HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY

Hello.

I'm sharing a quick CAS card today, for the CASology Challenge.

The theme is 'envelope' so I scoured my stash for an envelope stamp,
and was happy to find one in my favourite bear set.

I used a craft knife to cut a little strip into my bear,
so that I could push the envelope into it and it would look like he was holding it.

CAKE IS THE ANSWER

Hello.
Can you believe that Less is More is 10 years old this month? 
I can remember when it started and how scary it was to make a clean and simple card :-)

The theme this fortnight is 'chocolate', so I cooked up this chocolate/raspberry cake for them.

With CAS cards I'm always fighting the urge to just add a little more - 
this time it was sequins - and I managed to stop myself  :-)

Just for fun I searched my blog for Less is More,
and found  THIS POST
My card for their very first challenge back in Feb 2011  :-)
It did make me cringe! I think my colouring and placement skills have

come on a bit since then!

SHAKER HEART

Hello.
I went a bit OTT with this card.
I think I was dazzled by the sequins :-)

The little striped die really lends itself to be used for a shaker card, and i filled it with pretty sequins.
This is for my mum, who has Alzheimer's, so I know she will love the bright colours and the shaker element.

I was inspired by the hearts, and the little flowers and leaves.
