best of everything...

Hello friends!!   Here with a little card that was super quick to make and uses the current CTS sketch and the color combo from CAS Colours and Sketches.


After seeing a ton of fabulous cards made with the SU! set Mosaic Madness I finally broke down and bought the set along with the matching punch and embossing folder.  When I saw the new CTS sketch I knew it would be the perfect set to use.  Then I checked out what the new CAS Colours and Sketches challenge was and yay... it was colors this week (pale blue, grey and dark red) so I combined the two challenges.    I decided to use only one image from Mosaic Madness to keep my look very tailored and cohesive.   I stamped each color, punched them out and then popped them up on the white cardstock using foam dimensionals.  The sentiment (from the SU! set Best of Everything) was stamped using black ink.    Not a super clever card, but then I'm not a super clever paper crafter... just a simple stamper! 

Thanks for stopping by...

Supplies:  Cardstock:  PTI white; Stamps:  SU! Mosaic Madness & Best of Everything; Inks:  SU! Cherry Cobbler & Soft Sky; Memento London Fog & Tuxedo Black; Punch:  SU!
