Thanks So Much Michele!


Hello my friends.  Today is my day over at the CAS-ual Fridays blog.  I had so much fun putting this card together with all kinds of CAS-ual Fridays goodies.  It seems like there is a trend to put tags on cards. I may be a little late to the party, but better late than never!
 
To make this card I took used the Stop set to create all the fun borders.  I then die cut the Funky Square Tag Die and added two types of ribbon before adhering it to the card base.  Last but not least, I used Wonderful Words for the sentiment.  I embossed the sentiment using some silver/white glitter embossing powder.
 
Now...enough about making the card...this card is going to Michele who is the super sweet and incredibly talented designer/owner of CAS-ual Fridays stamps.  When I first was asked by Michele to be on the CAS-ual Fridays Challenge blog I was beyond astounded that she would choose me. Then, when she started her own company and asked me to design with her stamps I was even more shocked.  I've had so much fun designing for Michele.  I will certainly miss being on this team, but the time has come for me to step down.  I'll miss working with you Michele...and thank you so much for sharing your amazing talents with me!
 
PS The next three days I'll be sharing the sneak peeks for the new CAS-ual Fridays release...this will be my last release with CAS-ual Fridays.

Ooh, I really like this non-tag design! Non-tag in as much as it has the centre cut out and you can still see the background - love it :) really like these colours too, just darling :)

We'll all miss seeing your designs over at CAS-ual Fridays, but understand about life's constraints. This card is amazing. Love the lilac and pink, and I think that the little ribbons "make" this. Love it. Bev

Love that open tag - such a cool idea! And I'm going to miss seeing your CF creations. I bought some in November largely based on your inspiration. :)
