Smile with CAS-ual Fridays Stamps

Hello!  Today I am sharing a card here and on the CAS-ual Fridays' Blog, woot woot!



To be honest I really wasn't sure where I was going with this card when I first started.  I knew I wanted to color something in and I knew I wanted to play with the leaf image from the Pretty Posies Stamp set, so I just went from there.  I stamped the leaf images in two lines on a white panel and began coloring them in a mix of purples, oranges, greens and yellows.  Next, I went through and trimmed just one of the edges of the leaves for both lines and just played around with where I wanted to place them on my cardbase.  Once I moved one to the top and one to the bottom of the card it hit me as perfect!  I then die cut my Smile, from the Smiling Fri-dies set, several times, once in each of the colors I had used on the leaf images.  I then layered them all up adhering them slightly to the right side so all of the colors would show.  My final touch was playing with the dot for the "i" and I decided to have them floating up like confetti, because that is what made me smile :).

Thanks so much for taking the time to visit me today! And if you need to pick up some goodies from CAS-ual Fridays for yourself I would be tickled if you used my discount code below!

Happy Crafting!
