CAS for Easter

While doing the comments on the entries for the Double D Challenge today, I came across two challenges new to me. The first in the Inkspirational Challenge. On that Challenge they linked to another called AAA card challenge. I had some time today so I made a quick card to enter both. Lucky me!   Check them out you maybe inspired like me. 


Optional Twist: E is for...Easter, evening, engagement, envelope, eggs...



This challenge the letter E must be incorporated. 

Here is the card that I made, CAS is not usually me style, but I can accomplish it.

Seize the birthday challenge # 323- Add A tag



Our "Topping" option this time is...

Jules is the host for this challenge. You just need to add a tag if your are into the topping. 
If you are not interested in the topping, just make it a birthday theme. 


Here is a few cards for this challenge

I needed a masculine card for our grandson who is turning 17. I started out with some silver foiled paper which I embossed with a birthday themed embossing folder. I wanted to make a Shaker card so I Cut the tag dye from memory box entitled Stitched Main Street Tag twice. The sentiment is creative and expressions shadow box die. This card was easier to make than it was to photograph as that background is so shiny my image kept showing up in the picture. I really can't have that so I found a way to photograph it from a distance and then enhance my photo.

My next card is also A tag card Yes I know I went overboard again but they're so much fun.



This card started out with a spellbinders embossing folder called Tufted. It is a 3D folder and I've used it many times. Then once again I use the stitched main street tag dye from memory box and placed some design paper inside. On top of the tag I place the Greetery die called  graceful stems that I die cut and quickly colored with my Copics. This sentiment is a strip From my stash.

Please stop over at the blog and take a look at what the team has done for this challenge.
