I hope your weekend included nicer weather than mine. It was nothing but clouds, rain, and cool weather until yesterday around 4:00 p.m. when the sun decided to shine. But, this week promises to be warmer and full of sunshine. I am so glad.
It's Monday and that means it is time for the CAS challenge on Splitcoaststampers. It is CAS #273 and the theme is water. I have a bit of water but just pretend that is an ocean full. :-) I love pretty, colorful sailboats so that is what I decided to use. It is colored with Copics and I just added some banners with the sentiment.
You probably think CAS cards are just about all I make, but not true. I am very busy with other kinds that just don't get on my blog and won't for a while. They are my cards for the Splitcoaststampers Dirty Dozen. I may share some of those at a later date. I have so many.
Recipe:
Stamp-Sailboat image is unknown, Mark's Finest Papers and Stamps/Silly Shell set (sentiment)
Paper-PTI white cardstock, green scraps, unknown blue cardstock
Ink-Memento Tuxedo Black
Accessories-twine, Fiskars scalloped banner punch, Copics/B000, B21, B24, C1, C5, G14, R39, Y28

Very nice CAS masculine card - love it tfs!!!
Gorgeous CAS design, Brenda! Love the color combo and sailboats! The banner is perfect! We finally got sun, too, but all in all, a dreary weekend, for sure!
This is really nicely done! Can't wait to see the "dirty dozen" cards when you are able to post them.
Oh pretty sailboats.Beautiful coloring and I can see the entire ocean surrounding your boats. LOL CAS is my favorite so I am always pleased when you make one of those cards. Sorry abut your weekend weather, but I do hope it improves quickly for you. We had a decent weekend but we are expecting a lot of rain this upcoming week. Enjoy today.
Beautiful Benzi! I love the boats and the colors you chose! Would be a nice card for Father's Day !
Oh this is so serene and beautiful - what a vision you've created with this beautiful sailboat! I have a similar card going up tomorrow though nowhere near as striking as yours! :)
Hi, Benzi! I have dearly missed you! Your boating adventure here is a beautiful CAS card. Somehow, you are gifted with creating CAS but they are classy, beautiful, colorful, with great conveyance of sentiment/feeling. Here I can feel myself gentling down, relaxing, feeling the fresh air as the breeze flows through my hair and kisses my face. Wonderful colors! I have missed you so much. My finger tips are slowly becoming less painful, so I am trying to type a little bit more each day without triggering the symptoms again LOL huggers, de
What a beautiful CAS card, and such great colors too.
I love your sail away card...very atmospheric,...
hugs and kisses from germany, silvi xoxo
Nothing wrong with posting CAS cards because you do them wonderfully and I love them! This is no exception either. LOVE that banner you added and the sail boats are fabulous!

This is sensational! It is designed and executed with precision and I love it!! I know CAS is not the only style you do, Barb, although I do love it when you make them! You have an amazing range when it comes to styles! Have a great week! Hugs, Darnell
I enjoy your CAS cards. No hurry for the others right now. I agree with Darnell completely. Love this one.
Ahhhh this is fabulous, I'm lovin your matching knotted bunting too!
Wishing you a week filled with sunshine :)
This is so calming and serene, and I love the blue & green colors! Smooth sailing is all I can think of when I look at this pretty card! Love the banner!
What delightful sailboats! I'm going to get by SCS and check out your DD cards one of these days. I'm hoping life will slow down a bit next week. I keep hoping.

Hallo liebe Benzi,
bei uns war es am Wochenende wunderschönes warmes Wetter und ideses Woche wird es heiß.
Wir waren am Nordseestrand am Yacht Hafen. Dort lagen genauso schöne Segelbote wie auf Deiner wunderbaren Karte vor Anker. :)))
Deine Segelboot Karte ist herrlich an zu sehen.
Ganz liebe Grüße und schönes Wettter wünscht Dir, Carmen
What a great CAS card Barb and I love that it is so suitable for a man. I have such trouble with masculine cards so this is great inspiration. Love the flag banner too!
Hugs

What a gorgeous CAS desing and pretty color combo!
Fabulous masculine card Benz! Thanks for the well wishes! Hugs and lots of love!!
Wonderful blue and green combo, Benzi, and I love the sailboats! You and Lynn have both been in a nautical CAS mindset, haven't you? I love the CAS designs that the two of you do. I think you gals may be the absolute best at CAS!
Love your wonderful use of the colors, Benzi! Fabulous masculine design!
Really beautiful, Brenda! Honestly, I almost think I see it sailing on air! Very elegant set sail!!
Brenda this is just beautiful. Love those colors....Hugs, joann
Gorgeous CAS card with boats and sweet banner...well done! Have a great weekend!:-)
So handsome, and a great masculine summertime card.
Clean and simple is easiest when you have other, more intricate designs going on at the same time.
Have a great holiday weekend, Benzi.
So peaceful and fun! Great colors. Wish I was at the beach don't you? Soft breeze, no cares - sounds wonderful. Hugz!
Wunderschön, Brenda. Ich liebe maritime Karten.
Liebe Grüße, Anja
I'm enjoying your bright CAS cards. I guess I don't think "CAS" when I see them, because of the designs & colors that you use. I have to say I am definitely not tired of seeing these..you do them so well. This one reminds me of watching the sailboats in Fla and feeling the nice cool breezes. A fab guy card too. Can't wait until you can share the other cards too. Always love your fabulous work. TFS
