get well soon



Today, I have a CAS (clean and simple) card to share.  The Larger than Life and Life stamp sets work so well for CAS cards.  I stamped the flower silhouettes across the bottom of my card and added some white highlights with a paint pen.  When it was dry, I added a ribbon tied across the top and a sentiment using Fillable Frames #10 and its coordinating die.

This card is listed over in my esty shop now.  Have a great day!

Niki

This is definitely my style of cards Niki. The white pen on the flowers almost gives it an embossed shine to the flowers. Very pretty.
