A CAS Eclipse Card

Hello my crafty and creative friends!

Today I've got a CAS eclipse card to share with you.

If you've visited my blog before...

you already know that I am a true blue CAS card maker.

To add to my love of CAS cards...lately, I have been loving white backgrounds.

And so...I've been amping up the CAS look

of my recent cards with lots of crisp clean white backgrounds.

For today's amped up CAS card I started out with

Paper Smooches BLOSSOMING BUDS stamp set.

I chose the smaller blossom image .

I colored the image with Copic markers...

and used Stampin Up Alphabet dies to die cut the word  HAPPY.

I added a small "Birthday" sentiment by Mudra

to the lower right of the card.
I die cut the image piece with a stitched rectangle die.

Next. I chose a print that went well with the colored image...

and a deep violet colored solid card stock for matting.

I rolled glue dots to  position the HAPPY over it's negative space.

The image piece was positioned with fun foam for dded dimension.

and...

wha-la!

This is what I wound up with!

I love the look of this card...

It's bright...and colorful...and the white background adds to the CAS factor!
I am also happy with the print that I chose...

which came from a large generic 12x12 paper pad. 

My card stash is always in need of birthday cards...

I'm happy to add two of this CAS eclipse card to my stash.

This Paper Smooches stamp set has a larger image...

Similar to the image that I used for today's cards.

I've got a few of them stamped out...

Colored...

and waiting to become cards.

I'll be sure to share them here when they're complete!

Thanks for visiting today... 

Wishing you a wonderful Wednesday!
