CTS 36

DSCF6458

Happy Saturday, peeps!  Just a quick card this morning, CAS it is, for the (CAS)E This Sketch challenge this week:

I went a bit literal here; I had this gorgeous piece of Epic Day This & That paper, and I wanted to use it for something that wouldn’t hide the pretty pattern.  I stamped the larger image from Everything Eleanor in white and added the bird in Stazon along with a sentiment from my new favorite set, A Dozen Thoughts:

I did a little shadow around the outside of the panel to make it stand out a bit and then added a few random pearls and it’s done!

Easy peasy!  Be sure to come back tomorrow to see what the Paper Players have come up with for their next challenge, too!

I am blessed to have a haircutting friend who comes to my door, so Dana asked her if she would trim Cassidy’s hair a bit. 

Cassidy sat very, very still (amazing):

But she wasn’t real happy about the squirt of water on her hair:

But Mommy was there to hug her when it was all over:

And she got to help clean up!  (Can  you see how much she took off?  Not much!)

And for being a good girl, she got to run in the puddles!

Very pretty, LeAnne! So simple, but the DSP is gorgeous and the stamps you selected are perfect. I'd love to hear how you did your "shadow" stamping. Hugs :) Sandy

I just love it. It looks like it was fun to make!

What a great reward! LOL She is so cute. I remember my son thinking it was going to hurt to have his hair cut. When I was little I had the same hair cut I have now. LOL I had so much hair that Mom kept it short until I was 4 or 5.
Always love an easy card that looks so great!

Ohh, Cassidy looked so sad during her hair trim. So glad to see the happy picture at the end there. What a sweetie. Your card is so subtle and pretty. I love the added pearls. This is a pretty sketch.
