Fruitastic!

Trying to squeak in an entry for the Casology Challenge:  Fruit!



*Edited*:  Darn!  Had some problems uploading my pic to my computer so I wasn't able to link this blog post to the challenge in time :( 

Such a simple card really but it took FOREVER for me to finish it!  The heart strawberry and sentiment are older Papertrey ink images.  Decided I needed to ground them with something so I masked the strawberry and overstamped the woodgrain circle from Hero Arts My Happy set in HA soft sand shadow ink.  THEN I thought I needed to offset the woodgrain circle with something so on went the twine from Creative Impressions.  STILL felt too plain to me so out came the corner rounder and a few HA clear gems.  Well, you get the picture:)

There's always next week's challenge.........

Hi Robin--
Terrific CAS card! The woodgrain circle was perfect & the twine at the top ties it all together. Great job!

Dang, Robin! Tech issues are no fun. But this great CAS card sure is....love the masking and the wood grain is great with the berry. Berry funny story, but sorry you missed the deadline.

Oh.. Robin,I feel your frustration that you didn't get it uploaded in time for the challenge! Well, thanks for posting and sharing this fruitful card with us. I think you've got the new CAS style in you--just have to release, discover and express it now!
