Wonderful Wednesday with Joni

Hi, it's Joni.
Today I actually tried my hand at a CAS card.

 Yes, this card only has only one layer.

 I used a speckled white card stock for interest.

I embossed a couple of lines across the bottom of the card.

 I stamped the F575 Vintage Fan in black ink in the bottom corner and the B239 Biggest Fan  sentiment in the top right corner. 

A trio of enamel dots accent the card.

I have to say I like this look!
