     I made two one-layered CAS cards for this birthday special blog hop. 

Here's the first one:-

I used the newly released stamp set EGGStacy(Concept by Parul Gupta ; Designed by Pon Malar) to make two cards I've shared here. It is such an intelligently composed and designed stamp set, with some varied images and sentiments with wordplay, that can easily be mixed and matched to make so many different cards. Perfect for making CAS cards. 

The above card involved some masking and stamping, colouring and fussy cutting. Colouring of the images was done using Faber Castell pencils.

Here's the second one :-

To make this one, the base was lightly sponged using distress inks(abandoned coral, scattered straw, antique linen) such that it covered just the top half of the card. The 3 'egg' images were stamped on a scratch piece of card paper and each of these 'eggs' were given a different stamped 'face'. I decided to give  googly eyes to each of these cute eggs to make them look more interesting ;) These cute egg faces were then fussy cut to be mounted over the card base using 3D foam tape.

If time wasn't a constraint, I would've loved to make a few more cards using this amazing stamp set. But I would definitely be using this one a lot in coming days and will be sharing more ideas.

That's all from my end. Hope you liked my cards.

Your next stop in the hop is the talented Ruchi's blog (Ruchi Crafeteria). :)
