CAS Challenge Card

Woohoo, it's Saturday!!! Good Morning!!!!!
I hope you're all off to a great day! I'm doing laundry and we have left overs for a change!!! Things are looking up LOL!!

My card for today is for the Limited Supplies Challenge on SCS. We had to CAS---make Clean and Simple cards.....do you have any idea how hard it is to not add layers?!!! I must admit though that it was nice to sit down and make a card in 5 minutes and still be able to say---"How pretty" I used Inspired by Nature for my grass stamped in Old Olive, the butterfly out of Essence of Love stamped in Regal Rose & punched with different circle punches and a sentiment from Best Yet punched with the Wide Oval Punch. I added some Regal Rose grosgrain ribbon and I was all done!!!

Well I'm off to the laundry room.....it's never ending with 3 children and a husband with constant dirty clothes due to his job! I hope to complete a few challenge cards in between loads---that would be sweet!!! Thanks so much for stopping by & I hope you have a great rest of the day!
TTFN,
Hugs,

  1. I feel your pain with the layers...I did CAS too...although I like yours better! Love the colors! It's hard doing a CAS when you're used to layering and embellishing to your hearts content! LOL. Anyway, lovely job!

  3. Man! I hate laundry! Hubby usually does it. Yes. He's VERY WELL trained! But I do the folding. He always says "It's so much more fun when we do it together. Plus, it gets done faster." So true.

    Beautiful card. I like the CAS look.

    Looks like it's gonna warm up some. Lucky us!!!

  13. Jackie,
    What a sweet card. Just love those blades of grass - wish I could see more of them instead of snow! Trying to think what I like least - snow or laundry. Hmm...

    TFS and thanks for dropping by my blog earlier!
