Seize the Birthday - CAS

Hello and welcome! It's time for another guest appearance at Seize the Birthday, where this fortnight's optional theme is Clean and Simple.


I was lucky enough to win Uniko's entire August release and this bold sentiment (BIG & BOLD - Hello) seemed like the perfect stamp to ink up with some of my new Catherine Pooler inks (Tiara, Tiki Torch, Tutti Frutti) that arrived from Guernsey a few days ago. The green (Lime Rickey) from the Party ink collection was a bit too bold for my colour combo, so I used Garden Party instead. The birthday sentiment is made up of four different stamps from the Young at Heart set by CAS-ual Fridays. I picked up the stamps with my long and narrow grid block and stamped the sentiment in Versafine Onyx black. After trimming down my panel, I used foam tape to adhere it to my card base.

Please do pop over to the challenge blog to see what the talented ladies of the design team have created to inspire you. And remember that the Toppings are always optional, so if CAS is not your thing, simply link up any birthday-themed card.

    Beautiful card Marianne. Love the pretty inks for the hello sentiment and the slanted sentiment with it.

    Het lijkt eenvoudig, maar tevens heel doordacht met de verschillende contrasterende elementen, die rust en stijl/elegantie laten zien.
    En de gekozen kleuren versterken dit effect. Heel erg mooi.
    Schoonschrijven nieuwe stijl: een 10 met een griffel 🖌📖 ,Marianne.

    This is a great and colorful happy card. That bold stamp set did come just in time and I bet you have more plans for it.
