Addicted to CAS wants to see a window.
I found a bit of leftover background (probably smooshed with various
Distress inks) in my UFO box. I stamped the Magenta stamp onto it (the
sentiment is part of the stamp) in brown, trimmed it down to fit behind a
die cut window (cut twice and glued together for more dimension), and
popped it up on fun foam.
And Penny Black Saturday Challenge wants to see something funny. I created my own humorous sentiment for it.
I made this card for my niece who has a wonderful English bulldog called
Norman. Norman's favourite thing to do is sleep so this image is
totally perfect as the bulldog is asleep while all his friends enjoy
their boat ride.
I typed and printed a sentiment to fit the scene. Watercoloured the image, bordered with navy cs that I trimmed with my deckle trimmer.

Two great cards Susan, and I love the pretty scene using the Magenta tree branches filled with sweet little birds and a great sentiment too, and perfect on your smooshed scrap, and I love the beautiful stylish window shape. The second is such a fun card for your niece with the cute dogs in their boat, and love the colouring and the deckle edge is perfect on the added mat, and the added sentiment referring to the sleeping pooch at the back being her dog Norman will surely make her smile. x
ReplyDeleteBeautiful Susan, the window looking out on the bird filled trees is so tranquil and the dogs in the boat so cute :)
ReplyDeleteLOVE the window looking outside with all those lovely birds in the trees. Perfect sentiment. And great card for your niece! She will love that Norman plays a major role in the design. :) xx
ReplyDeleteThe view outside the window is so peaceful and I can almost hear the birds. Norman is a hoot and I love that you made the story for the card. Your niece will love this.
ReplyDeleteA lovely view out of your pretty window Susan - and I just love the fun sentiment you created for your dogs in the boat (I have that stamp - must get it out!!!) xx
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful scene you made for your window Susan! I love that the rest of the card is white which really focuses the eye on that luminous scene. Thank you for coming to play at Addicted to CAS. Love your other card too - really made me smile! Vicky x
ReplyDeleteA beautiful scene from a lovely window, Susan! Great use of a smooshed leftover background piece.
ReplyDeleteThe second card is so cute and fun! Love your personalized humorous sentiment! Your niece will love the card!
