Ghost CAS card

Hello,



This weeks theme at casology challenges is "Ghost".

For my card I used a the september free digital stamp from the digi stamp boutique.
I added some shadow to the digi using photoshop.
The sentiment was part of the free stamp. I altered it in Photoshop so it became one sentence.
The chevron glitter paper is from a previous Simon Says stamp card kit.

Christmas Tag

Hello,

(Source: wiki)
  
After spending a fabulous long weekend with my love in the beautiful  Belgium City of Antwerp, it's almost back to normal again.
I have one more day off from work and I had some time to make a Christmas tag inspired by challenge #9 at tag you're it challenge.




The paper is from Dovecraft "Krafty Christmas" 
The wooden elk and wooden Merry Christmas label are from local stores.
I put a little bell on the label.
I love this color combination white, blue and sand.

Breast Cancer Awareness

Hi,

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, which is an annual campaign to increase awareness of the disease. 
I made my next card to bring awareness to breast cancer. 
The Pink Ribbon Digi is from Saturated canary.  It was a freebie a few years back.


I colored the digi in Photoshop. It took me about 1,5 hours to complete.
One stripe of hair I colored funky pink.
The Think pink straw flag  is part of a 44 pages free printable awareness set from chickabug.  An amazing free printable. You must check it out!

For those who battle this disease, I wish you Love, Strength, Hope and Cure.

Hugs Henriëtte






Shore do love you

Hello and welcome,

 

I created this tropical scene in Photoshop using 2 digital stamp.
The palmtree is a digi from 2 Cute Ink. I removed the camel and colored the palmtree twice in Photoshop.
The flamingo is a digital stamp from pink petticoat. I also colored that digi in Photoshop and made two different versions (one has a darker color and no eyelashes).
I put the 4 digis together and made a gradient background, all in Photoshop.
Once I knew how to do all this it was great to make the image just as I had it in my mind.

I used the image on a tag card for the Tag you're it! challenge.
This is the inspiration card:
 

I only used the layout as my inspiration, not the autumn theme.
My card is quite the contrary with a tropical theme.


The sentiment I made in Word and I put a pearl shell bead on it.

Fall Wedding Card

Hi,

One of my favourite challenges is sunday-clean-and-simple at Outlawz.
I try to join them every week with a new CAS creation. This week the theme is Fall Wedding.
My inspiration came from looking at pictures from fall wedding bouquets.
And here is what I came up with.



Made the flowers myself (it's very easy, there are many tutorials on internet).
The leaves are die cuts. The sentiment "To have and to hold" is a freebie from Bethany elegant word art. I printed it on the cardstock.
Used some glitterpaper to give the card a nicer look.
