Clean and simple challenge card


Hiya everyone,

This is my card for the new "less is more" clean and simple themed challenge blog. I have to admit I find CAS a little difficult as I love papers/flowers/ribbons etc but I thought I'd try and enter this every week as this card only took me about 5 minutes to make. The theme this week is a one layer card with either flowers/trees on it. The image I used is from pink petticoat and is called dandelion wisp. Its only £1.25 and comes with or without sentiments added. I just printed it off onto white hammercard, folded it, cut the edges off and added 3 pearls.

Et voila! - Simples!

I will enter this into the following challenges:-

Creative card world - Square card
Totally papercrafts - Do it witha digi
Challenge up your life - Monochrome
Secret crafter - Stamped flower
Stampavie - Monochrome
Truly scrumptious - Swirls and pearls
Digi doodle shop - Anything goes
Rubber cafe - No pattened paper
Stampin B's - Monochrome

Thanks for looking!!!

    It looks great Paula.
    There are ways of making one layer cards which involve a little more crafting, but with a very short amount of time, cards like this attractive one are very quick and easy to do.
    Thanks for joining us,I really hope you will make us a regular stop in your crafting week.

    Super card Paula
    It is such a misconception that CAS cards are quick and with no effort put into them. that is most certainly not the case, they can actually take longer as correct placement is crucial!
    Yours is perfect!
    thank you! Look forward to seeing week by week
