Happy Friday! I can't believe we're starting the month of June! Time has been flying by, and I'd give anything for a few more hours in each day. I'm several days behind on my blog reader and leaving comments, but I hope have a chance to catch up later this weekend.
For now, I have a card to share for a new CAS-ual Fridays challenge, which also happens to be our monthly Guest Designer search!
This week we're challenging you to "put a bling on it"! We want to see your clean and simple designs with rhinestones, glitter, etc. Sound like fun?
Our sponsor for this challenge is Simon Says Stamp, so be sure to check out the CAS-ual Fridays blog to find out more about this week's prize.
One reason why I'm so busy this week is that my daughter's dance recital is Saturday night, so the week has been full of last minute errands and rehearsals. So when I heard "bling", I thought of my girl's sparkly tap costume and immediately thought of making her a card for her big weekend.
I started with some fabulous glittered cardstock that I've had forever and cut a piece for the card front. Using my Silhouette, I cut the word "star" from a piece of white cardstock, then stamped the rest of the sentiment above it. I debossed a large star over the sentiment using a star die and an embossing mat.
Cardstock: American Crafts (Ocean glittered), Papertrey Ink (White, True Black)
Stamp: Papertrey Ink (Star Prints)
Ink: Memento (Tuxedo Black)
Tools: Silhouette Cameo, Papertrey Ink (star die)
I hope you'll play along with the challenge this week for your chance to be our next Guest Designer!
Thanks for stopping by tonight! Have a great weekend!

The sparkly paper is gorgeous Christina! Such a sweet card for your daughter. I hope that the recital goes well, there is always so much preparation for the big show. This was the first year in 10 years that my daughter didn't do dance. Have so much fun.
