Have you been following all of the excitement at CAS-ual Fridays? Tonight's the night when the new team of Girl Fridays is being introduced, and I'm thrilled to say that I will be staying on for another term! You can see the rest of the DT announcement on the CAS-ual Fridays Challenge blog. Let me just say--I feel incredibly humbled to part of such a talented group!
As if that weren't exciting enough, tonight is also Release Night for the latest batch of CAS-ual Fridays Stamps! To celebrate, CAS-ual Fridays Stamps is sponsoring this week's challenge, which is to use black and white plus one other color on your clean and simple design.
I used an image and sentiment from one of the newest sets, Only You. I love the clever mix and match sentiments in this set, centered on the word "you".
I chose Lucky Limeade as my accent color, stamping the flourish with it and coloring some rhinestones with my Copics to match.
The black cardstock panels are debossed with a diamond pattern for subtle texture, but the sentiment panel is really the star of the show in this design.
Cardstock: WPlus9 Design Studio (Black, White)
Stamps: CAS-ual Fridays Stamps (Only You)
Ink: Stampin' Up! (Lucky Limeade), Memento (Tuxedo Black), Copic markers
Tool: Papertrey Ink (diamond impression plate)
Accessories: rhinestones
I hope you'll join in the fun this week! I always love seeing the splashes of color in the gallery.
I promised you photos of my daughter's Valentines, and I hope to be back with those over the weekend. There just aren't enough hours in the day since I took on teaching a class this semester, and I've missed spending time with all of you here in blog land.
Have a great Friday!
