Hi everyone ... I hope you are all well
... This time next week I will be sitting by a pool on the island of Majorca ... and I have lots to do before then but I took a little time out to make a CAS card for this weeks' challenge at WaltzingMouse based on this sketch
This card is for a friend ...
I say simple ... but it took ages to stitch those little hearts ... and a few goes too!
I drew two lines behind the hearts and stitched across the lines just to give a little definition ...
I love CAS as much as I love vintage and shabby ... and in most cases .. it takes me just as long to make
Which do you prefer? ... I have also been playing with my new Tim Holtz distress stains ... I'll post a card tomorrow of my first attempt ...
Have a lovely day ...
till soon

Adoro ver suas costuras! Como ficam tão perfeitas?! Os corações com as rosinhas estão um amor!!! Bom dia querida amiga!!!
Ohhhh! Ros this is SUCH a lovely card! That stitching is perfection! Let me tell you, it would take me WAY more than "a few goes" to get it right! I love the texty hearts and the beautiful pink rosebuds and bow! Awesome job with this week's WMSC!
I agree Ros, for me CAS is also very difficult as I tend to overload my cards.
You created it beautifully! I love stitches!

Wow wow wow.... this is totally cool! I love it!!!
Vacation... ahh... so exciting!!!! Have fun!!!!
Love your card, Ros! You are so right about how long it takes to make both cards. I like to make all kinds, depends on my mood and what I am using. I am envious of your trip, but know it is well deserved. Have a fun day!
Such wonderfully tender hearts Ros, they really shape your card! Have a lovely time on the beautiful Spanish Island!!
What a wonderful idea, Ros. This is so pretty and chic... seemingly simple, but so much to offer. I love this!
this just screams thst it was made from the heart
I love the simplicity on this card ...hugs...xoxo
*sigh*
that sounds like a wonderful holiday to me.. wanna take me with you? lol
beautiful card. love how elegant it is. very pretty!
Ros, this beautiful card is STUNNING! I love the perfect stitching! Your hearts, bow and flowers are devine! Looks perfect on white!
I too love CAS, shabby and vintage design, but I think I prefer shabby and CAS.
Can't wait to see what you create with TH stains!
I adore this card,it looks stunning. I think sometimes a CAS card looks just as gorgeous as a vintage style as in this case. I really would love to scraplift this card if you didn't mind. I look forward to seeing what you've done with the inks,thanks for the link.xxx
This is so beautiful, I love the stitched panels.
I fell off my chair and now I am sitting again. My back hurts and my butt too :) ( forgive me my language)
No just kidding but you did a fabulous job and I am in awe of your take on the challenge/ Brilliant and beautiful!
