STAMPlorations October CAS Challenge

Hi all, and welcome to a new season of the STAMPlorations CAS Challenge! I'm so excited to get going with the challenge again and to see your beautiful creations. If you have played along before you know how this works - the challenge is to create a CAS card and if you want to you can use the optional colour twist. For more details, see the challenge post over on the STAMPlorations blog. And of course, there will be prizes as well, the winner is picked each month by a Design Team member and will receive a $20 prize code to the STAMPlorations store. Three randomly drawn crafters will receive a $7 prize code to the STAMPlorations store. To be eligible for the prizes, players have to adhere to the challenge rules. 

As you can see, the first colour twist this season is grey and orange. I thought this was a perfect colour combo for the beautiful In Bloom: Classic Calla Lilies stamp, so I stamped it in the lower left-hand corner of my card and coloured using Copics. I also splattered some orange ink on the card to create a bit of a background in the large white space. I die cut the sentiment twice in orange and grey card using the Thinking of You Phrase Die and overlapped them when adhering them to the card. Quick, easy, clean and simple! I hope you feel inspired to play along with our challenge this month.

Stamps: STAMPlorations In Bloom: Classic Calla Lilies
