' ' ' 'Crafty Endeavours: In the spotlight

In the spotlight

Sadly the Spotlight is not for me but for the Time Out Challenges who are turning 3 this month and Uniko Studio who celebrate their 5th Anniversary. Congratulations to both!

Before being underwhelmed by my CAS card, I want you to know that it took me the best part of a day to come up with this design, having consigned a few tries to the bin!



I stamped in black 2 of the borders in black ink and one of the circle in blue (Kaleidacolor) from the Background Builders: Round In Circles set (Uniko Studio).
I added the "Anniversary" (my own stamp) and added the "5" and "th" die-cuts (both dies from Die'sire).

Nothing much to it... but that's CAS for you. "Clean" it might be but "Simple" to make it isn't!
Also entering the Fashionable Stamping, Craft Stamper TIMI and Stamplorations CAS challenges.

  5. Sometimes those which may look simple and CAS are those that give us the most trouble Christine, but if one looks carefully at your design it's is obvious it has been carefully considered and really works beautifully.

    It's is perfect for this months theme and I am so pleased you shared it with us at Fashionable Stamping Challenges, thank you.
