Fox Says Hi

It is time for another CAS Colours & Sketches challenge. Check out the latest challenge:

Here’s my take:

Fox Says Hi | by karen @ carefree creations

When I saw these colors, I immediately wanted to use the coral to stamp a fox! The rest of the card just came together after that.

All the stamped images are fussy cut and then popped up with craft foam.

Normally I don’t have much to say in my posts, but today…

Trying to come up with post titles after years of blogging is HARD! Of course the internet sensation “what does the fox say” popped into my head and wouldn’t leave, so I went with it. Did you know that thing is about 4 years old? I’m used to internet memes going stale quick and it feeling like it was ages ago but finding out it was only weeks or months…but this one is really years! Of course I feel like 2000 was just a couple years ago (and yet, the last 6 months have felt like years). Time is messed up!! Is it cuz I’m old or because I spend way to much time on the internet?

Moving on. I hope by the time this post goes live (in 3 weeks – I’m working way ahead) that this problem will be remedied, but right now I am missing craft supplies. I’m a fairly organized person – things have a place and I clean up when I’m done. So how am I missing things?? And I don’t mean like a tiny clear stamp either. One of the items I’m missing is my Sentiment Splits Curve Vertical cover plate die from Papertrey. The last time I used it was months and months ago (I used what I die cut with it just a month ago, but the actual cutting was back in December). Anyway…it is not where it belongs. I thought the curved bit at the bottom would have been perfect as the landscape for my card today…instead I had to find a different solution. I ended up using a large piece from the Waves cover plate. I feel like I’m loosing my mind!

I hope you join us at CAS Colours & Sketches!

Thanks for stopping by!

  1. Oh how your post made me smile – the time going by bit not your missing craft supplies! Fabulous foxy card.

  2. Darling card ! I can totally relate on thew missing craft supplies. Usually I straighten up a bit and find what i misplaced. I am a very messy crafter.

  4. I so know how you feel, I have loads of ‘missing’ craft supplies! I try to be tidy and organised, but sharing a studio space with my hubby means things tend to get moved or misplaced easily!
    LOVING your card, the colours work perfectly for the Fox and little scene. Beautiful CAS design. Hugs Bev x
