Hi Friends
I love clean and simple (CAS) cards. I mean I LOVE them. But I cannot make them. I try and never NEVER like what turns out. Usually, I just toss them into a bin or deconstruct and reuse the materials.
Tonight, though, I am posting them. Mainly because I really wanted to play in Kim’s challenge at Off the Wall Craftiness. I love the colors (robin’s egg blue and dark brown---yummy).
Here are my attempts at CAS…
Both cards use Memory Box stamps (which I love but cannot seem to create anything I really like from).
I may keep trying or I may just go back to my more layered and complicated style:) I tend to like a challenge, so I will probably keep trying.
Thanks for stopping by and remember there’s the EBTKS sketch challenge going on where you have the opportunity to win a $25 gift card from Lawn Fawn!
Hugs and blessings

I hope that you never give up trying because I absolutely adore these CAS cards. They are so bright, so clean and so very cheery. Perfect-o!
ReplyDeleteI think those are great, but I agree CAS can be hard! Don't be alarmed when it takes several attempts to get it right.
ReplyDeleteOh Lynnette, I love these! I think they turned out great! CAS is my FAVORITE! :)
ReplyDeleteGirl you did a fabulous job! I absolutely love the bird nest one! I don't know what you are talking about because you seem to be a pro at them!
ReplyDeleteI can't believe you're not crazy about these cards Lynnette. I would be very happy to receive one of these adorable cards in the mail, especially the top one....just saying =) and you did a fantastic job with the colouring on the bottom card. Love the wood grain.
ReplyDeleteI struggle with CAS too...but love the look when it does work out.
well, I think both of your cards turned out fabulous...
ReplyDeleteThese are too cute! That squirrel one cracks me up! He's getting a little squirrely! :)
ReplyDeleteLOVE them both, Lynnette!
ReplyDeleteThese are fantastic CAS cards! Those stamps are to die for cute! Love your color combos, too!
