Addicted to CAS ~ Challenge #273

This will be our last challenge at Addicted to CAS until January 11th, 2025. We will be taking a brief vacation for the holiday season. Our code word is


Isn't this the perfect word for winter in the Northern Hemisphere? Here's my card


For my card, I used Simon Hurley's Crop & Create Fall 2024 stamp set and die set which I received as part of the Scrapbook & Cards Today's Crop & Create Fall 2024 event. I stamped the adorable penguin with Versafine Onyx Black ink on 96 lb bristol. I added color with Zig Clean Color Real Brush markers in Cobalt Blue, Dull Blue, Yellow and Gina K Design's Wild Lilac and a water brush. When the ink dried, I die cut the image with the coordinating die. For the snow beneath the penguin's feet, I applied some Simon Hurley's Astro Paste in Frostbite on a white A2 card panel. For the pompom on the penguin's toque, I applied some Simon Hurley's Astro Paste in Clear Skies with my finger. Yes, with my finger - no palette knife or other tool required. Note - after application, I'd suggest washing your finger before the paste dried! LOL! The Astro Paste gives some texture and sparkle (which is very difficult to photograph). For the sentiment, I stamped with Versafine Onyx Black ink on a scrap of blue cardstock and heat embossed with clear embossing powder. I die cut the sentiment out and glued it in place. I trimmed the A2 panel slightly and then adhered it to a white A2 card base with double-sided tape to complete my card.

We'd love to see how you were inspired by our Code Word - Brrr in our gallery.
