A Charming Valentine ~ Super QACAS! NBUS #102

Happy Week End!!

Weren't the Olympic opening ceremonies just amazing?! I hope all goes well for all the events.

I'm pretty sure today's card is the quickest and cleanest and simplest (QACAS) card I have made!

As I mentioned yesterday, Papertrey Ink is celebrating it's 7th birthday /anniversary with daily challenges,

and this is the current brief:

Welcome to our first ever Timer Challenge, in honor of the *time travel* theme for Stamp-a-faire this year. You are encouraged to grab a timer and get creative!

• You have 7 minutes to grab 7 supplies to use on your card.  This needs to include your ink, paper and stamps too, so maybe you should be sure to grab the basics first and go from there!  (You do not need to count adhesive as one of your limited supplies.)
• Then create a quick card in 17 minutes or less using the supplies you selected!

As it happened, I already had an idea in mind for a card using some more cool NBUS Washi tape for the current Fusion Card Challenge. At Fusion, we are given an inspiration board and allowed to choose to be inspired by the photo inspiration or the sketch inspiration or fuse the two.

*******

So I gathered these seven ingredients:

1. PTI vintage cream card stock
2. SU Valentine sediment stamp
3. Freckled Fawn heart Washi tape
4. SU real red ink cube
5. Unknown red heart brad
6. SU love charm
7. Unknown dog tag "Love You"

and I made this card, FUSING the two inspiration Fusion boards:

in this amount of time:

It prolly would have taken less time escept I dropped the heart brad on the floor and it took me a few seconds to find where it had bounced to under my rollie cart. Then when I scrambled after it I forgot I had a bad kanee until I kanelt on it. That caused me to whoosh out a big expellation of air and to topple over to my bottom where I sat for I-don't-know-how-long rubbing the offended joint and moaning.

Why do we make noises when we are in pain, especially when movement is involved like walking, sitting, or standing. Or even laying. Did I forget any? 

"Ooff," we go, "Aiiyee," or "Nnnnnn." That last one said through gritted teeth. 

Mister says it's because we want to draw attention to ourselves in case there are any persons within earshot who might offer sympathies and booze tea.

The hamster rapped me on the kanuckles to remind me to focus so I got to my feet toddler-fashion, impaled my charms, and walla, I was done!

QACAS! (I just realized that sounds like something Gunther would say!) It's a super CAS card. Sometimes you can shout out your love with a whisper.

I'm also linking my card with the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge where the theme is "Have a Heart!"

And I'm linking again at Addicted to CAS where the theme is "LOVE!" How can I not with two LOVE charms on my card?!

Remember the links will take you to the challenges for all the rules, sponsors, and prize details.

Enjoy your day!  No, seriously, enjoy.  LITS!* 

I hope to catch up with my visiting over the weekend. Our monitor went out on the PC a few days ago and the new one was finally installed. Whee! I am hopeless trying to type on the laptop, so I had all I could do just preparing my posts. But now I'm good to go!

As always, thank you for coming by to visit the Playhouse and special thanks to you if you take the time to leave a comment and/or join as a follower!  Please let me know you came by, so I can be sure and return the flavor!
