For CAS(E) this Sketch

Hello lovely  bloggers,

This is my take for the challenge at CAS(E) this Sketch this week. My younger daughter, Aleeza (aged 12) did the layout for this card. The feathers have been made from Ferraro Rocher chocolate foil and I ran them through an embossing folder for added interest. The sentiment is handwritten and the gold border is from my stash. The background of the card has been done with yellow acrylic paint. I covered the front and back with yellow and it looks quite colourful. 

I will also take part in the following challenges:

Aleeza's card

 Hello bloggers,

Here is a card that Aleeza, my 12 year old made totally on her own while I was giving an art/card making class to a student. She made it in minutes, smooshing with distress oxides, a happy die cut sentiment and Birthday written in her handwriting. I thought it really turned out well. Maybe I can take a class from her. "The child is the father of man" or rather to be politically correct and in my words, "The child is the mother of women". Lol.

Hello - a collaboratory card

Dear sweet bloggers,

My younger daughter, Aleeza who is all of 12, made the background of this card with markers and I layered it on to a cardstock that was painted with acrylics. The teddy bear came all the way from the UK. A kind blogger by the name of Sandra Baldwin sent it to me. Aleeza hand wrote the sentiment as well and I stuck the layers together.

You're a STAR

Hello lovely peeps,

My daughter made this card entirely on her own. The stars have been die cut while the big silver heart was cut from a yoghurt lid.  The paper underneath was made by her using Smoosh. The sentiment was stamped using a clear acrylic stamp and the striped bands on either side of the sentiment was done by Aleeza with Sharpies. The bottom has washi tape. Don't ask how much Aleeza and I love Washi. Lol.
