It’s been a few weeks since I have been able to participate in the CAS challenge at SCS! Today’s is a fall color challenge of kraft, red, vanilla & brown. My sister won a triathalon in SC yesterday; she came in first in her age class, so I thought this little card would be fun to send to her. We both love coffee and I certainly don’t have any triathalon-type stamps, so I thought she would get a kick out of this:
I love the embossing technique that Silke did here, so I cased that; her stamping is perfection! I struggled with wanting to add a ribbon or something, but I stuck with CAS! Okay, busy day, gotta run! Edited to add: the mini embossing folder I used is from Cuttlebug; it is called Just My Type.
- Stamps: Itty Bitty Bits, Essential Sentiments, MFT
- Paper: Crumb Cake, Very Vanilla
- Ink: Cherry Cobbler, Chocolate Chip
- Acc: CB EF, Scorer, 1/2” Circle Punch, Dimensionals
And here is my sister Gail (out of us three girls, she definitely got the athletic gene!):
Gail & Russ:
I’m pretty darn proud of her! Thanks for visiting today!

LeAnne, This card is awesome! I love the colors, and your use of the negative space, which is what CAS is all about, is wonderful! Great job. I have put you in my email additions so will see your cards EVERY TIME now. You are very talented and it shows. Isn't it wonderful that God made us all unique, even within the same family!
