CAS-ual Fridays- cfc1

Hello there. I hope you all are doing well. I haven't posted in while simply because life started happening. There was some good to come out of it though. My hubby is home after a year long deployment!
But that also means time to move again.

Enough about me, onto it then.

I'm so excited for this challenge, it seems as though I've been waiting forever. I'm glad to be able to participate in this first challenge with CAS-ual Fridays. This weeks challenge is all about the text. Simply submit a project using text.

I got right to it. Here's what I came up with. I'm not great at CAS, but I consider myself quite the wordsmith so this challenge really speaks to me.

I hope you're inspired to try this on for size, if not, just simply do something you love.

Till next time,
Cheers.

    Your card is scrumptious! I love the opposite colored polka dotted leaves and your texted leaves in the middle is perfection. Awesome CAS card and we're delighted to have you play with us at CAS-ual Fridays!

    We feel like we've been waiting forever, too!! LOL And what do you mean you don't consider yourself a CAS designer?!! This project says otherwise!! You've nailed this challenge and the CAS vision, and I adore what you did with this!! Thanks so much for playing with us in the very first CAS-ual Fridays Challenge!! Looking forward to seeing more of your beautiful work!!

    This is wonderful! I love the way you've used three different patterns on your leaves rather than all the same.
