It's a sad day because it's the last challenge of the summer and for our wonderful design team. Harriet, Ann, and Lisa have been awesome and such a great source of inspiration. I'm very grateful for their time and talent.
It also means that the submissions for the Autumn DT has closed. Our current and past design team members will select our new DT and I will break any ties if necessary. I can't wait to see who they will be. Have you seen all the stunning creations?!? The new DT members will be notified on Tuesday and an announcement will be made soon after that.
And one more thing this last day of the summer CAS challenges means... It's make-over day! Find one of your OWN cards you'd like to remake. Remember to make it CAS {wink}. You can choose a CAS cards that you just want to improve. OR you can find a heavily layered and embellished card to make CAS.
I personally have a ton of choices since I'm an equal opportunity stamper. I use stamps from many companies and I make CAS and embellished cards!!!
I've been debating on whether I will get Stampin' Up's new pumpkin set being released on Tuesday. I love how it fits the punches. But I discovered that I can do the same with this old retired set from SU: Carved & Candlelit. The bottom oval is popped up on dimensionals
Stamps:Carved & Candlelit (SU), grass (DRS Designs)
Paper: white, pumpkin pie, black
Ink: pumpkin pie, black, old olive, close to cocoa
Accessories: Martha Stewart bat, cat, & bow punches; Stampin' Up circle and large oval punches, paper piercer & template (SU mat stack), dimensionals
Techniques: faux stitching
