Happy Little Stampers April 2017 CAS Challenge

Hi there

As we're at the beginning of another month that means it's launch time for the April challenges at Happy Little Stampers.  And today is the turn of the new CAS challenge and this time our cue word is...


Please pop over to the main challenge post for all the information and as always there's a prize up for grabs...



Here's my DT card using two stamp sets from Happy Little Stampers...


This was pretty simple.  I cut two squares using pierced square dies from white card, one which I had sponged with Distress Inks to create the blend.  After ensuring the ink was dry I used some anti-static powder over the blended background before stamping the Thanks and the butterflies in VersaMark before heat embossing in white.  The squares were then mounted on my card base and the second part of the sentiment stamped directly onto the card base in black.

Materials used:

  • Ink: Distress Ink: Wilted Violet (looks more blue here...camera problems again!), Mermaid Lagoon, Twisted Citron; VersaMark; Versafine - Onyx Black
  • Stamps: Happy Little Stampers - Simply Said and Thinking of You
  • Dies: MFT Die-namics - Pierced Squares
  • Embossing Powder: Wow! - Opaque Bright White


I'm sure there are plenty of ways 'blend' can be conveyed on your projects so I'm looking forward to the gallery this month.  And don't forget, you have the whole of April to play along with your CAS creations, as well as the rest of the HLS challenges which will be kicking off over the next few days.
