I came across a fun card making blog that offers a monthly challenge.
The blog is Simply Clean and Simple.
It is an "anything goes CAS" challenge with an optional theme, this month...
PRETTY PINKS.
I figured out that CAS stands for "clean and simple".
(One point of interest, lots of open space, minimal layers and few embellishments)
I hope my card will qualify.
It is fun to get inspired by other card makers and crafters and have a little challenge to get you in your craft room to create. I love to send "happy mail" so I designed this card.
- I stamped and fussy cut the black and white banner.
- It is hard to see but the striped background is embossed.
- The "Happy Mail" sign is attached with a brad, so it has a little movement.
- The pink flower paper was one in my stash.
Happy Creating.
Stay Cozy,
Carrie

Very pretty card you did a wonderful job.
ReplyDeleteLove it! So cheerful and definitely pretty in pink 💗
ReplyDeletei am an "in the past" card maker and scrapbooker. i make cards occasionally for my husband, i don't drive, it feels kinda' weird to ask him to take me to the card store so i can buy him a card. for others, i have not really been sending out many cards, it does seem like an old tradition, but one i always loved. your card is awesome, nice colors and the card is laid out nicely!!
ReplyDeleteI love getting surprises in the mail, and Pink cards are the prettiest. ; )
