The truth is out, I love these CAS-ual Fridays Stamps. I hope you enjoyed five days of inspiration featuring the inaugural sets from CAS-ual Fridays Stamps. Today is the last day for sneaks, and the feature is Truth Is, a beautiful set that includes a large striking image and absolutely amazing sentiments.
The base for my card today started out with inked orange watercolor paper. I sprayed some pearl mist and water for a cool effect, waited for it to dry and then stamped the flowers and sentiment. To get the blue on top of the orange, I colored in the blank areas of the flower in with gel pen and then covered that with an alcohol based marker. As you can see, I used the CAS-ual Fridays colors again, going as bright and bold today as the colors were soft and gentle yesterday!
I'm sure you already know, but as a reminder...CAS-ual Fridays Stamps are the finest quality, photopolymer stamps made in the USA. They stamp like a dream!

I'd like to thank Michele again for the opportunity to showcase her designs and the grand welcome back as a Girl Friday for the CAS-ual Fridays Challenge. I love the fact that I was able to help out in just the teeniest way from the beginning, and to see her dream grow is amazing.
