I'm entering this card into CAS-usal Friday's dies/punches challenge, but not too sure if you can really count it as CAS... what do you think?
There aren't many embellishments, but there's not a lot of negative space either! I had my idea for this card in the middle of the night so as soon as I could, I got into my craft room to create it this morning. I used some Hero Arts watercolour paper and Distress inks to make my background rainbow. The adorable sentiment is from Inkadinkado ~ a set called "Friendly Advise". I stamped it in black ink and clear embossed. I finished with a rolled rose (my die cut for the challenge)
As it is an encouragement card, I have added this to the Paper Crafts 2012 Gallery Idol open auditions and Simon Says Stamp ~ CAS cards.
Are you enjoying your weekend. After a busy day cleaning, including the insides of the windows, I did get some time to craft. Made my card for Hero Arts Spring Exchange and I also got to look at days 1-4 of A Cut Above on-line class. You can purchase just the Part 1 or just Part 2 or the combined package. Part 1 suited me so got it... go here to purchase. Well worth it! As I don't have an electronic cutter, it was great to just be able to purchase the part that related to manual machines. Thanks On-line classes for doing this. Now off to have some lunch before finishing the course and trying out some of the ideas.

Terrific card whether or not it's CAS!
I love this card and it looks CAS to me! Especially like that sentiment.
I haven't had any time this week to make cards; hope I can do some today and tomorrow for these same challenges.
it is lovely, maybe not very CAS (that's open to interpretation), but its great - love your use of inks.
