Having the honor of being a Guest Designer on the CAS-ual Fridays Blog was definitely the highlight of my 2012 crafting year. What a fun way to ring in the New Year!
After several attempts at creating a card that I was happy with, this is the one I settled on! I was really quite nervous, wanting to make a card that I felt would be good enough to post alongside the amazing cards that the CAS-ual Frdays DT would be posting!
Now, don't waste another minute.....just skip on over and see what the Girl Fridays have created for this very first challenge of 2013! You do know that you will gazing upon some pretty fine eye candy!
Card deets: SU black and CTMH white card stock; sentiment and image stamps - seriously, unknown (garage sale finds - the flower could be Hero Arts); Jet Black Stazon ink
What?! No mention of your BINGO obsession in your bio?! LOL Geri, this is absolutely stunning - the subtle simplicity and the contrast of the black and white makes for an absolutely perfect composition. Just gorgeous! So excited to see you as the Guest Designer at Casual Fridays - no doubt the first of many gigs there, for sure! Hope you had a blessed Christmas and a Happy New Year? Did Santa drop off your Cameo - I sure hope so! XOXO
ReplyDeleteNo surprise, you've done an exemplary job as guest designer for CAS-ual Fridays, Geri! I adore your card. It's the very essence of clean and simple. In its black and white framed sketchiness, it is pure and perfect!!
ReplyDeleteGeri, this is sooo elegantly CAS! I've been looking at all your elements on this card, and will probably go back to it over and over again; I love it. So happy you are GD at CFC. But you well deserve it girlfriend! You are an inspiration. Beautiful, my friend, beautiful. Bev
ReplyDeleteBeautiful CAS card, Geri! Congrats on your GD stint!
ReplyDeleteSimply beautiful! A perfect clean and simple card!
ReplyDeleteWOW! This is a real stunner! And so crisply and perfectly stamped (and matted - it's perfectly even all the way around, which is always a challenge for me, especially with such a narrow mat!) Love the wispiness of the font tying in so well with the stems of the flowers - 2013 is definitely off to a great start for you!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous card, Geri!! Love the way you used the black! Congrats again on being the guest designer this month at CAS-ual Fridays! YOu rock!
ReplyDeleteI've been waiting with baited breath to see what inspirational deliciousness you would create for us as GD ... and oh, so worth the wait, this is just so lovely. The black and white emphasise the delicacy of the flower and sentiment beautifully, and as ever the execution is perfect ... wonderful! Anita :)
