Tuesday Talk

Hi! I'm here today to share a card I made for the challenge at Addicted to CAS where the code word is PLAID.

http://www.addictedtocas.blogspot.co.uk/2016/04/challenge-87-plaid.html

Here's my card:

I knew I had a pad of plaid papers lurking in my stash and went searching for a suitable colour to paper piece a flower.  As the plaid pattern is quite a large design I needed a large flower stamp so I chose Uniko's Gerbera.


I kept my card CAS by simply adding a bold sentiment under the flower head.

Supplies:
Stamps: Uniko, Pure Florals: Gerbera, All Occasion Sentiments #1
Ink: Memento, tuxedo black
Paper: Paper Cellar, squares

I'm also popping this card into Less is More's challenge where they want designer paper in a CAS style.
We'd love you to display our banner


So pleased you had time to drop by today, thanks so much.  And keep crafting!
