A Quick CAS Birthday Card

I saw the stamps sitting by my desk, they were just asking to be inked up. I didn't have a lot of time but I wanted to make a card. Out came some pretty inks, a punch or two, a bit of ink spray and a couple minutes later, here's what happened:


It took longer to photograph the card than it did to make it! And I'm really happy with the CAS look of it too. I love that it's just stamping, nothing fancy. I layered the stamped panel on a Hero Hues Pool card base. The butterflies were punched out of stamped cs then spritzed with Mister Huey's.

And here's what I used:


Thanks for stopping by!

    It's gorgeous, Nanc! I love the softness of the hydrangea behind the sentiment - beautiful, layered stamping!

    Fun use of great stamps and lovely colors, Nancy. That hydrangea is an old fav and I love how you used it. I'm still grappling with the spraying - not controlled enough for my style, but I'm determined. Thanks - this is so sweet.
