I really do hope i’ve made my cards CAS enough for this weeks challenge over at the Less Is More site. This card was made by stamping a flourish image and adding flock to give a rich looking and tactile card.
Can’t remember where this set of large flourishes came from, have had them a long time and don’t use them often as they are a tad difficult to stamp with. The sentiment is from stash as is the bling.

A couple of weeks ago i went to a large craft fair and managed to get my hands on some of the Gorjuss stamps which i have wanted since they came out. Got three images, Waiting, Mushroom and Winter Friend. Have used the image called ‘Waiting’ on this card, coloured her in slightly seasonal colours and have also made a couple of mistakes along the way. This was the first impression and the first time i had coloured any of the images. Used Promarkers and found myself not liking the intense colours to start with. Put her down and pondered for a few days and decided to use her on an xmas card.
Apologies if my English is not as good as it should be, it is now 1.10am and i am VERY tired and really need to rest, only another 3 cards to post and then my marathon job is done. Next job is to then add the links to the LIM page and then i can sleep…
Love the Avec border punches, have used the flowers on the base card. The sentiment is from American Crafts, the card stock and the bling is from stash.

I apologise if you are getting bored looking at my entries for this weeks LIM Challenge, please don’t feel like you have to comment on every one even though your efforts will be very much appreciated. I will go and comment on as many as possible but if i don’t manage to get to yours i apologise as there are lots to get around this week. I am hoping you are all enjoying taking part and have managed to recreate some of your favourite designs and techniques.
So, card number 6 has been made with a delicate and intricate lace butterfly cut out using my Pazzle Inspiration electronic die cutting machine teamed with a wonderful sentiment from his highness Mr Tim Holtz.
Had to take a macro shot as it shows the wonderful design of this Pazzle cutting file. This is one of the most CAS cards from this weeks entries. Bling is from stash. Love using turquoise and copper colours together, they look so warm and opulent.

Over at the LIM Challenge site we have been asked to upload as many entries as we can this week, i am now up to number 5. Here is another Stampotique character called Karin.
Maybe i should have just put Karin and the sentiment on the card, but, i couldn’t resist giving her an xmas halo. Love the fun these characters bring out in my crafting, they appeal to my naughty and slightly rebellious side lol. Some Friends are going to do a bit of a double take when they open their cards this year.
Cosmic Shimmer mica spray was misted onto cream lightweight card and then Karin was stamped over the top using a Versafine Ink pad. The sentiment is from an old Cee Dee set where you can add words to a basic greeting to create your own bespoke words. Karin has a wonderful personality reflected in her blingy heart, colour choices and her wonderful snowflake halo.

Card number four for the LIM Challenge is another xmas card. Tried to create a square out of inchies except somewhere along the line my cutting and measuring didn’t quite match so we have slightly off centre inchies. It’s all down to shakes and tremors and no matter how much i try to centre a perfectly aligned card it doesn’t always happen…
Used the Snowflake Cuttlebug Embossing Folder which is one of my all time favourite folders, would love a stamp of this design as it is so versatile and would make me a happy bunny… Did two of the squares embossed and two of the squares debossed to add a little interest to the texture. Sentiment is from stash as is the bling.
Thanks fro dropping by:-)
