A CAS card

 I thought I would make a quick CAS card as I am short of crafting time ... new kitten 'n' all!!

I used a WMS doilly stamp and stamped it in raspberry ink on to the card blank, before masking it and using an Off Beat pattern stamp to create the threading behind the doilly.  Finally I stamped the WMS greeting in raspberry ... very quick and simple!!
