Feel Better - CAS on Friday Challenge #222

Hello and welcome to our first CAS on Friday challenge for 2022! 

Our theme for challenge #222 is FEEL BETTER. 

It's always lovely for someone who's feeling low to receive a handmade card you've put thought into, so these are great to have a stash of on hand all year round.

For mine I coloured and fussy cut this beautiful rose, layering it over a partial stencilled background.

Materials used:

• stamps - Merci Beaucoup (Clearly Besotted), Itty Bitty Greetings (SU) 
• card - basic white, crumb cake
• Copic markers - V0000,V000,V01,G40,G43
• other - stitched rectangle die, Big Shot Switch, craft foam, Dimensionals, blending brush, Bubble mini stencil (Tim Holtz), antique linen distress oxide ink, MISTI

We'd love you to join in the fun and share your creation with us. Take a look at what my team mates came up with on the CAS on Friday blog for more inspiration.

Thanks for dropping by.

Cheers

Poor Ted - CAS on Friday Challenge #196

Welcome to the very first CAS on Friday challenge for 2021! I hope you all have a wealth of wonderful crafting goodness ahead of you in this new year.

To start us off our theme for Challenge #196 is FEEL BETTER. 

Two old favourites were used on my card: this adorable stamp from Lili of the Valley and one of my all-time fav techniques, watercolouring. I got out some long-retired ink colours from SU and spent a very pleasant few minutes giving life to the image.

Materials used:

• stamps - Itty Bitty Greetings (SU), Get Well Soon (LOTV)
• card - pistachio pudding, watercolour
• ink colours - strawberry slush, baked brown sugar, Baja breeze, pistachio pudding, petal pink, so saffron, smoky slate
• other - aquapainter, craft foam, Dimensionals, pennant punch, stitched rectangle die, Big Shot, pool party and Sahara sand markers

Poor Ted!

When I was a child my mum had a linctus for coughs that had to be diluted in warm water and it was horrible! Very hard to keep down, lol. My younger daughter couldn't physically keep liquid medicines down - and of course most children's medicines come in liquid form. Doctors always gave us the side eye when we asked for it in tablets. Happy days.

I do hope you'll join our challenge and make your own Feel Better card - perfect to have on hand for those summer colds and winter ills alike. And don't forget to pop over to the CASOF blog to see what lovely creations my fellow DT members have come up with for your inspiration - and comment love is always welcome and appreciated!

Thanks for calling in.

Cheers
