Postage Due- a CASE

CASEing is something I do on occasion sometimes, like after a summer of not being able to stamp I find stamping hard to do. So the next few cards I blog will be cards I CASEd while waiting for my mojo to come back. One of my favorite people I go to for inspiration is Leeann at Wee Inklings so that is where I went.
The card I CASEd is here.

  • The card base is Crumb Cake. I inked up the stamp from Postage Due with Crumb Cake and stamped it twice on the base.
  • I went to my scraps and pull two pieces from the DSP Fan Fair. I found a piece of Riding Hood Red that had be embossed with the Argyle Embossing Folder and I narrow strip of Island Indigo that had been embossed with the Square Lattice Embossing Folder. So those two pieces of CS along with a piece of DSP (the map) from Fan Fair were layered on the left side of the card covering where there wasn't any ink.
  • I stamped the postage stamp images from the same set in More Mustard, Island Indigo and Riding Hood Red and punched them out with the Postage Stamp Punch. The More Mustard stamps are adhered directly to the front while the other three are popped up with Dimensionals.
This is another card I left without a sentiment.  So there you are, one of the cards I CASEd waiting for my mojo to return.

Remember I am giving away blog candy so check the top of the page for details.

Two by Two

I don't know if you have the same problem as me, but if I have been unable to stamp for awhile I find it hard to do. So my go to is Watercoloring. Here is what I made.

  • Card base is So Saffron with the front embossed with the Chevron Embossing Folder.
  • The image was stamped on Watercolor Paper with Stazon and colored with Ink and an Aqua Painter. The image was then cut out with the Label Framelit.
  • I used the next size larger Label Framelit to cut a piece of Midnight Muse CS, I then embossed it with the Argyle Embossing Folder.
I think it makes a fun baby card, what do you think?
