For my card for this week I have attempted CAS again LOL! Well CAS for me anyway. Please be gentle with my CAS cards lol - they are waaaaaay out of my comfort zone and I don't really know why I am CAS (for me) inspired this weekend but all should be back to normal next week :) hehe!
I have teamed up this AFA challenge with the challenge over at The Greeting Farm which is to create a mini card - no bigger than 4". Now let me tell you this was HARD! But it did force me to be tone it right down. I have used the gorgeous Dressy Joyce from The Greeting Farm.
I am practicing my photography skills...getting there but I am still not capturing as much detail as I would like...
I have cut out some little hexagons and propped these up using dimensional foam dots. The little hearts have clear diamond glaze on them to make them shiny, and I have sewn little leaders using black thread. I printed the sentiment on the computer and added some black rhinestones for good measure.
I coloured Joyce using copic markers. Here are the colours that I used:
Skin: E50, E53, E11, E00, R11
Hair: Y00, Y21, E21, YR21
Dress: C3, C5, C7
Shoes.Heart: R22, R29
Challenges that I am entering this card in:
The Greeting Farm - Good Things Come in Small Sizes (my card is a 4x4")
Authentique - Sketch Challenge
CropStop - CAS
Hope to see you all playing along with the challenge this week! :) Happy Easter!

Happy Easter Alyce!! She is gorgeous!! I was just thinking about using her the other day! Love the popped up tiles, and the black sewing to create the hanging hearts is genius! Awesome CAS card! I too have not yet perfected taking pics. (long way from it) You can never quite pick up all the pretty glitter or stones just the way you want. (grrr)
Way too cute, Love the hair!!
