Let's go fly a kite!
A favorite phrase and it's perfect for a CAS Valentine theme.
I've been trying to get a better photo to show the real brightness of this card. Sorry this looks washed out - its not IRL, but it's a gray day here.
I arranged some strips of patterned paper along the card top, and a thin stripe of red as a backdrop for the clouds. I die cut them and popped them on two and three layers of foam.
I was inspired by the sketch and fabulous DT inspiration at CAS(E) this sketch. CAS cards aren't coming easily to me. It took WAY too long to make this one! I'll spare you the details, but it has something to do with losing the clear stamp.... right on my work table. And spending an hour looking for it.
Hope you have a terrific weeknd! Thanks for all the wonderful support and comments I've received this week, you are the BEST!
Hugs~
Be yourself.
Find delight in your craft.
Make something beautiful!

All papers are from the SSS febraury card kit.
I love this (and you!) so much! I was just thinking last night that I need to put together an inspiration box so I can make some Valentine cards with Melissa and Chelsea!
