Casing the CAS (once more)
Posted: March 31, 2011 Filed under: CAS, Garden silhouettes 12 Comments
I delved into the CAS favorites thread at Splitcoast again for inspiration before making this card. I came across this lovely sponged panel card and wanted to create something just like it. I prefer Andrea’s beautiful scene with grasses to my silhouetted blossoms but I enjoyed creating something with a sponged panel over a sponged panel; most of my sponged cards lately have been one layer.
I masked the card base to create the horizontal panel, which I embossed in black then sponged in pretty in pink, almost amethyst and going gray. I then created a vertical image panel which I matted in black and popped up on the card base.
Supplies:
Stamps: Garden Silhouettes (SU), Taglines (Flourishes)
Inks: Versamark, Pretty in Pink, Almost Amethyst, Going Grey
Cardstock: Flourishes Classic White, Basic Black
Also: Black e.p.

Beautiful card! I think it’s just as lovely as the one you cased.
This is just stunningly beautiful. I prefer yours because it’s so dramatic.
Beautiful Heather it looks as if it’s lit from behind! Your colouring is amazing as usual

Very pretty…and thanks for the link to the other one too…pretty!
Oh boy, Heather, what a beauty! Who would ever think a black spray of flowers could be so lovely. The black goes so well with your sponged colors, too, and the whole effect is very striking. I DO like Andrea’s grass card…..but I like yours better! Beautiful!
WOW. You picked the perfect colours to back these silhouetted blossoms. This is gorgeous!
There’s something rather tropical sunset about this beautiful card. I love a one-layer card but it’s nice to branch out sometimes!
I think your card is just gorgeous and you have inspired me to give the CAS and one layer cards a try, may have to CASE this one 🙂 Love the image and the colors. TFS.
Gorgeous, Heather! What pretty and clean layering!
gorgeous
Love this, it is so simple yet stunningly dramatic too. TFS
Fabulous colour and wonderful contrast with the black flowers:0) xxx
