Hi Everyone,. Happy Saturday. I have a very quick post for you tonight,. It's the fabulous Bobby's turn to host our Addicted to Cas Challenge this week and this is her code word: I decided it was time to pull out my old Altenew Spring Daisy set.

I used three stamps from the set and decided it would work :-) I know Puddle Jumping isn't an Olympic sport, but it was one I used to love as a kid and would do... Read more →
Hi Everyone. Hppy Saturday. It's the fabulous Ceal's turn to host ouor Addicted to CAS challenge and she has a theme that most of us can really relate to right now! I also want to thank my Addictd to CAS team for their patience and picking up for me whilst I was unable to card! Considering it was over 90 degrees with 88% humidity when I made this card, it was certainly hot:-) As I am still recovering from hand surgery, CAS is as much as I can manage right now, this was a perfect challenge. I used my Tim... Read more →
