Wallflower

 

Day two of the CAS-ual Fridays release! The Wallflower set is full of great sentiments, as you'll see. I love the vertical orientation of this sentiment, which lends itself to fit long, skinny design spaces.

Vintage ribbon, a strip of patterned paper, and Amy Tangerine Yes, Please paper on the inside.


 

I went for a more vintage look on this card, with the dirty gold glitter paper, and the copper ink.


 The nice thing about this set is that the border stamp goes perfectly with the $5 four petal dies. Love that extra ridge you get since it's an open die! 
  

This card was made with the left-overs from the prior two cards. A strip of washi grounds the bottom of the panel.

Stay tuned for the last set to be revealed tomorrow! More inspiration waits for you at rest of the CAS-ual Fridays Stamps Design Team:

Thanks for looking!

  3. These are wonderful! I love how you use PP for your cards. I like seeing the inside pattern peeking out. I'm scared to do it, but I have a glut of papers. I need to just go for it!

    1. Thanks Nancy! I forgot to mention that I used my boys' comb to make the bow, and to get all the loops the same size. I saw a video on-line that used a fork to make a tiny bow. Winding your ribbon through a comb lets you make a much bigger bow.

      Hope you're having a good week!

  10. Oh, these are so pretty, Kelly! I love them!
    And, to answer your question about my drink dispenser, it came with two tiers and I got it at the Royal Canadian Superstore, here in Canada. It was $24, which felt like a bit of a splurge, but I've used it several times already this year. And for kid parities, it's nice -- the kids love serving themselves with it!
    Take care!
