CAS

Afternoon all hope your having a lovely weekend, we've had lovely sunshine here this afternoon after a dull start.

Today my card share is Humphrey from the decoupage kit, it's a CAS card very quick and simple to make, I embossed some white card with my Embossalicious folder Lattice, matted and layered it on to lemon card ,
because I am hopeless at cutting circles I used my ek success circle cutter to cut a very fine circle for around the image to hide the uneven circle, lol. I used a sentiment from Humphrey stamp set, but can't remember now which one it was, a little red bow to finish.
