Catcher of the Beasts CAS Card

March 02, 2019

Hi Kindred Stamps addicts! Rachel Winn, here with my take on a CAS(ish) card. We were trying to find inspiration for a make and take for the Simon Says Create event later this month and needed to know which shade of green ink to use, so I got inky!

Now, I didn't have the stamp set that will be used for the event (shocking, I know!) so instead, I pulled out Cather of Beasts to try out the concept instead!

I started by stamping my gentleman using Memento Tuxedo Black then do a rough fussy but around him. I placed the cut out image on my card front, but did not tape him down. I took the little plant beast and stamped him several times using Distress Oxide in Pine Needles ink. I kept the plant to the bottom half of the page so they kind of grouped around my gentleman.

I colored up my gentleman and used a few dimensionals to pop him up off the card. I used Catherine Pooler Icing On The Cake to stamp the sentiment. Then I mounted the card front on a pre-cut brown card base that matched the color of the sentiment.

Normally, I am a fan of embellishments and couldn't stand to leave an image uncolored but I felt like this simplicity worked for Catcher of the Beasts quite well! Hopefully you have enjoyed my take on a CAS card, I can't wait to see what you chose to do with Catcher of the Beasts yourselves! You can see more of my work on my blog, and on my Instagram.

Until next time,

R. Winn
