Beautiful Christine!
I love CAS cards, maybe cos I'm clean, and everyone knows I'm simple!
I think it's simply stunning, white and silver are such classy colours and the embossing looks great to me.
Sorry to hear you've been having a few problems at home, good job your handy with the DIY Mrs Fixit!
Take care
Love Elaine xx

Gorgoues card....love the embossing...beautiful!!
You calamities did make me chuckle! It sounds like me x I was cleaning the shower room the other day and wiped over the shower and turned it on FULL! ON MYSELF! And the door went! MMMMMM do I answer it? I thought sod it I had answered the door to the postwoman in my pyjamas and apologised to her for the penguins!!! so I answered it! Worse nightmare, Mother in law, and me with walking stick, jay cloth and drenched!!! What worries me though is her complete acceptance that I would be in such a state without question! he! he!
