Hey there, lovely people! Thanks so much for stopping by today. It's been an especially busy week at work, so I'm very happy to be *almost* to the weekend. Luckily, that also means it's time for a new CAS-ual Fridays challenge!
This week we're asking you to "toot your own horn": create a clean and simple project based on your own blog header. How fun is that?!
We're sponsored this week by A Muse Studio, and you'll have to stop by the CAS-ual Fridays blog to check out the awesome prize up for grabs.
I think it's pretty obvious how I was inspired this week. *grin* I can't take credit for the design, of course, since I just copied the lovely colors and arrangement of elements that Karen Baker came up with for my new blog header. Have I mentioned how much I love it?
The colors I used are SU's Island Indigo, Pool Party, and Peach Parfait. Stamps are from WPlus9's Guiding Light and PTI's Faux Ribbon and Think Big Favorites #4.
Cardstock: WPlus9 Design Studio (White)
Stamps: WPlus9 Design Studio (Guiding Light), Papertrey Ink (Faux Ribbon, Think Big Favorites #4)
Ink: Stampin' Up! (Island Indigo, Pool Party, Peach Parfait)
Tools: WPlus9 Design Studio (starfish die), Papertrey Ink (Linen & Canvas impression plate), corner rounder
I always look forward to seeing the creations in the challenge gallery, but I think this week will be especially interesting. How does your blog header inspire you?
Thanks again for your sweet comments, my friends. I always appreciate your visits!
Have a great start to your weekend!
