It's time for a new CAS-ual Fridays challenge! This week we have a fun color combo for you to try:
Our sponsor this week is Stop and Scrap, where you can find great deals on patterned paper and more. Thank you, Stop and Scrap!
I didn't have much time for stamping this week, but I thought these colors would be great for a grungy but upbeat card for my brother. I used stamps from The Craft's Meow's Typically Teen, layering them along the side of the card.
Originally I tried stamping the sentiment directly on the white panel, but I smudged it. :( To try to salvage it, I stamped a strip of cardstock with chevrons, added the sentiment, then layered it over the boo-boo.
Cardstock: Stampin' Up! (Pacific Point), WPlus9 Design Studio (White)
Stamps: The Craft's Meow (Typically Teen), Lawn Fawn (Chevron Backdrops), Paper Smooches (Sentiment Sampler)
Ink: Stampin' Up! (Pacific Point, Gumball Green), Papertrey Ink (Hawaiian Shores), Memento (Tuxedo Black)
I hope you have a fantastic weekend, friends! Thanks for stopping by today.

I like the strip! I would have never known you smudged it! I love the way the stamps on the side look, I originally thought it was washi tape, it looks that perfect :)
What a wonderful save! I love this set and you've rocked it!
Now that is a cool card!
That's a favorite stamp set of mine! Wonderful colors and I love the way you stamped in strips off the card. Great save with the sentiment.
Gotta love creative solutions for oops, sometimes they turn out for the better right? Great use of Karen's fun stamps...
I love this !!
Hi Christina, I have been spending some time on your blog this morning just adoring all of your cards. I am trying to learn to make CAS cards and found so much inspiration here! I am now a follower and hope to learn a lot by watching you create.
All of your cards are gorgeous! This one for your brother is fantastic! I love the stamp set you used and have added it to my favorites list. I hope to play along this week, but will have to see what I can come up with.

This is super cool, Christina! Your brother is going to love it :) I love the chevron strip, so maybe the initial smudging was for good ;)
