Krafty Chicks Challenge #708: CAS

Happy Krafty Chicks Thursday to you!

Are you ready for this week's challenge?? On the third week of the month, I'm the hostess and we are looking for CAS. There's a wide interpretation to CAS (Clean And Simple), so just have fun with it.

 Now, here's my CAS Challenge card: 

I love this Clean and Simple layout with the flower images in the top row and a gingham ribbon separating them from the sentiment. I also love the cheerful colour. This card is pretty much a Throwback Thursday card as well since I used mostly retired product. Only the ink, Stampin' Blends, and Basic White card stock is current. The stamp set used here is from the February 2020 Paper Pumpkin kit: Lovely Day and this card does have a Lovely Day feeling!

After I coloured the flowers, I outlined them with the Pool Party Stampin' Blend. I like the shadow look and it sort of gives them a bit of dimension. The ribbon was tied in a flat knot, I didn't want to add the bulk of a bow to a simple card.

No card is complete without finishing the inside with a coordinating image Same goes for the envelope. And since I love to colour, I added lots of flowers. Keep it simple!
