CAS Masculine Card

Hi there.  We're having a rainy day today, so I'm having a well deserved break from gardening!  Spring is definitely moving right along.  My flowering bushes are all in their glory, but I also have an abundant crop of weeds in my flower gardens.  A lot of work is needed this year, but it will be worth it, I'm sure.  I'm just thankful that the hot summer temperatures are holding off.


Now for my card today, which uses a number of Tim Holtz rubber stamps and some distress inks.  I think of this as CAS, however, as it is not my normal type of design, I'm not too sure if I would call it simple.  My cards always take me longer to think out than to actually do.

I made this one up while having a play at my daughter's house.  It's always such fun to share ideas, and stamps and other goodies too!

Now I intend to have some fun in my craft room,...oh the joy of a rainy day!  Hope you have a fun day too!

  6. Fabulous Joyce, love this card and the layered stamping. Sounds like you have been busy in the garden, me too. We have had nearly a week of sunshine which has been lovely. I really feel like summer is here, don't know what happened to spring though.
    Have a great weekend.
