PDCC83 and CAS-ual Friday Challenge #4

Another week, another challenge with the Play Date Cafe!

This week's colors worked out perfectly for the cards that I need: graduation cards! Plus, as luck would have it, the CAS-ual Friday challenge this week was GRADUATION cards too! Yay! I love it when things come together like this.

So, on to clean and simple with black & white with a splash of green:



Here's my card:

Once again, I look at it and am not sure if it qualifies as "clean", but for me, this is definitely simple! I put it together in about 20 minutes. Love that! I guess I'll have to think even "clean-er" next week! ;)

Supply list:

Cardstock: White, Black (PTI); Green (HOTP)
Patterned Paper:
Stamp Set(s): For the Graduate, Fillable Frames #4, 2008 Holiday Tag Collection, Background Basics: Text Style (PTI)
Ink/Colorants: Black, Grey Flannel, Ponderosa Pine (CTMH)
Embellishments: White button; Black hemp (CTMH)
Tools: Simple Circles border die, Fillable Frames #4 die (PTI)

  7. I'd say it's CAS. Heck, if you can do it in under 20 minutes, that is CAS in my book! THanks for hanging your work in our gallery at The Play DAte CAfe.
