CAS Challenge at Jackson's Digital Expressions

Hi, Everyone!  I have a card for the new CAS Challenge at JDE using patterned paper.  I've used Robert's image Finishing Touch.  I did my best to create a bit of shadow on the snowman - how do you think I did?

The cardstock and the two DPs are from my stash. I inked the edges of the DP and my image in Memento Danube Blue ink.  I used watercolor pencils for the image. The sentiment is from Close to My Heart - Holiday Trinkets (retired, I think).  I stamped the sentiment in my new ink purchase - Pearlescent Sky Blue by Tsukineko.  (Last weekend I used a 50% coupon from Michaels.)

As always, go to the site to see what the rest of the DT has created and to see who won last week's challenge. Our sponsor is Bugaboo.

I'm entering my card in the following challenges:  Cards by Lady Anne (Anything Goes), Crafty Bloggers Network (Christmas Anything Goes), The Paper Girls (Christmas or Winter) and Addicted to CAS (code word SNOW).

By the way, I hope everyone has a nice and Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Color Challenge at Jackson's Digital Expressions

We have a new sponsor at JDE this week - A Day for Daisies.  Some of our DT are using images from ADFD in the challenge.  The color twist at our Anything Goes challenge at JDE this week is to use Purple, Red and Blue. I thought I would have a hard time with this color combo, but I really didn't.  I used Robert's "With All Her Might" image. I think the woman could be singing or she could be preaching. But whatever she's doing, from her body language, you can tell she's doing it With All Her Might:

Supplies:  Cardstock, Ribbon & Bling: My stash; Sentiment: CTMH Card Chatter Sympathy; Bic Mark-Its, Watercolor Pencils, Blending Pen; Fiskars Corner Punch; Corner Chomper.

Go on over and see all the projects the DT has created.  You're in for a treat! And don't forget our month long Anything Goes Challenge #11.  It ends August 6 so you have lots of time left to win some great prizes. At the end of our month long Party, we will have a special drawing from all eligible entries.  The winner will win a Sizzix Big Shot and the entire July Image Release.  But remember, you have to be a follower to be eligible!

On a side note, I just want to say that it feels good at use my stash! I've entered my card in these challenges:  Make it Monday (Anything Goes),  Crafty Creations Challenges (Free for All),  Word Art Wednesday.
