CASology #130: FRIEND

Hello, friends!  We are back with our next CASology cue card (and it seems to be a popular theme this week in blogland)!


This week we are sponsored by DeNami Designs, so be sure to check out the CASology blog for details!

I recently purchased a few goodies online from JoAnne's during a really good sale, and my goodies came just in time for this cue.  I bought a new Darice embossing folder (I have a thing for them, if you haven't guessed already) and I couldn't wait to use it to frame these cute chickadees by Technique Tuesday.  I like the way this simple friendship card turned out!


I added some subtle glitter accents around the embossed frame with a glitter pen...I love that effect.  Interest, no bulk.

I'm also going to link this card up to the current Less Is More Week 207 Theme: Friends challenge.  (Isn't it amazing that we both randomly picked the same theme this week?  Great minds think alike!)

I can't wait to see your FRIEND cards!  Be sure to link up your card by noon on Monday (Central time). You will also be inspired by the many ways our Design Team and Guest Designer interpreted the cue this week...be sure to check out their blogs, too!

  12. Oh, was it an embossing folder? It really looks like a doily paper to me! What a great dimension!!! By the way, how did you color the birds, Judy? Watercolor? Copics? Love the way you colored them.

    1. Hi, May! I used Copics to color the birds, the only three yellow Copics I own! Y06, Y11 and Y15.

  13. Hi Judy, I really love this! I am using the old Revolution, so it's really unfortunate that I can't do the bigger embossing like what you did! Saving up for either Big Shot or Evolution Advanced ;)
