CAS-ual Fridays #2, The Play Date Cafe #81

My first CAS-ual Fridays challenge:


Plus this color challenge from The Play Date Cafe:


Equals this card from me:


I didn't get to join in the very first CAS-ual Fridays challenge, I was in Tennessee for the week.  So, I am excited to play along this week. The stamp set is called 'The Art of Life', it and ink,cardstock, and rhinestones are all Stampin' Up! I just got that embossing die, it is from Spellbinders...took me a little while to figure out how to use it, but I think I got  it :)  The button is American Crafts, and I also used a little Diamond Stickles on the flower.

Thanks for looking!




Artist's Note:
This card earned me this badge from The Play Date Cafe:

Oooo I love how the background looks behind the popped up spellbinders! That little background should win best supporting roll in a card! So beautiful!
