I admit I struggled on this one. Since I started blogging, I have discovered that I tend to be a CAS gal. It's hard to create an interactive card and keep it CAS, especially when you leave the challenge to the last possible minute. Yes, I didn't start my card until this morning. I wanted to use this week's Make-it-Monday technique again, glittered buttons. Most of you that follow my blog know that I am a huge fan of glitter. The sentiment that I wanted to be interactive is meant to send someone cheer, so I wanted to use bright Spring colors. Although I have had issues with my new Spring Moss premium dye ink changing colors, I opted to use it on my card because it is simply one of my favorite colors.
So I based my card off of a previous design seen here. Thanks for stopping by!
Such a beautiful card Deb, your colours are so spring-y. Your pull out sentiment is so thoughtful. I love the houndstooth. Agree that CAS and interactive are hard to do.
ReplyDeleteSuper lovely, Deb! I love your row of glittered buttons and the sentiment that you pull out (do you have a pocket in the back?)
ReplyDeleteI admire your CAS style, Deb. I struggle with CAS, though it is a style I really like. For me, I often end up feeling like something is still missing from my project, therefore I tend to be the more layers kind of gal! I think you did a great job with this challenge!
ReplyDeleteso cute! love the glitter buttons!
ReplyDeleteReally cute! I love that the little tag could be used as a bookmark and a great reminder of your care for them everytime they open their book! Great job! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteLove this card! Nice job!
ReplyDeleteLovely card! Love the springy houndstooth:)
ReplyDeleteYour card really jumped out on the PTI gallery - love the CAS with the crinkly, textured ribbon. Great card!
ReplyDeleteGreat colors and a wonderfully simple idea!
ReplyDeleteDeb, this is a beautiful CAS interactive card. I love a bit of glitter too. The buttons look great. I just might always glitter mine. Not for the guys though :)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card. You did a fantastic job as always keeping with the CAs. Love the buttons. The crinkled ribbon for your pull out is perfect!
ReplyDeleteI think CAS is hard to do - much less interactive CAS! You did a great job - very pretty!
ReplyDeleteLove this layout before, and still love it. It can be fresh every time. Your pull out message is such a great idea, and I love those glittery spring colored buttons.
ReplyDeleteGreat card. ;-) Love the glitter buttons and the way that sweet sentiment pulls out from the side. And the houndstooth is great! Lovely card. ;-)
ReplyDeleteWow, how cool! Love that you can pull the sentiment out! And those glitter buttons on the front are just fabulous :)
ReplyDeleteDeb you did a great job of keeping this challenge card CAS! I love the glittery buttons too :o)

ReplyDeleteThis is SO sweet! I love the rainbow colors and the glitter.
ReplyDeleteP.S. I found your blog through the PTI blog hop (obviously) but I just finished going through several of your posts and love your work! I was wondering if you'd consider adding the Email Subscription gadget to your sidebar since I find the easiest way to follow blogs is when their posts come to my inbox!
