Birds and Banners

It's a double challenge this week at CAS Colours & Sketches where we give you a sketch AND a colour combo to create your CAS card with. This sketch is fab, there are so many different variations, I know because I tried at least six, and I was only using stamps, never got to the die cuts or papers!


...and here are your colours, great for a guy card, or a soft natural look, or geometric (I could go on...)


But I wont, instead I will show you my card, made using two sets, my very seldom if ever inked up Decorate A Daisy and a more recent set called Happy Congratulations.


On the photo below you can see the dimensional effect of the foam pads. I deliberately left a very large white border around the stamped panel for a cleaner look.


I even stamped inside



Hope you like my card. I think it would be good for a male or female recipient, I certainly am a bit short of birthday cards at the moment so I'm sure it will soon be sent out! happy Crafting!

  1. Wish I'd read your post before making my card - so many ideas to try! Love your banner and bauble strings.

  2. I agree with you - it's a super unisex card! I like how you've given dimension to the middle "line" of the sketch. Nicely done!
