This is my Thank you Card for Paula aka mrslaird for all the wonderful CAS challenges. I decided to CASE this card for my Thank You. I was very inspired by the simple beauty of your card, Paula.
I'm thinking it sure doesn't look CAS, but all I did was ink the white CS directly with several colors of ink. Then I inked the embossing folder with orange Stamp It ink, ran the already inked CS through, and stamped the sentiment. I sure do like how it turned out.

OMGoodness! This is fabulous! At first I thought you'd used embossing paste, but now I see you used an embossing folder! You should be extremely proud--I love it!

Beautiful! That is a technique I need to try sometime. Yours came out really pretty!

So you inked the card first and then got such a beautiful, lighter impression? Genius, Carol! This card is awesome and love the wonderful verse you chose for it!

Amazing! I thought it was embossing paste, too! I never would have thought you'd get such a contrast dry embossing! Love it! I adore the colors you used, too!

You have inspired me!! I've had this EF for a while now and only made one card with it...which didn't even turn out good enough to post :-( I think I'll give it another go!! Would never have thought to do what you did with the ink. TFS and nicely done!

Stunning result, Carol, this is a truly beautiful card with a beautiful verse - I, too, thought you had used embossing paste at first, what great texture on this!!
