CAS card for someone special

by Aga

Hello Everyone! It's Aga here today with another super simple CAS card. The idea for this card started with using a beautiful sentiment written in an elegant flowing font to make some frame for a flower.

First I used a thin black pen to draw a frame in the centre of my card and added dots around it. Then I stamped the sentiment from Thinking of You set on the outside. I love how it turned out all together so I wanted to keep my embellishments to a minimum and make the frame to be seen.

So, I stamped a flower from Wild Hibiscus set in light grey and used watercolours to add some colour to it. Then I again stamped the flower with black, this way I don’t have to worry about smearing ink when using watercolours. I cut it out with the coordinating die set and added to my card.

I think there are endless possibilities of what can be put inside the frame.
Thank you for stopping by today and have a great weekend!
Aga

That is absolutely beautiful. I love your hand drawn frame (don’t think mine would come out as nice, but I definitely will be trying this!) Thanks so much for the wonderful inspiration!
