Great Impressions - Tons of Happy Days

 

Hello!   I have a card that I made with one of my new Great Impressions stamps.    This cute elephant struck my fancy as soon as I saw him.  Isn’t he sweet?

I am still trying to become more comfortable with CAS cards.   Look, no DP on this one!   I still can’t bring myself to make a single layer card, but I’m sure I’ll get there on of these days.

 

Have a week filled with “Tons of Happy Days.” Thank you for stopping by!

  • Stamps:  Elephant with Kite (F548) and Tons (C449) from Great Impressions Stamps
  • Ink:  Memento Tuxedo Black ink
  • Papers:  Neenah Classic Crest Solar White CS, Papertrey White CS, Stampin’ Up Real Red CS
  • Embellishments:  May Arts burlap twine, misc. washi tape, Copic markers

A beautiful card Cheryl. I'm really starting to like the CAS style more every day. I think they are more difficult to make but it's nice not having a ton of embellies on your card, huh?
