Cardmaking and Scrapbooking with Jean Manis
I’m playing along with the Freshly Made Sketches #210 Challenge with Reverse Confetti stamps and dies.
Here’s my take on the sketch:
I took some liberty with my CAS design by creating the items/shapes in three sizes and moving them out of line. I cut the snowflakes with the Let It Snow Confetti Cuts and adhered them to die cut circles. I heat-embossed a sentiment from the Tinsel ‘N Trim stamp set and cut it with the banner from the Tag Me Confetti Cuts set.
Today I’m sharing my last Halloween project for the year! I just love black cats and they seem particularly Halloweenish. On November 1, the fall and Halloween cards step aside for all things Thanksgiving and Christmas!
This is even more CAS than my usual cards! The sentiment is from Stampin’ Up.
Happy Halloween!
Supplies:
I’m featured over at the Reverse Confetti Blog today in the CONFETTI CAMERA, whose theme is “Set it Up”!
Here’s a sneak of my set of CAS holiday cards featuring the Layered Snowflake Confetti Cuts set in non-traditional colors:

Today, I’m sharing a CAS “thank you” card featuring Avery Elle die cuts and stamps.
I colored watercolor paper with a variety of Distress Inks, and once dry, I cut the paper with the Avery Elle Balloon dies. I stamped the sentiment and balloon strings (which I first stamped off so that the color would be more subtle) on the card base. I used dimensional adhesive to attach the balloons for depth.

I’m playing along with the CAS(E) this Sketch #144 Challenge.
I love repetition and the Taylored Expressions Little Bits Present die set seemed perfect for this sketch.
I cut the presents from both green and red cardstock and topped them with die cut silver foil ribbons. I stamped a sentiment from the Taylored Expressions Deck the Halls set and heat embossed it with Ranger Super Fine Silver Embossing Powder onto the card base. The presents were added with dimensional adhesive.
