Krafty Chicks Challenge #842: 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.

#842 CAS

This week I'm playing with a Totallyawake4-life's sketch challenge. One day while scrolling Facebook, one of her creations caught my eye. Then I noticed Margaret plays along and shares many challenges. She was (actually still is) everywhere on my Facebook feed, in many of the groups I follow, and even in the Krafty Chicks Challenge gallery. So I think it's fine time I play along with her sketch challenge #TA4L023.

And since we are having beautiful fall weather (little windy though), I thought I'd play with some pumpkin. Instead of a big block shape of card stock or DSP in the background, I thought the gate die was a great substitute.

Products used:

• Stamp Set: Painted Pumpkins
• Card Stock: Basic Beige, Crumb Cake, Early Espresso, Old Olive, Basic White
• Ink Pads: Early Espresso, Pecan Pie, Cajun Craze, Pumpkin Pie 
• Accessories: Painted Pumpkin Dies, Blending Brush, Painted Pumpkins Decorative Masks, Linen Thread, Speckled Dots, Stampin Dimensionals 

 

No card is complete without finishing the inside and the envelope with a coordinating element like some pumpkins. Keep it simple!
