Addicted to CAS Challenge #172 - Birthday


Happy 7th Birthday, ATCAS!!!

Hi there, blog friends! Today starts a new challenge at Addicted to CAS  ~ Vicki is our Hostess, and since it is our 7th Birthday as a challenge blog, she is asking everyone to create a card using the Code Word ‘Birthday’.

Our Guest Designer is the super talented Charlotte (Lady Joyful). Charlotte was the winner of our 'Plaid' challenge, and she has created a fabulous card to inspire you.

I created a birthday card for my wonderful friend, Michele, and since she has already received it (and celebrated), I can post it here...



Michele frequently injects humor in her cardmaking, so I thought this card would be right up her alley :) I had a lot of fun creating it, too...I used Copic markers to color the image, and Grout Gray ink to stencil the brick wall and the oval shadow. I also added some Pico Embellisher for a glossy finish on the sunglasses.

We all need a few extra birthday cards for our stash, and we would love to see how the code word inspires you! If you would like to see inspiration from the Design Team and play along with us, come on over and check out the ATCAS Blog ~

Thanks so much for stopping by,







Supplies:
Stamps: Art Impressions - Fire Out; MFT - Brushstroke Expressions (HB sentiment inside)
Dies: MFT - Elegant Rectangle STAX; Hero Arts - Speech Bubble
Stencils: MFT - English Brick Wall
Misc: Pico Embellisher (Gloss on sunglasses)
