Guest Designing at CAS on Friday

I have the pleasure of being the Guest Designer for the current challenge at CAS on Friday where the theme is Hello. Thank you so much for having me, ladies!

I went super CAS with my card and kept the elements at a minimum. I created the background with a stencil from the Penny Black stencil set Background Basics and did a bit of ink blending with Distress Oxide inks in Salvaged Patina and Uncharted Mariner before splattering some white watercolour paint onto the circle. I used an older Winnie and Walter die for the word, die cutting it from dark grey cardstock. The flower is die cut with a die from Simply Graphic. I adhered the die cuts in their places and matted the panel onto a piece of dark grey cardstock before embellishing the card with some black gems.

Please be sure to pop by the CAS on Friday blog to see the wonderful inspiration provided by the Design Team and don't forget to join in the challenge!
