Sending You Sunshine {MIM #62}



This week's Make It Monday is focuses on adding layers to CAS cards to create different looks.  I've used the same basic supplies on both cards, but created one CAS and one layered card.




Have a Great Day!

Stamps: Wplus9 Pocketful, PTI Simple Sunflower
Ink: PTI Harvest Gold, Summer Sunrise, New Leaf, Dark Chocolate, Chai
Dies: Wplus9 Pocket Die, PTI Sunflowers and Linen/Canvas Impression Plate

Gosh Kara, you always come up with the best card ideas. I love how you used the pocket stamp with the great sunflower images. I like both cards, but the second one is my favorite. Love the flowers all popped up.

Hats off to you Madame Kara! These rock! So so sweet. I don't have this pocket set and didn't think I wanted it before now. Dang it! I so need it now. Outstanding cards. So inspiring!

The sunflowers are so pretty used with the pocket image! Both versions are wonderful but I especially love the popped up flowers and the sentiment on the second one. What a charming accent to add the popped up single leaf!
