I chose an angel for my Things Are Looking Up - something you can see in the air.
A CAS card for sure, but sometimes CAS isn't as simple as you think. Black ink can smudge on coated card stock. Ask me how I know this! After several tries with different inks...success. Then when I turned my camera on...memory card full. Oh why not??? This should have been a 5 minute card...instead it turned into a 45 minute card! LOL!
Thanks for checking out my card and thanks for your kind comments!

Oh boy, have I been there and done that - smudging, full SD card, and all!! Glad you saw it through because this is a beautiful CAS card - love the shimmery gold cardstock with the contrasting black - this is such a pretty whimsical angel! Thanks so much for playing in the challenge today, Lee-Anne!

Oh yes, yes indeed. CAS cards take me longer than anything else and more failures end up in the bin. But the metallic card adds such a touch of luxury to your pretty angel. I find StazOn the best if I want to minimise the chance of smudges.
