Sending Hugs & Happy Thoughts

Hi Artsy Friends,

I’m glad I made this card right before the deadline of CAS Stencil May Challenge. Boy, I haven’t been able to play this year due to unusually busy life schedule. Yet I’m so sad this is the last challenge. Thank you, DTs, for all your inspirations in the past. I’m honored to have been picked as Outstanding Designs several times.  I’m glad I still have CAS Mix Up to play in the future.
Hope my card is eye-pleasing to you. Thanks for stopping by.
