CAS on Kraft

Today I have a very simple card to share with you.  Prickles Says Hello is the free digi set this month for the From the Heart Progressive Challenge.  And here is Prickles saying Hello:

I printed him on white twice and kraft once, fussy cut the cute little guy and paper pieced him onto the white.  Also, I colored the white banner and butterfly, fussy cut them and paper pieced them.  I added couple of nice globs of liquid glass on his spectacles, colored the flowers and sponged around the white base with blue and green.  After embossing just the bottom of the green background paper, I did a bit of sanding.  Finally I wrapped a bit of bakers twine around the image 3 times before mounting it on the kraft card base.  I always think the simpler design lends itself to a more masculine card, as does the knot instead of a bow and absence of a lot of bling.
