Hi everyone. I'm so excited to be the Guest Designer at CAS-ology today!! :) I was given this opportunity because I won a couple of weeks ago with this card. Thanks Melissa!!
Here's the new challenge ...
I don't have a lot of musical stamps, but I did have this wonderful sentiment and every time I use it, I sing the song in my head. :)
I kept my card very CAS by making it a one layer ... well there's actually two as I almost ALWAYS add a smaller panel for my card front ... no exception here. :) But the card front itself is one layer. Just a little masking and sponging created my peaceful scene. I added movement and interest with markers ... brown for the flying birds, and white for the waves of the ocean.
Please click HERE to check out the challenge and see the amazing cards from the Design Team. I hope you'll join us for this fun challenge! :)
Stamps: Sunny Sentiments (Amy R)
Ink: Bermuda Bay, Daffodil Delight, Pumpkin Pie, Early Espresso (SU!)
Accessories & Tools: Sponges, post-it notes for masking, circle stencil made with my circle nestabilities (Spellbinders), plastic acetate sheet
Challenges:

Another great card Loll. I used to sing this song to my eldest son when he was a tiny baby! I love visiting your blog and have just watched the video for the card that won you the GD spot at CASology this week. Lots of great tips and techniques, especially using a blender pen, it certainly does make a difference and I will be trying it out soon. Thanks. Stef x

Beautiful inking and a fun take on the challenge theme! It has really brightened my day :)
ReplyDeleteLoll, beautiful card. I love this song, its one that I constantly sing as I do things around the house. My daughter, who is special needs, loves it too and often prompts me 'you my sunshine' meaning sing it again.
ReplyDeleteLove the arrangement of your pretty images - so pleasing to the eye! (and to the recipient of the card!)
ReplyDeleteGorgeous. Perfectly CAS and a great sentiment.
ReplyDeleteCongrats, Loll! I love how you used the theme! What a stunning scene you've created! I am going to be hearing that song the rest of the day :)
ReplyDeleteLove this, Loll! Love the scene you've created.
ReplyDeleteThis is a stunning card--so very peaceful and CAS. Now, I have that song running through my mind (which is a good thing). So wonderful to have you here with us as our Guest Designer this week.
ReplyDelete"...you make me happy when skies are grey..." What a great song and what a beautiful one-layer card, Loll! I adore the white lines in the ocean, brilliant!!! So great to have you as a Guest designer this week at CASology!

This is so beautiful Loll.
ReplyDeleteSuperb Loll! Love your inking and clever hand-drawn additions! Such a talented card-maker! So fantastic to have you guesting with us at CASology this week!!
ReplyDeleteFabulous work, Loll!
ReplyDeleteHow fab that you're the CAS GD...Great choice they made too! I am always so amazed at the depth & perspective you achieve with your CAS scenes. This one fairly sings and what a perfect sentiment to go with this bright sunshine water. It's soothing, but yet at the same time, the 'movement' of the birds & water ripples makes it come alive. Brilliant card. TFS & Hugs.
ReplyDeleteWow Loll, this is a very peaceful card for sure! I love the sweet scene you have created, it looks so real I think I can hear the ocean and birds. You always make the best CAS cards! Hugs, Brenda
ReplyDeleteOne of my favorite songs and one that I sang to my girls. This makes me want to go to the beach! A beautiful scene!
ReplyDeleteWith all the comments about singing this song, I guess you captured the "music" cue perfectly, Loll. And the sun coming up over the water is inky perfection.
ReplyDeleteI just love this gorgeous design Loll - such a perfect cas card and a great sentiment too! Hugs xx
ReplyDeleteWhat a great CAS card! Love it!
