I always find it hard to do CAS cards, but always in awe of others when they do them. I know your friend will love this. I have this stamp and I don't think I have ever used it. Your always an inspiration, thanks for sharing.

Your cards always bring such love and loveliness to my soul - thank you for sharing your artwork. I especially like the softer whisper of an image behind your other focal image - great idea to stamp the main image in different colors to achieve different dimensions. Thanks for the tip. I want to learn to make simpler cards, too.

And yes, it does look like vellum was used. I love the idea of linen copy paper as well. The SU font used for the sentiment is perfect with the shadowed image too.
