oggi vi mostro tre biglietti CAS, semplici nel design ma con l'impiego di diverse tecniche. Prima ho creato delle sfumature con vari cuscinetti di inchiostro Distress, poi ho preso degli stencil e li ho usati per inchiostrare questi sfondi con dell'inchiostro bianco, che ho subito embossato con della polvere trasparente.
Infine ho fustellato dei cerchi e le lettere per formare la parola You. I bordi di queste lettere e le piccole decorazioni sotto i cerchi le ho ricavate da avanzi di carta che avevo colorato con gli acquerelli oro e che avevo creato per fare i 3 biglietti Zigzag oro e nero. Le lettere interne del biglietto n° 2 le ho ricavate dal cartoncino che avevo colorato di verde per fare delle foglie, come vedete alla fine del post dei 3 biglietti stencil e fiori.
Vi dico tutte queste cose perché sono un po' maniaca degli avanzi. Non butto via niente. La maggior parte delle cose piccole o piccolissime che vedete nelle mie creazioni le ricavo dagli avanzi. È incredibile quanti fiorellini, cuoricini o farfalle io riesca a ricavarne!
Alla fine di questo post vedrete, come sempre, un breve tutorial fotografico.
Hi, folks,
today I show you three CAS cards. They have a simple design, but I used many techniques. First, I made the backgrounds using some Distress inkpads. Then I took my favourite stencils and I used them to ink these backgrounds with a white inkpad. I embossed the images with a clear powder.
I die cut some big circles from the backgrounds and some letters to make the word You. These letters' edges and the small confetti under the circles were die cut from some scraps. A couple of months ago I coloured with my gold watercolours some white cardstock to make the 3 Black and gold zigzag cards. I still had some very small leftovers of this cardstock, so I have used them to complete these cards. I die cut the inside part of the letters from other scraps. The ones for card #2 were die cut from scraps of the green cardstock I coloured to make the leaves you can see at the end of the 3 Stencil and flowers cards.
I'm telling you this all because I am a leftovers-maniatic. I don't throw aways anything. Most of the small or tiny things you see on my crafts were die cut from leftovers. You can't believe how many tiny flowers, hearts or butterflies I can die cut from these scraps!
As usual, at the end of this post you will see a short photo tutorial.

Ecco la procedura.
Here's the making.
Mi dispiace, ho dimenticato di fare la foto in cui verso la polvere trasparente ed embosso.
I am sorry, I forgot to make the photo of the step when I put the clear powder and emboss.
Ecco gli avanzi dei biglietti zigzag oro!
Here are the leftovers from gold zigzag cards!
Questi sono gli avanzi dei biglietti con i fiori che ho usato per tagliare le lettere.
These are the leftovers of Flower cards I used to die cut the letters.
Spero che questi biglietti vi siano piaciuti!
I hope you like these cards!
