CAS Friday?

For today, it is a CAS Friday.  I really should be getting ready to start my day, but I couldn't help but sit down to post this one!  I made this for Susan's One Layer Wednesday challenge to create on OLC with unexpected colors.  It's also a card that meets the Stamp 2 Spend challenge to create a Valentine's Day card in non-traditional colors.  I don't think that Teal, Celery and Gray are the colors you would normally expect to find on a Valentine's Day card, but here they are.  I really like how it turned out.  I like the whimsy of the tilted hearts and that it left me a constant open space for my rhinestones.  And....I love that I can personalize my rhinestone color with my Sharpie.  That makes me super happy!

Have a fabulous day!

Details - Stamps: Happy Hearts, Teeny Tiny Wishes; Paper: Whisper White; Ink: Taken With Teal, Going Gray, Certainly Celery; Accessories: M's self adhesive rhinestones, teal sharpie, celery sharpie.

Hi, I like the card you made - the color combination is good and the card is simple but eye catching.

They might not be usual Valentine colors but you made them work. Love the rhinestones too.
