some CAS cards ...

I just got back from San Francisco visiting my sister and her family including my adorable little nephew ... what a wonderful trip!

Here are some cards I made just before I left ...

I was inspired by Kristina Werner and kept them super simple just like hers.  My cards are loosely based on this card of hers.

I must confess that this first one I had to improvise after getting ink on the panel ... I hate that!!  You can still see a bit of the smudging ....

The rest are all basically the same with different sentiments ...

 I kept the colours neutral so the images could shine ...

These are some other CAS ones I also put together.  I got this gorgeous little rubber stamp from a cool store in Vancouver with the image of a camera and I was just itching to use it:

 The stamp handle is really cool - it looks just like a camera itself!!  Here's a close up:

 Isn't it cute?!

 I used Tide Pool ink from Hero Arts' mid tone line:

 And the two cards together:

I kinda like the CAS style of these ... what do you think?  Are CAS cards your style?
