Hi there blog friends ~ Today starts a new challenge at Addicted to CAS ~ Sue N. is our Hostess, and she is challenging everyone to create a card using the Code Word ‘Pattern’. Crafty Milka is our Guest Designer ~
I rarely use patterned paper, although I have mountains of it in my stash, so I thought it would be fun to back these chunky alphas with a checked pattern. I used dark blue ink for the sentiment and added a touch of pink on the heart...and that was it ~
We would love to see how the code word ‘Pattern’ inspires you! If you would like to see inspiration from the Design Team and play along with us, come on over and check out the ATCAS Blog ~
And now, I would like to introduce the newest member of our family...
Gracie Lou - Born on January 7th - 8lbs 1oz
Suffice it to say, Mike and I are over the moon with our new granddaughter :)
Supplies:
Stamps: PTI - Wonderful Words: Love
Dies: MFT - Double the Love
Misc: MFT - Tiny Check Paper Pad, Blueberry Ink; Tim Holtz - Distress Oxide Ink (Picked Raspberry); PTI - Enchanted Evening Cardstock

Beautiful card Barb and a big congrats on your new granddaughter. My little grandie is Grace but gets called Gracie.
I should think the arrival of adorable little Gracie Lou may have influenced your card a little Barb! Love that sentiment, especially combined with the gingham and the little pink heart. Vicky x

Love the gingham use pattern. Congrats on the new Little.
I too have a tonne of patterned paper in my stash and don't use it a lot. Some of it is too pretty to use and sometimes I struggle because I am so much more a clean and simple girl. I love what you did with it!
I love that you used pattern paper on this!! I have SO MUCH and hardly pull it out. I need to use more. I love the gingham and the navy together. Gorgeous design!
Amazing card. Congratulations on your granddaughter. She is absolutely gorgeous.

This card is CAS perfection! The gingham behind the darker clean-cut letters is such a crisp and clean look. And congrats on that adorable wee grand-daughter. So exciting!
Barb, the card is fabulous. I love the gingham and that little pop of pink. However fabulous your card is, this post is completely stolen by Gracie Lou! Congratulations to you all.
hugs

Congratulations! Gracie is so sweet.
Great card and idea to back the letters with the gingham pattern paper. This would.be wonderful for a masculine card.
I don’t use pattern paper very often either and have gotten rid of a lot, YET more keeps piling up in my stash! 🤷🏻♀️
