CAS-ual Fridays (love letters)


Good morning friends. I'm popping in today with a quick card I whipped up for the CAS-ual Fridays challenge this week...to use letters of some form (stickers, alpha stamps, chipboard, dies, punches) on your project.


I chose to use my Silhouette to cut out this sweet sentiment as my focal point. After adhering tiny slivers of foam tape behind the letters to raise it off the background, I angled the mat to add some contrast along with that layered heart. Three colors of cardstock, and some glue. No stamps, no ink:)

We are sponsored by Ellen Hutson and she is offering the winner of this week's challenge a $25 gift certificate!

Be sure to join us at CAS-ual Fridays for the fun with your clean and simple project using letters!
Thanks for stopping by,
XOXO

 (and don't forget that tomorrow is Groundhog's Day here in the US! One of my favorite days to celebrate:)

I might just be inspired enough by this to dust off my Silhouette and try to do something similar. I love how dramatic it is - gorgeous!
