Going Off the Grid!

WWPA2013-07-28 Off the Grid Main Here we are on a beautiful, sunny, laid back Sunday afternoon. A great day to go off the grid for a few hours. Before I go, here’s a quick CAS project share for you.

When I say quick, I mean at the speed of light, at least for me. On Friday, July 26th, one of my Stampin’ Pals offered a challenge. Post a CAS (clean and simple) card by Sunday, July 28 at noon central time. Well, I had a full weekend scheduled but was determined to be part of the fun.

Tick-Tock, Tick-Tock

At 11:40 Central, I started. No problem for some paper crafters but me, now that’s a different story. The only thing I could do to speed it up was grab the scraps and supplies already on my table. Thanks to scraps from a Convention Make ‘n Take, no punching or cutting was needed.

M&T Scraps used

Coastal Cabana and Calypso Coral Classic Inks were also at my finger tips as well as some Large Rhinestones and one of my favorite new stamps… Off the Grid. Good thing it’s only available in wood-mount. Mounting a clear-mount stamp to a block would have taken more time… and the clock was ticking!

#130736 Off The Grid Stamp Set Wood Mount Only

One last thing needed… a sentiment! What, no modern sentiment? Since “Oh, Hello” is sitting here all mounted up on an acrylic block it will just have to do!

#130733 Oh, Hello Clear Mount Stamp Set

Hmmm… kind of like it.

Done in 5! No kidding. The photography and posting took me another 10 minutes. Posted with 5 minutes to spare. Can I go take a nap now?
