Awww you've made my day, no, my week! Thanks so much Susan and Karen for picking up my lil' card and putting it into a spotlight!
I seriously didn't realise there was such a CAS following, including a CAS favourites post! Off to check out all the other CAS cards, it's not usually my style but I'm liking it more and more! Inky Hugs, Aimes x |
Karen, thank you sooooo much for mentioning my card!
The cards that have been mentioned in the other posts also get my vote for favorite! I am so inspired by everyone who contributes to the CAS category - you are all so talented! |
Wow!!! Thank you SO very much for the mention in this list :) BTW...Lorettal is a good friend and my absolute crafting mentor. The card I made is 98.99% cased from someone else (maryloves2stamp) and I'm grateful for her creativity.
My scrap heap has been growing in leaps and bounds lately, so I've been making most cards in multiples to use up supplies and minimize scraps. Thanks again for including me on this list! Too cool :) |
