ATSM #79 - Addicted to CAS

We have a wonderful new challenge for you this week at Addicted to stamps and more... Addicted to CAS. We all know what clean and simple is right? It's all about the design, not the technique,  not the tools, not the embellishments. It's all about the design Uncluttered, lots of white or open space and one main focal point. I would also like to welcome our lovely and talented Guest Designer Karen of Made by Meadie, I am sure you will love what she created :) and here's my card...
To make this card, I stamped the Jar stamp (from Recollections stamp set), fuzzy cut and lightly shaded it with my metallic grey color pencil. I made a small slit at the lower end of the lid and on the top to allow the arrow to pass through. I stuck the heart and the arrow (from Lil' Inkers - few die cuts sent by my sweet friend) on the jar, then hand drew the tiny hearts using a sharpie marker. I tied the white embroidery thread bought from Walmart along with the sweet tag stamped from the same set. Then I scored some lines at the base (yeah!! my favorite thing to do... lol) and stamped the sentiment (from paper Sweeties) I then stuck this jar using some foam dots.

There is a lot more lovely inspiration from the DT, Please visit our challenge blog here. The winner will receive a wonderful prize from our sponsor this week Deedee's Digis. Take a peek at their store here

I am excited to see what you will come up with ....

I would like to submit this card to the following challenges -
1. Inspired by #103
2. CAS on Sunday #25 - Lovely Dovey
3. House of Cards January Challenge #2 - Sketch + CAS
4. The Friday Mashup #143 - Heart n Arrow

  

Thank you so much for visiting my blog and leaving me a comment :)

    To me, this is the 'Perfect CAS Card', Deepti! I love how you placed your heart and arrow through the lid on the jar, and your hand drawn hearts are amazing! Another fabulous design idea to add score lines, too...they add so much dimension without the 'bulk' ~ Beautiful Valentine card!
