMuse. 

Take a look at the amusing and amazing takes on LAUGH from the design team....you are sure to be inspired!

Create Along With Us January 2016

There were SO many fabulous DT creations with the last PTI release. But I was very inspired by this particular one by Lizzie Jones to create a card for the PTI Create Along With Us challenge:

I loved how the dots of multicolored splatter were peeking out beneath the butterflies. Since I don't have this pretty little cover plate yet, I was inspired to create this card using the largest Beautiful Butterflies die as my focal point. I also used Drips and Dribbles to create the background in the same fun color combo Lizzie used.

I used foam tape to adhere the center of the butterfly on top of the dot splatters and pushed the wings back a little bit for added dimension. Sentiment is from Perfect Pairing. Love how it turned out...I'm definitely doing this again. Can imagine a set of cards with different color combinations....fun! 

First signs of snow here in NJ today....its a little long overdue but I'm still not ready for it. Hope you are having a great weekend. Thanks for popping by!

More Coffee!

I have another card using the MFT Clearly Sentimental About Coffee sentiment set but this time I paired it with PTI Drips and Dribbles. I love the look of the coffee rings which I stamped randomly on the card panel in PTI Fine Linen, Kraft, and Dark Chocolate around the masked diagonal sentiment strip. The coffee mug is from PTI Cup of Cheer. Colors inspired by this week's Colour Me....Monochromatic challenge. 

Love this sentiment...I say it all the time and believe it completely.

Hope you had a great weekend! Thanks for popping in!
