CFC #106; NBUS #12; PIXIE'S #78 ~ Over The Edge

Oh, hello there!

It's been a busy week.  I've missed a couple of favorite challenges and I've not visited as much as I had hoped, but earlier tonight I made a card for a different couple of challenges and it was all good.

 

I started writing my post, but I got distracted (was that Spike just ran by?).  I came back to the computer and read a few emails and then I got caught up in the Cobweb and started surfing and before long I ended up at this week's CAS-ual Fridays challenge, which is "Over The Edge."

Well, that would certainly be a fun challenge to sink one's teeth into, I thought, la de dah, what?  It ends when?  I scurried out to the Playhouse and sat for a few minutes in the middle of the room connoitering.  Usually people reconnoiter, which I never understood because as far as I could tell they skipped clean over the connoiter part.  I mean, things don't reoccur until after they've occurred.  Don't get me restarted.

 

I began flipping through my dies looking for something NBUS (never-before-used-schtuff) and, considering most of them are NBUS, it didn't take me long to find just the thing for this challenge.  I also used a NBUS sediment.

I cut the Memory Box die twice, once with red paper and once with kraft paper.  I filled the negative kraft cut with the hearts from the red cut by placing them on a piece of regular tape.  The hearts were then attached to the card base and I cut along the border in a couple of areas that were deeply intended.

I heart this simple CAS card.  Oh, I guess that's redundant, or rather, dundant.  You see what I go through up in here?!

I just realized that I've also used a snippet (red paper), so I finally get to run over to the playground and join my pal's at Pixie's Crafty Snippets Playground!  It's open all year 'round; all you have to do to join is use up some of your scraps (snippets)!

I'm thrilled to introduce you to our newest friend, Jacquie Southas of What Did I Do Today?!   I just love that blog name!  Jacquie's card art is really terrific and I promise you'll find inspiration when you visit her site to say hello!  Thank you, Jacquie, and welcome!

I'll be back tomorrow with what I was working on before I went over the edge.  Enjoy the rest of your evening or your new day if you are just waking up!  No, seriously, enjoy.  LITS*! 

 

And thank you so much for stopping by the Playhouse.  Special thanks to you if you take the time to leave a comment or join as a follower!
