CAS Challenge Baby Card


The CAS challenge on Splitcoast this week is to add sparkle. I immediately knew that I wanted to use the stamp that I just got by Rubber Moon. It's called Ten Small Starflowers. The sentiment is by SU!, Hugs and Wishes, I think.

The stars are covered in yellow stickles, and I colored outside the lines with Copics for a little "glow". I sponged some green for grass and added green gingham paper by A Muse.

I love the green and yellow, it's such a fresh combo, but I felt like it needed a hit of color, so I added the turquoise ribbon. On the top and bottom of the main panel, I added super thin strips of white textured cardstock, just to make it look a little more finished.

By the way, I tried it with pink ribbon and it looked great, too! I may use the same design the next time I need a baby girl card.

Thanks for looking!
