Now on to my card details:
This month I decided to make a more CAS card with a little less detail. For my creation, I used the beautiful Daisy stamp set and the spotlighting technique. The focal point is colored with copics. The designer paper is from SU Holiday Traditions (retired). The gingham ribbon is one of my scraps. I thought it adds a country flair. The image is framed with the Spellbinder Label 20 die. Spellbinders Petite Ovals large and small were used to cut the inside of the frame and mat the image. The outside borders are created with the Floral Doily Accents.
This second card is one I posted as a sneak but I thought I would post it for the hop for those who have not seen it. It uses the Little Things and Honey Comb Background stamps at ODBD The border along the top is done with Floral Doily Accents from Spellbinders. The background is embossed in gold and bordered with gold glitter paper. The flowers are altered single prima flowers (very old stash) crumpled and layered together to make fuller blooms. The leaves are made with a Martha Stewart leaf punch and a Cheery Lynn Fanciful Flourish die. The stick pin has pearls and gold glittered balls (from a floral swag at Michaels). The lace and seam binding was gifted to me by my dear friend Sabrina. Thanks Sabrina!!
Your next stop on the hop will be the amazing Becca!!!
Thanks for stopping by today and for all your comments!! Have a great day!!

What a stunning card Chris!! I just love the spotlighting technique on the first one and the honeycomb background with the floral spray on the second.

What gorgeous cards Chris!! I just love the yellow and green combo paired with the white and cream on each!! The spotlighting really makes the image the focal point!! TFS!
hugs,
Anne
Both cards are so pretty!! Love the "cameo" look to the first one and the simplicity of the second (that lace is a gorgeous touch, btw!) Your design work is wonderful!
Oh my, Chris! TWO real beauties!! Love the spotlighting effect with the daisies on the first card, and was floored with the way the honeycomb draws the focus for the Scripture on your second! Just stunning!
Hugs!
I saw your first card and was busy thinking what to say and then I saw you had made a second card... they are both beautiful in their own ways but I think my fav is the first with the pearls at the bottom and the technique you used on the daisies with only a circle portion in color as if looking through binoculars and that portion is more in focus! But they both really are fab!
Nice! I like everything about your beautiful cards. Color choice, spotlighting, layout, did I say everything. Thank you for sharing your creativity Chris. Love the new ODBD stamps and thanks for giving us a chance to win them. Blessings
Beautiful Cards love both. love the colors and papers. the lace and ribbons make them have that special pop factor. thanks for sharing and for the chance to win.

Wow Chris!! Gorgeous cards, I just love your work, and how you put it all together, Love the spotlight on your daisies, beautifully coloured!! hugs Jan
So precious-Chris!!! I especially love the creativity that you show in the first card----how that the flowers are in black and white (maybe the way the world tends to see some things ) and THEN---the beautiful splash of color in which the Lord Jesus so freely gives to us!!! UBER!! Thanks you, be blessed beyond Measure

I love how you dcreated these cards, the spotlight effect on this card, really brings attention; and the honeycomb on the second turned out with such elegance as you finished the card
Truly stunning and gorgeous cards!! Wow! So beautiful!
Great spotlighting technique on the first card and wonderful second with the floral detail.
Both cards are beautiful, but that first one is outstanding.....love, love, love the way you have colored the flowers in the circle and the dies you used. Gorgeous paper and stitching and what a fab bow with that embellie, border on the sides are a perfect finish. Blessings and thanks for sharing such a gorgeous card.
You combine simple and sweet with elegance. Perfect balance.
Both od these cards are lovely. Love how you used the sets.
Hi Chris, no time for hopping I'm afraid. I just popped over to see what you are up to :) Love your card, I think I've seen that honeycomb before and loved it then. This is a gorgeous creation. Hugs, Frea
Oh So Beautiful:) Sandra H
Love the circle focal point.
Elegant card! I like the spotlighting technique with the daisies and the honeycomb background is intriging.
Both cards just seem to say this is just for you from my heart. They are truly beautiful. The honeycomb background was my choice when I thought I would break the set up and purchase by the piece. So many uses for that stamp.
Both cards are stunning and worth studying for you have so much detail in them!
Lovely cards.

Chris, the spotlight technique is a super idea with this image...LOVE it! I'm a big fan of green, so that's a hit with me as well! :-)
Oh Chris, both are amazing cards!! I love the feminine touch you give to everything you make!!
What a gorgeous card. I have to get this set. I love this card.

Both of your cards are just beautiful. I love the spotlighting technique with the daisy stamp. Great job.
Oh how gorgeous!! I love the colors!! I absolutely adore the flower... I love the embossing...
Gorgeous job!!!
Hugs,

CAS? Really? Maybe for you but not for me, there's quite a few details there! : ) Very nice cards, cool effect with the spotlight image on the first card and I like the gold embossing and flower arrangement on the 2nd card. I should try making some of those flowers with all my single prima flowers I seem to have scattered everywhere and don't use. Thanks for the inspiration, they look great!
wow, such a great job of coloring and i love how you offset the colored image and just the stamped image. your layering is great. your honeycomb card is just so clasic. i love to see lace being utilized.
Glowbug! Gorgeous work! I love the honeycomb sentiment, I love your pearls with the daisies and I love the spotlight technique!
I have never seen a focal point like that, and I can't wait to use the technique. The second card is my favorite in the hop. LOVE it.
Beautiful cards - not sure which one I like the best. The details are wonderful! Wow!!!
The cards are great. I love being able to use up my scraps and then it turning out so good. Thanks
Both cards are beautiful!
Chris, your spotlight techinque with the daisies is just amazing...love the bunch of flowers on the second card too! Hugs!
STUNNING beyond words, Chris!!~
The ribbon and the sunflower is great.
Print vip cards
Transparent business cards
Lovely card, love the country feel!
Beautiful cards.The daisy and honeycomb stamps are fast becoming a must have item.Thank you.
Chris rhis card is cute too as any from your creations!
Oh wow! Gorgeous use of technique in the first card and a very effective use of the honeycomb stamp as a fence showcasing the flowers in the second. Very clever!
you know EVERYTHING you do is gorgeous. i love that honeycomb background! i saw the new release of it and am still "mulling" it over. maybe santa will surprise me - ya think???
13 inches of snow? already? ugh!!!! sure hope the sun is shining and things are wonderful with you. i DO think of you often..... and SMILE FROM EAR-TO-EAR!!!!
hugs my friend.
I love how you made the middle of the flowers colored so they POP right out at you! Great technique.
Wow! Gorgeous cards. Love the spot light technique, I might try that one, it really makes it pop! I also love that honeycomb back ground stamp and how you used the flourishes on that card. Great looking cards, thanks for sharing! ~Gin~
Absolutely beautiful!!! Really like the use of the hotspot on the first card! Thanks for sharing your talent and creativity!
Love the positive and negative on your card. Great job!
Hello Chris, love both your cards, and I especially like the focus treatment in ther first. The colored oval seems to stand out from the page very effectively...I love drama in art!
Both cards are gorgeous, but the second one is the one that really caught my eye the most!! Love the way you did the flowers on the first one and the gingham ribbon, and especially the middle of the bow! But the layout of the second one on the honeycomb background to look like a lattice with the stunning flowers and vine is a "WOW" for sure!!
Lovely cards, Chris! ;)
I think the first card is my favourite. Very nicely done.
Love the use of the spotlight technique, very pretty! Both cards look lovely, I especially like the honeycomb background and how you used it.
Wow Chris - these cards are both gorgeous! I love the bow on the first one! The flowers on the second are so gorgeous against that honeycomb background - I have got to have that set! Thanks for sharing!
