Hugs and kisses

I decided to do the SCS CAS challenge for this week--#51. The challenge is to use designer paper on your CAS card. OK, I can do that :)

I was totally inspired by this ribbon. Sorta non-traditional but that's why I like it, LOL! I stamped the hearts from Background Basics: Hearts on Baja Breeze with Pure Poppy ink and added the ribbon. For my flower (CASEd from Dawn's post here), I used my Peony Nestabilities and cut three sizes--one with Pure Poppy Bitty Box Basics, one from Baja Breeze DSP, and for the top layer, I stamped another image from Background Basics: Hearts on Vintage Cream with Pure Poppy. I knew I had one more heart shaped button in my Pure Poppy Vintage Button jar, so I tied that on with Rustic Twine. The sentiment is from Simple Valentine. I sponged the edges of the flower layers and the Baja Breeze layer with Vintage Touch ink.

Thanks for stopping by today!! Tomorrow's Color Throwdown day--be sure to stop back by to see what we've got for you!
