CAS-ual Fridays Challenge CFC1

Yippeeee! I found a challenge that is right up my alley as far as card making is concerned.

If you aren't sure what CAS is...it is a design style called 'Clean And Simple.' I adore it because I work full time and have a little one so quick cards are a MUST in my world.

And I'm very excited to play along in the very first challenge hosted by CAS-ual Fridays.



The challenge was to use text in some form, besides the normal sentiment, as the focal point. I stamped a text background stamp over a Creative Memeories die cut, adhered it with foam tape, stamped my senty in white ink and did the "Nichole Heady" line frame thing around my card.

All this while the little bean slept. Ahhhhh, gotta love me some CAS.

    This is so elegant! Your text on your flower die make sit look like vellum. Love the simple border around the card base :) Thanks for playing this week at CAS-ual Fridays!
