CAS187 - Thinking of You

Photo Details

Poster: BarbieP

Today, Denise gave us a CAS challenge using color block (CAS187). I love this look, and as I am always in need of note cards, this was perfect.

My stamped images also fit last week's CAS challenge (CAS186 fabric) because I used a newly acquired garage sale find (my SU Wonderful Weaves set).

My silhouette is also a newly acquired garage sale find (SU Garden Silhouettes). The sentiment is from Gina K. stamps. I ran the image panel through CB EF to give it texture and mounted on a black panel.

Really quick and easy card, best kind for note cards :) Thanks for taking a closer look, hope you like it.

Love your card, especially the textured feel to it. Great finds at the garage sale, I'm jealous of the wonderful weaves set! Nicely done!

Perfect card for both CAS challenges, Barb. Love the "fabric" block stamps and their soft colors make such a lovely bg for your silhouetted foliage. The overall embossing gives another added interest.

Very pretty. The embossing really gives a nice soft look to the block prints.

I don't know where you live, but you have some great garage
sales! It's always great to find craft items you want at a great price.
Your card is lovely. Great design and choice of colors. It's
beautiful without spending hours on it. TFS

The embossing is a nice touch on an already great card.
