CAS-ual Friday CFC92

I love to stamp my own backgrounds so this CAS-ual Fridays challenge was right up my alley.  But hmm, what stamp to use...

Sometimes I find a stamp I like but I only use it in one style of card.  I only see it as Shabby Chic, Elegant, or Country.  I have been trying to force my self to make the products I own more versatile.

That being said,  I decided to use the Stampendous peacock feather I used to make Mother's Day cards for another challenge.  Those cards were elegant and sparkly.  This card is rustic in design.

My favorite part is the cork Hello.  It was cut using a PTI die from their new self adhesive cork sheets.  I love this stuff!  I cuts like butter and adds so much texture.

CAS-ual Friday Let's Strip

Well, our company has left us :(  We had a wonderful visit and wish it didn't have to come to an end.  I did manage to squeeze in a bit of stamping.  I made some cards to send back with my MIL.  One of them fits perfect for this weeks CAS-ual Friday challenge.

It's no secret that I am a scrap hoarder so this project was right up my alley.  I dug through my basket and found the colors of the rainbow popping out at me.  The clouds seemed perfect for the sentiment.

For the inside I created a cloud with a silver lining.  I used the smaller die to cut out a piece of silver embossing sheet.  Then I used the same die to cut out center of the large cloud.  I was pretty happy with the way it turned out.
