Krafty Chicks Challenge #821: 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. I always have a difficult time with the true CAS design of lots of white space but I've come to realized after all this time that there's a wide interpretation to CAS (Clean And Simple). So just have fun with it.

#821 CAS

Today I am showcasing an alternate card using the April Paper Pumpkin kit: Lakeside Retreat. It has serene vibes and a little bit of a masculine feel. I just started playing with this kit and have already created the three suggested card to get my creative mojo going and two more alternate designs. This one for CAS week and another for next week's Masculine Challenge. And I have so many more idea flowing.

Products used:

• Stamp Set: April 2026 Paper Pumpkin kit: Lakeside Retreat
• Card Stock: Crumb Cake, Pecan Pie
• Ink Pads: Pecan Pie
• Accessories: April 2026 Paper Pumpkin kit die cuts, Blending Brushes, Woodland Textured Impressions Embossing Folder, Spotlight on Nature Dies, Stampin Dimensionals 

 

No card is complete without finishing the inside with a coordinating element like the "drift wood". As the envelopes from the kit already had a pattern, I left it alone. Keep it simple!
