For my first card, I used the new Big Berry-Cherry set! I mentioned yesterday that the set also contained some fabulous patterned cherries, but I wanted to use them as fun circles as well. I embossed them using some neon colored embossing powder and adhered them to a dark gray (with black stripes) background so that the colors would really "pop"! The sentiment is from the Funky Feathers set.

For my second card, I decided to make another CAS card. I started by lightly brushing on some color (I used the tops of ink pads to get the color and a waterbrush) to create the background. I then embossed one of the feathers and sentiments from the Funky Feathers set using sparkly gold embossing powder. That's it...truly an easy card! :-)
That's all from me today...but make sure you head on over to Anya's Blog as I'm sure she has something cooked up that will knock your socks off!
Thanks so much for stopping by! Hugs, Laurie
