CAS - I appreciate you!

Hi everyone! Next Wednesday is Administrative Professionals Day. Here's the CAS card I made for my wonderful Admin Assistant - who is totally awesome!

Stamps are from Papertrey Ink called Flower fusion #2. I used chalk inks from Studio G and the hot pink ink just happened to match the Hibiscus Burst cardstock from PTI. Lucky! I cut out and embossed the panel using a square nestability and then popped it up using foam tape.

The embossing is done using the square lattice folder made by sizzix for SU. This card actually measures 4.5 x 4.5 square. I added a black self adhesive pearl from Kaisercraft to the center of the flower for some dimension.


Here's a peek at the finished inside of the card. I used a dauber to ink up the outside of the label and a black glaze gel pen to put dots on the centers of the flowers to match the one on the front.

Think she'll like this? Thanks for stopping by!

Laurie she is just going to love this. So sweet of you to think of her. I am an Admin and they don't even acknowledge the day or wish me a Happy Secretary's Day. Your pink blossom is very pretty.
