Best Day Ever card

Hello my dear crafty friends! Irit is here today and after a long few weeks without web connection I am finally back with my new fancy and warm card made with gorgeous CAS- ual Fridays stamp and Fri- die set.

After a few post with Christmas and Hanukkah projects I decided to make something general and not green or blue.
So this card is in all warm colors and made as a grid card.
I punched a lot of rectangles and squares in different sizes first. Then I colored then with warm inks and glued over a piece of sticker paper. The gaps were filled with light pink glitter and my background was done.
It takes some time to punch, color and arrange the pieces over the sticker paper. But then it was almost finished as this kind of a card doesn't need much more, but the fancy sentiment.

 The sentiment was done with CAS- ual Fridays stamp and Fri- die set Best Day Ever.
First I stamped the sentiment and then die cut it and glued over another die cut layer.

The only embellishments added were square rhinestones to keep it in this " angled" arrangement.
The layered die cut was covered with clear 3d glue that is not much seen on the photo.

This are CAS- ual Fridays products used here:

I really hope that you like my card and please visit our CAS- ual Fridays shop as we have a lot of great deals in the shop!

Happy Hanukkah card with CAS-ual Fridays

Hello my dear crafty friends!
Irit is here today and  I am going to share my first Hanukkah card made this year.
 I know that both Christmas and Hanukkah are far far away, but we'd better try to make our cards in advance as if you try to make them just before the Holidays you never  make them after all...
And when you work with CAS- ual Fridays stamps and die you have the most perfect selection of Hanukkah and Judaical products.

 I didn't make the full step by step tutorial for this card, but I think that the written explanation will do the job.
So this is a partially transparent card and it was made with transparent piece that is hidden under the cardstock top.
The transparency is embossable and I stamped two CAS- ual Fridays  8 Happy Nights sentiments one near another with Memento Luxe pigmented blue ink and heat embossed it with clear embossing powder.
Then the stamped transparency was glued to the back cardstock.
On another piece of white cardstock I glued CAS- ual Fridays Hanukkah Fri- dies, all of them , and then misted the fronts with a mix of blue mists.
When it was dry I cut the front into two pieces as shown and glued to the transparency.
The only embellishments added are silver drops added to the number 8 and over the card.

I also added a bit of light blue mist inside the card for the contrast under the transparency.

 As you can see the stamping on transparency can be quite perfect if you check the transparency and it's heat resist one.

 Here are the stamps I used to make this card:

 8 Happy Nights

Hanukkah Fri-dies

CAS-ual Fridays Tic Tac Toe challenge

Hello my dear crafty friends and welcome to our Tic Tac Toe CAS-ual Frdays challenge!
This is a Tic Tac Toe board that you can use to make this challenge.

For my take of the card I used the lower horizontal line with Shaker card- Rainbow and texture.
 As you can see the focal point of the card is a shaker.
The texture was made with texture paste and a stencil. The rainbow colors were added using Ranger's alcohol inks in 6 colors.
 I used a stamps from CAS-ual Fridays Dream, then Do set that was stamped with pigmented ink and heat embossed with black powder. This is the only way to mist the stamped image without damage to the stamped image.
