CASology: Row

I decided to try making a CAS card (Clean And Simple design) for CASology's challenge. The cue word for week 204 was: Row.

The stamped image is from Your Next Stamp's Silly Monsters, colored with Stabilo pens. Sentiment is my handwriting with white gel pen.

Picnic Penguin

Drifting on an iceberg and making sure he will get to your picnic in time:-). This penguin is a digital stamp from Gerda Steiner Designs.

I colored him with pencils and glitter gel pens, drew the iceberg and fussy cut the whole image. Kraft paper is used as a background.

Ice Cream Monster

Yes, it exists! I picked one of the ice cream from From the Heart Stamps's Ice Cream Lineup (free stamp of the month June) and there it was!

Colored with pencils, I added googly eyes, little dots (Glossy Accents + glitter gel pens), stripe of design paper (Folia, Origami design paper) and drew a few lines with green glitter gel pen.

Hug in a Mug

This card is for all coffee/tea/beverage lovers. And for Summer Coffee Lovers Blog Hop.

For the summer background I played with my Distress Inks (Fired Brick, Seedless Preserves, Mowed Lawn and Salty Ocean) and few drops of water. The chick is a digistamp from Gerda Steiner Designs. I just fussy cut it and colored a bit with glitter gel pens plus some Glossy Accents. The sentiment is my handwriting.

Mr. Purple goes to a party

Mr. Purple from Your Next Stamp's Silly Monsters got all dressed up for a party!

Stamped on watercolor paper with Memento Tuxedo Black ink, colored with pencils and glitter gel pens and fussy cut he waited for me to finish the basecard. I cut the front and put a large stripe of design paper to the inside of the card, then I stamped the sentiment and here goes Mr. Purple on foam tape! A few dots (glitter gel pen + Glossy Accents) and Glossy Accents on the moustache were added:-)

This card is for:

Frog and Frozen Flies

Inspired by Justine Hovey I wanted to try the ripple effect on a card and the frog from FTHS was just perfect for this.

I printed the stamp on watercolor paper and created a mask, too. For the ripple effect I used Distress Ink (Salty Ocean) and then I colored the image with pencils, glitter gel pens and DI (Mowed Lawn for the frog's body). Glossy Accents finished the popsicle and the tongue:-)
