CAS Aaack!

Okay, the awesome and totally crazy Kim is our hostess this week and her challenge is CAS. Not my strong point. I love some of the CAS cards I see but I am always wanting to add just enough that it wouldn't be considered CAS, unless you compare it to some others I guess!

This is Lulu from the Springtime Lulu set. I am so ready for spring and being able to plant some flowers so this cutie called my name.

I layered my dp with some mint green cardstock, stamped my sentiment in the corner and slapped on a flower tada! Oh, I did add some stickles around the edges of the image, I don't believe in a card without some stickles, against the rules I believe. Okay, this should be a quick card for everyone so let's see whatcha got!

    Somehow I can see you dressed just like this putting in your spring flowers. It is a great CAS card! Love the image and the way you colored her.

    What an adorable image Amanda. Love the stripes on the apron. I think the Stickles push the CAS button! Love it!

    She is too cute! Gosh I love her little overalls...If it were me making this card they would be paper pieced, but knowing your coloring skills, I think you may have designed them yourself :) LOVE!

    Hello dear Amanda, I wanted to thank you so much for your encouraging words and compliments you left me on my blog. It was so nice to read and made me feel so much better. Thank you again from the bottom of my heart.
    Your new card is absolutely beautiful! I love how you colored the little girl in and the design papers match wonderful.

    hugs and hope you have a great week.
    Claudia

    Know exactly what you mean about the CAS dilema! Although, I think I can end up with (note I didn't say pull off lol!) CAS more than you can! This is very cute though - CAS or not!
