Usually my style consists of cards with lots of layers. Recently I have seen lots of CAS (clean and simple) cards as people are taking part in the online CAS class. I saw Sue's post with her lovely bird CAS card which she is entering in the Less is More Week 50 - One layer bird challenge. I struggle with having lots of white space on the card, but thought I should have ago. I liked the idea of making something for the Less is More challenge, but the only bird stamp I could find was a very small one. The stamp is from Inkadinkado clear stamps Garden flower (97616). Hopefully it still counts. I stamped it many times until I came up with something I was reasonably happy with. Here are two cards to show you. The first one I will enter in the challenge.
Card No.1
Card No. 2
After looking at some of the other cards in the Less is More challenge, I saw a card featuring an owl. I suddenly realised that I have some owl stamps from The Craft's Meow so perhaps I will have to try and make another CAS creation.
The CAS online card class still goes for another week and it can be done at anytime, although I know that doing it now at the same time as others is probably better. Perhaps I should look at taking part and learn some new techniques for CAS cards. I would appreciate any comments or suggestions on my two cards.
Thanks for dropping by.

ReplyDeleteHello Angela
ReplyDeleteYou will notice I have had two attempts already to post a comment. I was just blown away that I had actually inspired you to make these two gorgeous cards. Thank you so much for you visit and your comments, your little bird is lovely.

Oh Angela I love your entry... Love the drama of the wee bird in black against the lighter colours of the green and blue. I too have struggled with a card for this challenge!!

Lovely Angela. You did well with your tiny bird... the flower going round it, looks superb.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely delicate stamp. Of these two versions I prefer the first one as the colour of the sentiment doesn't detract from taking the eye directly to that dear little brown bird.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much

ReplyDeleteBeautiful card, I prefer the sentiment in blue s the bird draws you eye into the design, whereas the dark sentiment detracts, I

Thanks for your comment. The sentiment with the blue is my preferred one too.
