CAS Ombre

Hi there from the early hours.

I couldn't sleep so I thought I'd get some cards made and some challenges played.  This card is for Addicted to Cas with code word Ombre.   I tried several other cards and all were too busy...were is my CAS mojo...it probably went to sleep hours ago.



I die cut  a heart, then inked it up with distress inks overlapping them for a good blend. A simple sentiment was added to a vellum strip, the white space was too white, so I ran it through with a quilting cover plate. A bit of texture was needed.

Thanks so much for coming by.
