Today I gave a fun card that I made using the Artiste cartridge and the Cloud Nine stamp set. I mulled over the design, but then I remembered a cuttlebug embossing folder (part of a set called Skyward) that I have that has clouds on it. After that it all just came together.
After I embossed the cardstock I took sandpaper to it to expose the white core. Then I traced the outlines of the clouds with a white pen.

The sun is always there behind the clouds. What a lovely card to cheer someone up and remind them that there is a silver lining to every cloud. You brightened my morning!
Thanks for sharing. :)
Very pretty card I love how you designed the sky very pretty.

What a great card, and I love "Just Because" cards, they always come in handy when someone needs that special squeeze and hug, especially from afar. Thinking I'm going to have to get this card set.
I'm glad to see different things done with the cloud nine kit stamps because I LOVE them! Thanks for the inspiration! And the great giveaway...
Cute card - thanks for sharing.
Cute. I have that embossing folder & love your idea about sanding it! Thanks for a great tip!
Like the Sunshine card; after all Sunshine is 1/2 of my nickname.

I do like those cloud 9 stamps, your card came together perfectly!
I'm really enjoying what you have been doing with the cloud 9 stamps. The colors of the papers in the kit are not my style, but I love the stamps.
I really love blue/yellow together! Very nice!

Think the "Small Talk" cartridge has SO many possibilities - thanks for the opportunity to win it :-)

I love this card! I like the embossed clouds and I like that you use several layers to matt your cards. I want to work on that more. It adds a real dimension and beauty. They look very complete, put together. I like that. Thank you for continuing to inspire us.
I'm really enjoying what you have been doing with these 2 cartridges-Artbooking and Artiste. Thanks for sharing.
Cute card! I love the cloud background! Thanks for sharing.
Cute card! Very useful to.
I'm a huge fan of "just because" cards. I love to surprise a friend or family member with a "just because" card. I learned this from my mom years ago. She was an expert at sending cards. (I'm nowhere as good as she was, but I try!)
Great card. Very nice and cherry.
I love having "Just Because" cards on hand. I love your design. Thanks for the inspiration.
What a lovely card! I really like the colours you chose!
