The CASology cue card for Week 112 is Three. I immediately got an earworm of Three Blind Mice.
I've been hearing the phrase, "I have an app for that" for a while. I never say it because I have a "dumb as a rock phone". (It makes calls, it's what I like it to do. I also have a GPS and a camera. The downside, is it's more to carry. The upside is that if one thing stops working, the other two usually carry on.) Unlike many people in the world though, I often say "I have a stamp for that." Even if I have to carve it myself lol.
In this case I carved the mouse on a pink eraser. Really easy to cut, but I feel I have to be careful when I clean it lest I erase a leg or ear or part of the tail.I stamped it with a white pigment ink and drew the sunglasses on with a Sharpie. The card base is Papertrey Ink Classic Kraft

Seahorse Birthday Card
Simon Says Boldly Go. The image is from Tim Holtz' Seahorse Sketch stamp, the sentiment is Papertrey Ink's Movers & Shakers stamp set (stamped with Faded Jeans Distress Ink). The seahorse is painted with Squeezed Lemonade, Spiced Marmalade and Rusty Hinge Distress Inks smooshed on my craft mat and spritzed with water. The background is painted with Tumbled Glass Distress Ink.
The seahorse is embellished with Black Diamond Stickles. Papertrey Ink True Black is used for a mat and the card base is Ocean Tides.

Enjoy the Journey
Simon Says Boldly Go. I used two of the stamps from Tim Holtz Visual Artistry The Journey. The plane is stamped with Versamark and then heat embossed with Zing! Neon Yellow Fluorescent embossing powder (which is very very bright lol). The sentiment is stamped with Black Soot Distress Ink. Then a frame of Peacock Stickles is drawn around the edges.

Getting those ducks in a row
Lawnscaping: One Layer Challenge. The stamps are from Lawn Fawn Hello Baby. I used Tumbled Glass, Squeezed Lemonade and Spiced Marmalade Distress Inks spritzed with water to paint. I also entered it into the Simon Says Stamp-it challenge.

CASology Week 111: Under
My second contribution to CASology Week 111. Under is used two ways. The first is images under "glass" (plastic packaging re-used). The chair is from Stampin' Up Have a Seat. And the twine is white hemp.
When the twine is pulled the sentiment is revealed under the chairs.
Since the chairs are stamped, I'm also entering it in Simon Says Stamp-It.

Make It Monday #178: Back to School Easel
Make it Monday #178: Back to School Easel. I went with more of a cafe inspirational board, than a back to school Easel. Everything is Papertrey Ink except for the Zing! White Opaque Embossing Powder (which I think can be found at PTI also). I used the hexagon die from Make It Market Co.: Luxe Letterpress to make the legs of the easel. I followed some of the techniques in the Make It Monday #98: Chalkboard Technique. The sentiment is from A Little Inspiration stamp set and the flowers are from the Stamp-a-faire 1940's mini kit. The cardstock is Dark Chocolate and True Black.
