First, I have to say that I am stretching things by putting this in the CAS challenge, but it is one layer with a stamp colored with copics glued to a layer stamped with bubble wrap....no bling, bows or glitter. Plus, it is a thank you for a sweet friend who gave me this cool stamp for my birthday, so I aced Kathy's friendship theme. The bg piece is Sabrina's bubble wrap stamping on steroids. I taped the bubble wrap to a large acrylic block and stamped first with light teal, then with dark teal and finally with magenta. I just had to splatter s little water on it. The actual stamp was the square with the flowers. I used the misti and stamped the TH striped border on all 4 sides. I had the lady bug stamps and used the misti to stamp 4 of them. The sentiment is from hampton arts and i stamped 4 of them too. There is only one problem...i only had one piece of bubble wrap and it was wrapped around a piece of china in my China hutch drawer. If the BIG ONE hits (I live in So. Calif...earthquake country) my China bowl is toast. TFL, Francie

A superb card, especially since you had to use the bubble wrap from your China bowl to make it! I especially like how you shaded those three purple flowers. It really gives them dimension.

I like the effect of your multiple stamping, Francie! It makes me think of the polished stone technique, but without the worry of overworking it - and all the little bits of fuzz from the felt applicator pad, LOL. As always your colouring is just so gorgeous and makes me happy to look at.

I always enjoy your bright and colorful cards, Francie. You certainly did ace this challenge! And I'm now picturing your china all wrapped up in inky bubble wrap
