A classic: the toilet roll card - CAS(E) this sketch #60

I embrace new tecniques and materials, but some times it's fun to take a step back and reuse some of the old one know. Like toilet rolls.

Do you remember how hot it was to use them some years ago? I used them for cards, minis, tags etc - covered them with pretty patterned papers and embellished my heart out.

Over the years my taste and style has changed and developed, and using the rolls the way I used to feel so - - - old fashioned!

Here is my "today's" take on the toilet roll card:



Corrugated paper: Fancy Pants. Patterned paper: Lemon Owl. Flower hair pin: Freckled Fawn
Coral hemp: Hemptique. Other hemp & rubon: unknown

Toilet rolls don't get completely flat even when bonefolded at the edges. I don't mind :-)



I got the idea for this card when I saw this fun sketch at CAS(E) this sketch:



I don't think I need to tell how I interpreted the sketch *lol*


Have you reused some older stuff or tecniques lately?

Hello! Hello! Hello! (card)

The has been a package of stickers laying on my desk for a while. I have made a layout with some of the stickers, and a card, but I never got round to use the rest of them. But when I saw this great sketch at CAS(E) this Sketch, I knew exactly what to do:





I admit it, for the past year, just because life has happened a little too much, I haven't been the best to keep in touch with people. I wouldn't be surprised if I was sent a card like this - a reminder of giving a friend a call.


CS: Bazill. Hello-stickers: Pebbles. Washi: Studio Calico (?). Badge: Freckled Fawn. Hemp:Hemptique


Yes, I think I'll send this to myself, with a list of who I need to start socializing again with..
Could you need a card like this, too?
