CAS for ATS&M#79

Hi -thanks for popping in to visit me today! Time for another weekly challenge at Addicted to Stamps and More! (ATS&M).  Our wonderful sponsor again this week is...


We are also pleased to have another Guest Designer with us for the next two weeks - Karen M who has been inducted into our Wall of Fame for being a regular contestant of the ATS&M Challenge. Welcome Karen!
 
I have made a card for the ATS&M Challenge #79 - CAS using an image and sentiment from Deedee's Digis called "Make a Joyful Noise".  
Really quite tickled with how it turned out. Hope you like it too!

 
I fussy cut around the image and used an extra negative die piece that I've had laying on my desk 4-ever - really, I do mean forEVER.  Although I've not made any official New Year's resolutions this year, I am making a conscientious effort to use up some of those bits and piece that I keep on my craft desks.  The overall card size is a big larger than normal - 4 1/2 by 6 1/2, so I made my own envelope to go with it using my envelope punch from Stampin Up! Not only does it help you make envelopes in a snap - it's also a great way to use up some of your paper stash (admit it - we all have some of that :o) ).

So what do you think about this color combo?  I really like it!  It was kind of an unexpected surprise when I put it together.  If you like this digi - you should go check out sponsor's website (details on the ATS&M challenge site).  You have the chance to win 3 free sets of your choice if you are chosen as the TOP Addict for the CAS challenge. How nice is that?

The rest of my lovely teamies have also made some amazing creations to share with and inspire you.  I hope you will go visit them and leave a little love while your there.  Til next time...hugs and happy crafting! D

    Love the sentiment on your card and the dog singing is so cute! I like the use of the negative space. Making the envelope too is a great way to use of paper ;))
