Going CAS at Just Us Girls

It's our Last Challenge of the year at

 Just Us Girls and Bobby is Hosting our

CAS Challenge and chose the prompt - 

In a Circle.

I must admit this card was made long ago

when my girlfriend was visiting.

When I saw this challenge come up on our DT blog

I knew I wanted to keep it for this one.

It is using a technique I have wanted to play with

for a long time  and we finally did together.

You will all remember Eileen Godwin with her

masking of colours that we all loved.

I used Tim's Destress inks and the vellum

die cut flower was one my girlfriend bought

that we both used. 

Certainly CAS - finishing with a pearl

in the centre of the flower.

Our Guest Melissa and the Team have created such 

super fun wonderful inspiring cards and we would 

love to see yours in the Gallery for the last time this year.

A big Thank You to Melissa for sharing her talents

with us as our November Guest. 

Thanks for all the lovely comments this year.

I really appreciate them.

Merry Christmas 

See you in January to do it all again.

Two turn 1

It's CAS Week at Just Us Girls

and Host Sue has chosen

BABY as the theme.

My cards aren't quite 'Baby' ones

more the nearing toddlers style.

It is now just over 12 months since I became a

Great Grandmother to Jaxson.

As his Dad owns a small aircraft

this is where my theme evolved.

It isn't quite CAS but I tried.

The clouds are hand cut, adding

texture paste to make them fluffy and inked for a touch of colour.

Die cut sun and circle for dimention

adding extra colour with Lindy's Magical's

Circle embossing folder is an old CB.

Plane is Sizzix Baby set inked and cut in

brown dp to resemble the Spitfire.

Sentiment - STAMPlorations and the

1 is penciled and hand cut from a TH number.

(Number dies ordered but not sure if they will

get here on time) 

Adhered to white card base.

In November along came the sweetest little girl bundle

Harper - you may recall my baby card I made for her.

I had fun with this one after seeing a card on Pinterest

but now can't find the creater.

I cut the DieVersions Pretty Wings

from DP and added Cool Diamonds glitter

(a little girl needs sparkle!)

Die cut a bunch of SP circles for the body.

Embossed background is the same as above.

Die cut a circle to add the sparkly 1

Finished by adding a frame from the dp

and adhering to pink card base.

Our Talented Team and Guest Greta

have been busy with all sorts of

'baby' themed cards so pop over and see

for yourself then hope you have a baby card

in mind to make and add to our Gallery.

Thanks for visiting and hanging in there

with this longer than normal post.

It's CASimply Happy Birthday.

Welcome to today's post.

 We made a couple of changes to our themes this year at

Just Us Girls  and this is one

 I am sure will be very popular. 

It's CAS - Clean and Simple.

Check our guidelines below.

The Host has the choice of what she is looking for

 and our Host Carol has chosen BIRTHDAY!

As the theme states - CAS.

Background is a simple die cut from Kaisercraft.

Die cut several florals in purple tones

Attached a piece of ribbon from my stash

and Happy Birthday Sentiment is from SU.

Pop over and see how our Guest Jules

and the Team went CAS.

Hope you like our New Challenge and

join in with your CAS card in the Gallery.

As it is the last challenge of the month

we bid farewell to our Talented Guest Jules.

Loved having you share your creations with us this month.

Thank you so much.

My CAS card fits in with Challenge #648 All Occasions
