CAS 4 Double Trouble

We've been back from our winter stay in Florida for 18 days.  Things here are slowly getting back to normal.  And, once again, I'm making a few cards on an as needed basis.  Now you might think that the card I made today would not fall into that category.  However, the Double Trouble Challenge is one of my favorites and I made this card for my Double Trouble family.

Using a negative from die cutting those adorable hearts on stems, I stenciled them in the corner of my cs.  Next I added the flowers and leaves.  (This winter I picked up a piece of very pretty paper at HL that was filled with bunches of flowers, enough for all the gals in my card class.  I fussy cut them all.  There were just a few partial flowers around the edges which I also fussy cut, knowing I'd find the perfect spot for them.) I stamped a few little spots and my sentiment.  Then I embossed the entire piece before adhering it to my card base.  I'm very pleased with how this turned out.  I'm thinking of making a set to give as a gift.

The current Double Trouble Challenge is 

Challenge #164 "CAS Less But Better" partnering with Crafter's Cafe 

I'll be entering both challenges.

 

 

 

Thanks so much for visiting my blog.

Yesterday I made two baby cards to go with the two baby blankets I made in Florida.

I can't wait to show them to you.

First, I think it's time to unpack my suitcase.
