1. There is no deadline to play along with the CAS challenges.
2. Take all the time you need to finish and upload your card.
3. Upload your card to your gallery and link back to this thread so we all can see your project.
4. Please remember to put in the correct keyword CAS469 when uploading your image, a copy/paste of the keyword is recommended to avoid typos.
5. Please feel free to combine the CAS challenges with any other challenge!
The challenges are to provide inspiration and to get us stamping, so have fun and follow your heART. We can't wait to see what you create!
And the FAV from last week's gallery is THIS card by frenziedstamper !

Awesome challenge. Used up the BG from my WTUI challenge this week so I could continue my crafty goal to use stuff up.

Got this cool blossoms 2 step stamp set- stamped some flowers in grey and lightly colored them for my background. Added a chick for my main image and yellow and red paper for pizazz. Here's

In order to "link back to this thread ", do I need more than to list the CAS number? My card does not seem to be in the gallery, maybe I did something wrong.

I see your card in the CAS gallery..sometimes it just takes a minute to sort. And if you're not a Fan Club member, it may take a few minutes for the moderators to approve your upload.

Thanks a bunch for the temptation to play with a background stamp, Dana! It's been too long since I've inked up a good ol' background stamp! Remember when these were practically "necessary" in our stamping world? lol

Take 2: This time I read the challenge carefully and used a background stamp. I was so lucky to receive a stamp order in the mail today and was able to use a brand new stamp! My card:
