Almost to Friday Evening


A friend should be one in whose understanding and virtue we can equally confide,
and whose opinion we can value at once for its justness and its sincerity.
~Robert Hall


Aren't Almost to Friday Evenings the best? It is for me, because I get to show you my project for the latest CAS-ual Fridays Challenge! This week, the challenge is to make your sentiment be the star of the show. We are sponsored by the really, really awesome SRM Stickers

Our Logo

I used a long-ish sentiment from SRM's Fancy Sticker Sentiments #55004 Thanks, as well as a border sticker from their We've Got Your Border #57001 Baby Boy sheet. The sticker was mounted to a piece of white card stock, trimmed and attached to some wood patterned paper. A chipboard heart finishes the look.

Tonight also marks a bittersweet moment at CAS-ual Fridays as Julie Ranae retires from her position as a Girl Friday. Thanks for all you did to make CAS-ual Fridays one of the hottest challenges out there, Julie!

Please stop on over to the CAS-ual Fridays Challenge Blog to check out the other projects from the Girl Fridays, read more about the sponsor and prize and reacquaint yourself with the rules, if needed! Can't wait to see what you come up with.
