My name and CAS are not words you usually see in the one sentence LOL. This cute little bear stamp was a lovely gift from Gabby (Gabalot) and so very perfect for Lee's special challenge for HYCCT.
The inspiration for this card is Angie (ohmypapers!) at her fun CAS challenge this week - a touch of pink.
I started by stamping the sentiment with Distress Ink - black soot. I then sponged a very watery puddle of blue distress ink over the background, carefully avoiding the sentiment as it was also done in distress ink and would have made a big mess.
I stamped the bear on the back a small textured Project life card. After colouring with copics i fussy cut around the bear leaving a tiny border. 3D foam tape has been popped under his tummy.
Fence and purchased flower added, then doodled a border.

I have started a new board on pinterest, and this is one of my first additions. The board is "boarders for cards". You add such nice boarders to your already fantastic cards. Even though I was surprised to see you in the CAS gallery, I was not surprised to find that your card is tertific.

Susie you did such a great job with both challenges! CAS might not be your preferred style but you do it exquisitely just like all your creations! I like your doodled frame to finish it all off!

Really cute and I thought it was a very creative touch to pop up his tummy and make him a little fatter. Love the fence - well and everything else about the card!
