July-Ween

 Hello Everyone,

I've been hearing the term July-ween a lot lately. I am hoping that phrase doesn't stick. Why do we have to keep rushing everything? Today I have a card to share that I created for The Paper Players #796. Christy has a great sketch challenge for us. I pulled out a new Halloween suite for my card.

CAS Colours and Sketches #590 Colour Challenge

Good Morning Everyone and Welcome to my blog,

We are back with another round of CAS Colours and Sketches Challenges. Joanne is hosting this color challenge round. She has a fun summer-ish color combo to work with. I also played around with fall leaves with these colors. I cant wait to see what your creative brains come up with. I used a fun bundle and some two tone card stock to create my card. I lucked into a neat look for my flower pot. I had a very inky Stampin' Spot that created some fun texture.

*Please remember to keep your card CAS! As a reminder, 'clean and simple' (CAS) is defined as "uncluttered, with a lot of white or open space, and minimal layers and embellishments". Subtle texture or shading is okay as long as it does not distract from the main focal point of your card. 

I hope you join us at CC&S this week. We would love to see what you create for this Color challenge. You can enter your project from now until 7:00pm EST on Monday, August 3, 2026. You can find all the rules and requirements on the challenge page.
