berry best wishes Birthday Card

Created this Clean and Simple (CAS)
berry best wishes Birthday Card using
opposite colors red & green, a couple 
fruit stamps and paper lace.

Chose lime green so it would not look
because it is a fav color of my daughter
so this may be one of her birthday cards 
this yr for her 21st birthday. Wow, hard to
believe she will be 21 the end of Dec this yr.

punch. Used foam adhesives to pop up
some of the fruit & the sentiment.

CAS Chinese New Year 2012 Year of the Dragon Card

Created this Clean & Simple (CAS)
Chinese New Year 2012 Year of the
Dragon Card using a rubber stamp I
bought today at Michaels. Phoned
Michaels to ask if they had a Dragon
rubber stamp. 1st Michaels store did
not have but 2nd store here did and I
asked them hold giving them my name.
Glad that I asked them to hold because
it was the last one. regular price was
$5.99. Used a 50% JoAnns coupon since
they honor competitor coupons.

Piano Music Happy Birthday Card

Created this Clean & Simple (CAS)
Piano Music Happy Birthday Card in
monochromatic colors of black &
white.

Was inspired by the Piano Card that
Laurie Wilson of Soapboxcreations blog
a Cas-ual Fridays DT created.

Used a Tim Holtz music embossing
folder and a Piano rubber stamp. Cut
out the Piano Keys stamped image.
Used Enamel accents on the Piano
Keys stamped piece to give the black
keys dimension.

Used foam adhesives on the cut out of
the stamped Piano Keys for a 3D look.

Piano Keys stamping piece that is not

wonderful Elton John concert:
