Today, Im playing along with CAS(E) this sketch! for the first time. Here is the inspiration for the week;


And, here is the card I came up with...


What I set out to achieve with this card;

1. Use the 'Whats Your Type' Stamp Set
2. Clean and Simple card
3. Use ONE colour for the card and image base

What do you think - do you think I achieved this?

Stamp Set

The first time I saw this stamp set was on the Cruise of the Caribbean. In the 'Stampin' Up!' room on the 'Allure of the Seas', I saw Brian King demonstrating it. And, it then appeared in the catalogue.


I just haven't found the right card to use it on - so this one was a perfect opportunity. There are MANY, many other ways to use this set aside from just using it for letters - check out Pinterest. Do you have the set? If you don't, click on the image at the bottom of this post and buy it now.

Clean and Simple

Ive been trying to simplify the cards Im making. Aside from the few goes that it took to get the stamped image right (I know what to do now), the rest of the card was really simple.

I ran the sheet of whisper white through the embossing folder. I then ran three small offcuts of Cucumber Crush, Bermuda Bay and Watermelon Wonder through the folder. I then cut around the image and mounted it on dimensionals. Using the colour pieces of card stock, I simply cut the small triangles and assembled them to match the sketch.


Finally, to highlight the diagonal, I used Silver Cording trim. This fit nicely in the 'valley' created using the embossing folder.
