I inked up a rectangular acrylic block alternately with Memento Bamboo Leaves and Dandelion and then stamped directly onto the card base. Then I stamped the chair and tree with Versafine Onyx Black over the green and yellow -- and clear embossed it. I have found I like the look of the line frame on CAS cards, so I drew the frame with a Bamboo Leaves marker.

A very cute card, Lois. I just got this set last week. Can't wait to use it. Happy to have you on the team.
Lois, this scene is so relaxing! What a wonderful way to spend Australia Day, resting under a tree in a chair. great CAS card.
Wow, your acrylic block stamping makes a fabulous background for your tranquil and peaceful scene, I love the sort of marbled look. And I'd love to be under that tree with a good book on a warm summer's day.
Super CAS card, Lois. Love your acrylic stamped background. Glad to be working with you here. Seems like old times. :-) Not that we're not already working together.
Welcome, welcome, Lois! I'm so glad you're on the team! Your CAS card is terrific! The scene is so relaxing and I love the lined frame you drew.
This is beautiful, Lois...welcome aboard yet another great team. I know you'll be the perfect fit!
I bought this set some time back - because the chair and weeping willow tree remind me of my grandparents' farm. There were willows surrounding the big house and chairs and benches scattered around the trees (and the trees were awesome to climb) - such fun memories! Your card is clean and very lovely, Lois!!
I too love the frame on CAS cards and you did this one beautifully....love that image...I'd like to be in a warm place right now....we are experiencing sleet at the moment
Love the lined frame you made! I would love to have some time to sit in that peaceful looking chair! TFS
Lois, I love all your cards, and print them out so I can use them as samples. I really admire your work, and with I had the time to do more. Health problems keep me from doing much.
I have been trying to call Faith for a week, and am extremely worried. I am her friend Laura from California. We are great phone buddies, and as I said, I am concerned.
I did not know of any other way of contacting you, and I hope you read this comment. My e-mail address is lauraa_pitzer@me.com or 2lpitzers@verizon.net. I hope to hear from you soon. Thanks so much. Laura P.
