Wow. I know. It’s been awhile. I just don’t think I’m ever going to get on a regular posting schedule. 😦 I have been crafting though. 🙂

Anyhoo, I’m here to join in with this months Papertrey ink Blog Hop! This month the challenge is Silver and Gold.

This is just one of the inspiration pics. Pretty gorgeous, huh? 🙂

Here is my take,

I used silver glitter and gold embossing powder. For the layout I was inspired by a Pinterest card, but I’m having problems linking it. If you want to see the original, just look me up on Pinterest (Lauren Anderson) and it’s on my Cards I Heart 5 board. 🙂

Hope you like it! I really had fun making it!

CAS-ual Fridays #129 Shades Of Gray

All Occasion, Card, CAS-ual Fridays, Challenge, Papertrey Ink

Hello again today! I have another card I made a couple days ago for the CAS-ual Fridays Shades of Gray Challenge 🙂

Here is my card,

I used a scrap sheet of Stamper’s Select White paper and then my trusty blank CD case to stamp on some Smokey Shadow ink to use as water color. Then, I took a paint brush and water and just dabbed on the ink making some places darker with less water and lighter with more water. I didn’t use brush strokes, I simply dabbed up and down like I was dipping a chip in dip…does that make sense? LOL! Then I used my Wonderful Words: Hello Die to die cut the sentiment…added a little Heidi Swapp Tinsel Color Shine Spray to the background, a strip of DP to ground the sentiment and some enamel dots for good measure 🙂

Hope you like it!

Hello, there. I have a card here for CASE Study #152. I just love this “starburst” trend going on. 🙂

Fabulous colors and love the bottom corner angle 🙂 Here is my take,

I don’t know if you know this, but I LOVE PTI. LOL. One of my favorite stamp and die sets is Hello Sunshine. I used the dies to make the rainbow “burst” on my panel. (I also used it recently on a layout. I keep meaning to share my layouts with you guys. One day…lol.)

Hey there. I felt like trying out the Moxie Fab World Trendy Triangles Challenge. 🙂 Here is my entry,

I wanted to do something w/ triangles falling every which direction, and also use my favorite ink colors…after I was done I realized that the colors were very similar to THIS card that I did for the Moxie Fab Ombre challenge. I’m not lying when I say these are my favorite ink colors! 🙂
