Well, once again, it's been a few days since I've been stamping - I'm trying to keep a little balance in my life - so that's where I've been. But, of course, the various challenges out in blog land keep calling me back!
Today I have answered two challenge calls:
First up is a card I made for the PTI Make It Monday - Dawn McVey showed us how to blow drops of ink from reinkers across the card to make some funky designs! This is also for the CAS-ology Cue Card - Care. My sympathy sentiment is from Everyday Classics (a special set I got from PTI for ordering way too many stamp sets one year!) and I used SU colors of Soft Sky and Barely Banana reinkers. I have to say - I 'blew' about 4 trials before getting a design I liked!
My next card was created using the Less is More Sketch. I used this wonderful embossed edge Tag Die from PTI that I just purchased - along with these wonderful summertime stamps from Waltzingmouse. The sentiment is cut with Spellbinders Ribbon Banners.
I hope you'll stop by tomorrow - I'll have a Something Old - Something New post for Creations by AR - using an older template in a new way - I think you'll like it!!

Very cool technique, I've got to try that! Thanks for playing along at CASology this week
Well I'll be! I've blown paint before but never thought of reinkers on a card. I think it's lovely in it's simplicity.
Both great, but your blown ink looks heavenly. So soft and pretty.
Love the fabulous pattern you created with the reinkers, Julia. I might have to check out that tutorial. And the second card is so cheery it just makes me smile. :) Thanks for playing along with CASology this week!
