The CAS challenge is a beautiful inspiration photo this week. My card is 4 1/4" square. After I cut out the image with a square Nestie, I got the idea to also cut/emboss with a circle Nestie within the square. I used a large square Nestie to help me line up the dotted outline frame with my black marker.

Charlene, this is so adorable! I love your images and that the outside stitching matches the stitching in the stamps. Great idea to emboss the circle inside the square - you are so clever!!

Charlene, your card is just amazing. I am so impressed with your creativity. I love the square format, sweet pastoral scene, colors, Nesties and how you finished it off with the faux sewing. TFS

what a cute scene from the fun picture...really like how you did your circles, and the "stitching" around the edge sure is a great finishing touch...TFs..:0)
