CAS Birthday

Hello ...
Did you have a good weekend?
I have been following the weather reports and seeing the snowfall on the east coast of the USA ... My, what a lot of snow you've had ... I do hope you are all safe and warm ... We are expecting some bad weather conditions too ... Right now it's very cold ... snow is on the way ... I am hoping that I will be able to travel to Lincoln next weekend ... we'll just have to see

Tomorrow is my husbands birthday ... He also has an appointment at the eye hospital so we will no doubt be there for hours ... Still, I am taking him to dinner in the evening so that should make up for it ...
I made 2 cards for him ... one from me and one from my son ... I can only show you one as the other is part of an upcoming DT project ... This is just a clean and simple card


This is a new stamp from PTI but I used different cardstock and it's not as clear as I would have hoped
neither are my photos ... 


I'm not sure that the scoring even shows up ...


I have no idea where the paper is from ... It was just a 6x6 piece I've had for ages and double sided which was great for this ...
I really like the CAS look ... though I sometimes find it more difficult ... I'm always tempted to add more

I hope you enjoy the rest of your day ... I'll be back tomorrow - I'm hosting the new challenge at City Crafter this week ...

Keep safe

YAY! you worked some banners in there Ros. LOL I think it looks wonderful. I like how you put the sentiment across the banner pieces and the dimension you added to the star looks fantastic! Hugs and happy birthday to your hubby!

What a fabulous masculine card, Ros. I am sure he will LOVE it. Sorry to hear he has to spend his birthday at the Dr., it sounds like your dinner will make up for it though. :)
