LOVE

The following card is a sweet CAS anniversary card that I made! I used my Cricut for the word love and used punches for the hearts. It is hard to see in the picture below, but the word LOVE on the front is adhered with pop dots to make it a little 3-D.

CAS card

Good day everyone! I had some fun playing around with a CAS card for a couple of challenges this afternoon. First of all, I haven't had the chance to try my big kick yet with some chipboard and think I have a new addiction - LOL! So fun it is! And easy too! Second, I got a chance to play around with a couple of my favourite CTMH stamp sets. I really do love the My Acrylix stamps. I am still sort of new to the CAS style, so let me know what you think.
