Hello Stamping Friends! The card I want to share with you today is more on the simpler side, well, let's say it's clearly CAS. :-D I colored this sweet Whimsy - Time for Tea Designs image, called 'Short Stroll' , in the 'no-lines' technique using my Copics. This is a first for me with 'no-lines' so please bear with me on the coloring...I still need lots of practice with this technique! To decorate the card I only added some ribbon and buttons. The DP is from Fancy Pants's 'The Good Life' collection.   I've added the sentiment right next to the image. It's from Whimsy's SC Designs collection 'Girl Talk' .  I like to enter the following challenges: Crafty Girls Challenge - Anything Goes  - until 5/28 DL.Art Challenge - Anything Feminine - until 5/20 Penny Black and more - Anything Goes - until 5/28 Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful rest of the week!
