I wanted to show you this week that a CAS card does not have to be white. I didn't use any white on my card this week but I allowed my one layer focal panel to have lots of open space. The card itself can be put together easily but for me it is the design process that is more time consuming.
The birds are from Melissa Bickford's Tweet Talk stamp set and the sentiment from Heart-2-Heart #3. Both can be found a Papertrey Ink. Instead of using white I creating this clean and simple card using Ripe Avocado and Kraft.
Head on over to CASology today to learn what the `cue card`means to you, how you can play along and see the all the cards created by the Design Team to inspire you.
Don`t forget to visit the blogs of the other members of the Design Team:
