Hard to believe how quickly the long weekend passed; soooo much fun with my family visiting. I had some major *sads* when they left yesterday, but Friday will be here soon enough and we'll be heading their direction. Yayyyy....
Today, my marvelous DT and I invite you to play alongside us at Addicted to Stamps and More Challenge #195, with this photo as inspiration:
Treat-table temptation! Popcorn, cupcakes, beverages, cake....yum-fest galore!
My card is ultra CAS...mainly because 'someone' left things too late to get a really cool card done! Time management lessons required! Still, after nearly not posting, I decided I would, nudged along by my husband, who thinks the big ol' Memory Box candles with their Stickles flames are rather cool...
I'm so glad you spent time with me today; your visit brings me immense joy!

Love this one Carol, regardless of leaving it too late or not this is a perfect CAS card!
Hey, isn't this the definition of CAS?? So you can get it done in good time? What a testament to that idea! And you used some cool dies and stencils to boot? I adore how you colored those candles! The flames look amazing. Don't even think you need a finicky white pen! And the background of stars just shows everything off! Well done, my friend! :) Hugs!! And yay for being able to see your sweeties again so soon.
Love your take of the colors -- a soft background makes the candles pop or light up ;)
So glad to hear you had a great time with your family and made some great memories...that's always how I feel when visiting with my kids! :) I think this is such a fun photo to take inspiration from and you've done a fabulous job with it!! Love the light star stenciled in the background!! SO FUN!! :) HUGS
At least you got the post done unlike me, lost a day somewhere!
This card just goes to show that necessity is the mother of invention Carol, such a great CAS card. :)
This is a great card! I love those candles.
Andy's right, Carol ... it is a rather cool card ... fun too ... and so deliciously CAS! Hugs, Anita :)

I think your husband is correct, Carol. Those candles look great, especially over that blue star background.
Love those candles! Those white pens can be a real pain....my favorite is actually the white Sharpie
I really love this CAS design, Carol! Your candles are fabulous, and your soft stenciling in the background really makes them pop!
So happy you had such a great visit with family...Safe driving, and I hope you have a really fun weekend ~ Hugs, Barb
Love your card, and how the candles pop against the stenciled background :) I got a chuckle out of your post, because too many times, I've been running around trying to get a card done on time, and then not been 100% pleased in the end - and my cheering section steps in :) Gotta love it!
