CASual Fridays 126


CASual Fridays 126 is a fun one--COLOR BLOCKS, using blocks of color
on your clean and simple project.

I hope my card qualifies. It's more "curves" of color than "blocks".


I finally opened the A2 Card Curved Edge die from Simon Says Stamp.
Raise your hand if you bought it. I was one of those who said, "Nah, I don't need that die.
I can trace a plate or a bowl. I can cut a curved line."

But I caved and bought it and now I'm calling it one of my favorite fun dies!
I paired the design with the Paper Smooches sentiment--again.



And you have until midnight tonight--January 25th--to leave a comment on this post
to win some Hero Arts goodies from me! Thanks for stopping by today!

    I think your card counts as curvy blocks of color!

    Love how you used the curved die on this card and the curved sentiment.

    OMG this is just perfect, Donna! Just look at the precision!! WOW! Love the colours you used too :) Can you believe I JUST got a die cutting machine at the beginning of the month, so I'm slowly stocking up on dies, with a wish list a mile long. This one just got added to it!

    Yes I bought it and your card is why. If it doesn't qualify for the challenge, I will start boycotting it. Your card is perfect.

    I'm raising my hand, and yes...I just bought this die, too :-)
    I love that you used curves for your color blocking, Donna! The colors are gorgeous, and who says blocking has to be square? Certainly not us!!!

    Great combination of colors and the curves give the card a softer feel.

    Didn't pick up this die as I couldn't imagine much use but, I was so wrong! Love your card and the nice balance of curves and colors. :)

    Oh look at those color curves!! Hahaha ... "I can cut a curve" ... that's totally what I would tell myself! But then do I ever? Nope! Not unless I have a die : ) You're the smart one, Donna! Love this. Thanks so much for joining the CAS-ual Fridays Challenge!

    Haha...I just read Kelly's comment....I'm totally the same. I adore your card! So bright and colorful and happy and I love that just a couple have patterns. I think I need this die.
