Hi Everyone
Quick post for you tonight.
AddictedtoCAS and CAS-ual Fridays have a great challenge this week – a color combo for CAS-ual Fridays and a theme at Addicted to CAS. I used both of these challenges to create a birthday card to celebrate my fellow Paper Players team mate, and all round fab person – Nance. Happy Birthday, Nance. I hope you had a fabulous day.
Here's the challenges:

I used Fine Feathers for the pattern element and a PTI set for the sentiment. I used Coastal Cabana for the Peacock feather and Real Red and Midnight Muse for the sentiment. Here's my card
I added just a little bit of bling with a few pearls and rhinestones in the same color as the Peacock feather and like the way the card now has three circular elements: the "eye" of the peacock feather; the divider between the portions of the sentiments and, finally, the pearls themselves. I do think Coastal Cabana is a really pretty color of blue. It reminds me of the color of the sea over white sands in some fabulously exotic coastal resort. Which is, I suppose, how it got its name 🙂
Warm hugs and prayers for those of you who need a little lift tonight.
Hugs
Jaydee

Perfectly CAS – love all that white space. Wonderful card. Thanks so much for playing along at ATCAS xx
Hi Jaydee! I’m back! :o) I’ve missed coming to check on things and see what’s up.
I too really like Coastal Cabana and think it’s a beautiful cool, crisp blue and love it paired with the red. What a great color challenge.
The card is beautifully CAS, and bet Nance loved it. :o)
Hoping all is well in your part of the world. Off to check what I may have missed…
Hugs!

Jaydee, I love the simplicity of your card. That peacock image is awesome! Thanks for playing along this week at CAS-ual Fridays!
Aww, Jaydee how sweet of you! Imagine my surprise when I came over to comment on your fun DT card and found an even happier surprise! I love this birthday card. I’ve not been able to do anything with this feather stamp but you’ve made it shine. Thank you for giving me a big birthday smile! ((hugs))
