CAS-ual Fridays Challenge #34

It's a fun week over at CAS-ual Fridays!  First off, we are back from a holiday break with a new challenge! Secondly?  The prize is super fun!  Check out the CAS-ual Fridays blog for the details!  I am sure that Simon Says Stamp has something to do with it and a little bit of info about a Guest DT spot!  Just sayin'!

Here is this weeks challenge...


....just use some chipboard in your CAS creation!  

Here is mine for the week...

I used some chipboard Thickers!  I hoard them.  I've said it out loud before and I am ok with it!  So, I thought...why not?  And I do have to say I am happy with the results!  Love this new Stitches and Swirls from PTI!  So fun!
