Hello Friend

Happy Sunday friend!  So, I have a very sunny, happy card for you today that I made using the latest CAS-ual Friday challenge- Bring the Bling!  Eek, love this challenge blog!  How bout you, have you played along yet?  Funny how this seems to be where my style leads me lately.  I think I will just roll with it!


Starting with an Orange Zest panel, I stamped my flower from Hero Arts/BasicGrey Hello Luscious stamps in Versamark and heat embossed it with white powder.  I then added some Rusty Hinge Distress Ink to the petals for depth, adding those lovely gems to the center!


I stamped my sentiment, inking the words seperately so they were next to each other onto a strip of white cardstock, matted it with yellow and adhered it to my cardfront with foam.


I hope this is CAS enough!  Sometimes I don't know when to stop!  Well, have a great day!

Lindsay
