CAS(E) this Sketch #313

Good morning everyone!  Are you ready for another sketch?  We are still having some growing pains with the new link up so I will continue to include a text link as well as the button at the bottom of each post.  That way if the button isn't showing up for you, the link will be there also.  Hopefully, this won't be a problem and was just a little glitch last week.  So, lets get to this week's sketch it is a blast from the past and you can see the original line up of inspiration here:  CTS #155.  Let's see what everyone did with it this time around.


Our guest designer this week is an amazing card maker and friend, Jennifer.  Jennifer's cards are always so cheerful and full of color and I am always amazed when she makes me look at something in a different way.  Her card for this week's sketch made me do just that.  It's awesome and gave me a, "why didn't I think of that" moment.  ;)  Make sure to check out here blog, Maple Street Menagerie, and let her know how happy we are to have her with us this week!



Here's what the rest of the team created:

Altenew Ultimate Challenge Blog Hop


Good morning everyone in the CAS(E) this Sketch universe!  I have something a little different for you guys today.  Not only am I posting something on a Tuesday but I'm celebrating a ton of amazing challenge blogs along with Altenew on the Altenew Ultimate Challenge Blog Hop!  If you are here to find the current challenge, you can find it here but I hope you'll check out this blog hop as well.  I thought you'd get a kick out of that.  Just check out all the blogs that are participating:


There is no lack of inspiration there.  I was thrilled when May contacted me to get involved.  What could be better than a blog hop celebrating all the amazing challenge blogs out there?  Maybe getting to see the owners of the challenge blogs create projects using Altenew products and sharing them all for your inspiration?  Well, you are on the right hop then!  Ha ha!

My cards today use Altenew's Doodle Blooms and Halftone Happy stamp sets along with CAS(E) this Sketch #189, our current challenge which you can find here.  I hope you like them.


My first card stretches the sketch just a bit but keeps with the CAS idea by being all one layer.  I stamped and masked off my "happy" before adding in various Doodle Blooms.  Next, I used copics and a multi-liner to add extra fun to my blooms and leaves.  Lastly, I added some sequins and enamel dots before positioning the "birthday" portion of my sentiment along the tail of the "y".  My  next card is a little less CAS but no less fun.


I went a little daisy crazy on this card but I think you can totally see the sketch in it.  I stamped a ton of Doodle Blooms, colored them along with my "happy", and had my Brother Scan & Cut go crazy cutting them out.  Next, I layered them all haphazardly on my black and white card base using foam tape here and there for dimension.  Once I had a floral arrangement I liked, I added my sentiment which was finished off on a little green banner attached to the "y".


I hope you enjoyed my contributions to the Altenew Ultimate Challenge Blog Hop.  Here are some more details about the hop:
  • You can get all the nitty gritty details about the blog hop on the Altenew Blog.
