This time I tried a CAS (short for Clean And Simple) card and I must say that it turned out just the way IÂ’d imagined if not better. This card contains two of my firsts: one is getting a border using nestabilities and the other is shading using sponging. I stamped the image in black ink, clear embossed it and then colored. For the water, I sponged using blue pigment ink and then added some swirls using a darker shade of ink and a tortillion. At the end I added some glitter to it. For the sky, I used a red, orange and yellow ink. First I sponged the yellow (lighter first), then shaded over it with orange and finally red. All the sponging was done with nestabilities in place so that color doesnÂ’t go over other parts of the card. I also maked the image while doing the sponging.

Gorgeous! I love the bright colours against the white - it makes everything about your scene pop wonderfully! And the little bit of glitter was the perfect touch. Just lovely
