I have already watched today's videos and am excited to share three new cards that were inspired the this class, as well as some of my favorite challenge. It's been a LONG time since I have been able to play in the challenges, and I was very happy to start again today! All three cards use die cuts and all three all also being submitted to new challenges.
My first card was inspired by a card that Debby Hughes, who is one of the guest designers in class and also one a designer I love to follow. I loved the idea of created an "inlaying" my die cut, a technique I have seen many times, but never tried. For some reason, I always thought it would be a challenge, but Debby's steps made it very easy to follow!
In addition to the class gallery I am also submitted with card to the "Addicted to CAS" challenge where the theme this week is GREEN!!
I was quickly able to create a second card, with the "negative" pieces toe the Hello Die Cut, which is from Simon Says Stamp,
My next card is one and that I colored up with my Copics, and this card was inspired by Kathy Racoosin's - 30 Day Coloring Challenge, as well as the current "Fusion" Challenge.
Loving the color purple the way that I do, I knew right away that I would be playing in the Fusion Challenge, and I was very happy to break out a gorgeous new stamp from Penny Black, called Divine.
I inked up my stamp with black Versafine ink and stamped it onto some Neenah white cardstock. I then went to work with my Copics using the same colors as in the Fusion image -- Love them. I added a few highlights with a white gel pen and then complete the card with adding a die-cut "Love" sentiment -- another favorite from my SSS collection.
That's it for now as I need to get ready for my "in-home" - Physical Therapy. I have one of the best therapists I have ever had the pleasure of working with. His name is Darren, and he's young guy, probably about the same age as my oldest son, Brian. He's so personable and what I really like is that he doesn't PUSH me to a pain level....something many others did over the years and why I ended up hating PT! Thank goodness times have changed!
Well that it's for now -- time to get ready! Hope you have a wonderful day!

Two beautiful green cards, Lisa! Love that you were able to use both of the die cuts! Pretty flowers too! So glad you shared with us at ATCAS!
Such cool cards - I always try to use up everything, so I often end up with two cards as well. I am also part of the class, but I was not particularly inspired yesterday.....
Great to see you in class and again and recovering from your surgery.
Great looking cards Lisa! Glad to see you in class and that you are having fun creating again. It also seems things are going well after your surgery.
The white gel pen highlights are a great touch ... so very glad you joined our Floral Fusion at Fusion Card Challenge.
