I have been in card making mode so I wanted to share several more CAS style cards. First up is a card that was inspired by Julie's "Morning Sunshine" card several weeks ago. I had received my eP package with Christy Tomlinson's She Art Flower Stencil by Pink Paislee and decided to use it on my card:

I used my Inkssentials Foam Blending Tool, dabbing Ripe Persimmon Distress Ink straight onto the card base. I added the sentiment from Wplus9's Strictly Sentiments 1 stamp set which was stamped onto scrap white card stock and then cut apart. Added some rhinestones in the corner and called it good.

I have to confess that this is the first time I ever attempted to create a stamped background like this. But using the Fiskars Stamp Press made it really easy and fast. I am loving both the Quilt Prints and the Strictly Sentiments 1 sets. Endless possibilities!
And one more...... this one I used Donna Downey's Wayward Blooms from Unity. However, instead of using ink, I used paint and I absolutely love that effect:

I really had fun creating these cards. It was fun to use items that are geared more towards mixed media, such as the stencil, on a card.With all this card making, I did neglect my Dylusions Journal this past week. But I thought I'd share one I had created a while ago:
Talking about stencils, paints and stamps, have you seen all the NEW ITEMS at the ecclectic Paperie shop? I literaly jumped up and down with delight.....definitely check it out!
