How Delightful!

Hello Everyone! 
If you're looking for my entries for the Less is More or Addicted to CAS challenges, please go Here

Just a quick post with a card I created for this week’s challenge at CASology. The Cue Card this week is ‘Electric’, so I took out my Lawn Fawn stamp set, "How Delightful" and created this card:




Please excuse the glare on the lamp base...I believe it's from the flash on my camera bouncing off the glossy accents! I wanted this card to be as CAS as possible, so I stamped and fussy cut the lamp, then stamped the sentiment and light rays, added a cute little green star, and mounted everything on to a matching mint background. Very clean. Very simple. Lots of white space :-)

I would also like to link my card up to this week's Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge for the theme 'Anything Goes', and a spotlight on Lawn Fawn, and Virginia's View new challenge for the theme 'Stitching'

 So, that’s my quick post for today...I hope everyone is having a fun and crafty week ~ Thanks so much for stopping by!
 
Barb

Oh my goodness this is darling Barb! I love that little lamp! And I can see that the light's on :) heheh! I wanted to thank you so much for the sweet comment on my blog! I am so thrilled to hear that you gave the ornaments for Easter gifts and that your Mom and Sister liked them :) That's music to my ears! (Hugs)

Oh Barb, this is so fun and CAS. I love how your little "accident" turned out... the glare on the lamp base look so cool, I was wondering how you had done that when I first saw your card :).
