CAS-ual Fridays: Square Cards Challenge


Ever wonder how the winners are chosen for CAS-ual Fridays? Check out this post from Michele for more details!  I have to say I love clicking through all the entries each week.  There is so much fabulous inspiration.  So if you're a CAS lover :), the galleries every week are gorgeous and a great place for ideas on how to stretch your creativity. 

Now...onto this week's sponsor.  Stampotique Originals.  They have a wonderful variety of stamps at Stampotique.  Click on over and take a look!
Our challenge this week is to make a square card.  I've stayed away from the hexagon craze :), but couldn't resist when we were able to choose stamps from Stampotique. Isn't this distressed hexagon gorgeous?  Love the dreamy feel of the colors to coordinate with the sentiment!

Come on over to CAS-ual Fridays and plan along!  We'd love to be inspired by you.
