CASology 302 and SIP152 Smile


Happy Wednesday, everyone!  I have a bright, happy CAS creation for you today using the colors from Stamp Ink Paper and the cue of "squiggle" from CASology:


When I checked the samples from the CASology blog, the term "squiggle" looked like it was used pretty loosely, LOL, so I thought it would be okay to use some new MFT dies that I just got.  So here we go:


My "squiggle" is the wonky stitching around the edge of the center panel; I added elements in the challenge colors with some flowers in Highland Heather, a pretty new SU color, Lemon Lime Twist and Coastal Cabana, which is returning (YAY!):


The "smile" die was a free gift, so I put that to good use, embellishing it with a little flower too!


On the inside, I stamped a greeting from Stitched All Around:

I resisted putting any other embellishments on, as it is supposed to be CAS!  Thanks for popping in today!

A few more pictures from the Apron Strings;  this little cutie is Piper, and she is my friends' Robyn and Claudia's granddaughter...yes, we have lots of families whose children grew up in church and went on to get married to each other!  Anyway, Piper was proud to show off her "Chef Piper" apron:


After Piper showed us her apron, Mom Mom Robyn showed us an apron that her grandmother made for her when Robyn was three years old:


When Piper saw the little apron, she piped up, "MomMom, you should give that apron to ME!"  We cracked up!  Enjoy your day and be blessed!

A truly wonderful, bright, and cheer-filled card, LeAnne! and that apron will surely go to Piper … one day! I wouldn't let it go yet! In fact, I have one that my mom made me when I was around 4!

The stitched dies really add another dimension to your clean design LeAnne. I'm loving the bold "Smile" sentiment too. Thanks so much for joining us at Stamp Ink Paper for this week's colour challenge. Carolyn xx
