AAA Cards Weekend Workout

AAA Cards Weekend workout

Hello, I didn't mean working out at the gym, but a creative workout as I managed to do two CAS cards. For the first card, I used the Altenew leaf burst stencil for my rainbow background. I coloured these with a range of distress ink. Once dried, I heat embossed an outline flower from Altenew Peony bouquet with Hero Arts copper embossing powder, then adhered this to a card. Thought to leave it uncoloured as the background is quite colourful already. A happy birthday sentiment from Simon Says Stamp  (Beautiful flowers)  finished off my card.

I'm entering this card also in the daily marker 30 day challenge and SSS IG challenge. Thanks for stopping by. 

Love and hugs,

Clarissa

A Gnome Summer

A Gnome Summer
Hello peeps. My entry to #lawnfawnatics challenge #55, all about summer. I was inspired by  (kristina’s) distress oxide blends so I had a go, and the waves kind off flowed (lots of masking, though). 

I love gnomes so I thought of a summer gnome theme and all the things they could do at the beach. Used several @lawnfawn stamps. As I wanted to use a lot of the stamps, @insideoutjeans(Jeannie)’s floating floor came to mind. I had fun dressing up the gnomes in their togs and bathing suits and shades, aren’t these stinking cute? 

Hope you like it. This is also Day 14 of @kathyrac the daily marker 30 day challenge.
