CAS = Clean And Simple

For this challenge, I want you to make a Thank You card that is at least 30% white/ivory and doesn't have too many embellishments on it.  That doesn't mean you can't add some.
 On this one you can see that I just did a small bit of stamping and added a sparkly ribbon.
 This one has some patterned paper with a bit of ribbon and stamping.  (This one isn't a thank you, just an example.)
 This one has a few embellishments.
 This one has bling, but not too much.
 This one has layering, but not too much.

So, you can see there is an awful lot you can do with a Clean And Simple card, and still have it CAS.  Remember, 30% white space and a thank you.  You have until Sunday, January 1 at 11:59pm to make and upload your card.  I will choose one of the participants randomly to receive a small prize.

Hopefully you all had a wonderful Christmas!  Sorry I didn't get this up early as planned.

Participants:
Terrie
Georgette
Laura (Mrs. Jones)
Lora
Brenda
Cindy
Janice
Susan
Nancy A
Beverly
Elaine
Judy L
Marlene
Jane

Random.Org choose 7, so our winner is Janice!  Thanks for playing, ladies,  Your cards were amazing.

 Beautiful cards, Golda!  I am partial to the butterflies, so I especially like those.  You left some good examples.  I hope to be able to do these this week.

Those are all fantastic cards Golda! I'm not sure if I will be doing any challenges this week. We still have a full week of getting together with friends and family and many activities planned. I'm looking forward to New Year's Eve because it means everything stops, calms down and I can get back to crafting! Maybe I can squeeze in a challenge on New Years.

Pretty cards Golda. My in-laws are leaving in the morning and I'm done with holiday stuff - except for putting away the tree and decorations, but we won't do that until next week anyway. I also need to make some thank you cards so this challenge is perfect timing!

Golda, I love your cards!! They are all beautiful.

I made 2 cards today. One pretty CAS and one sort-of. Wouldn't you know, they were both birthday cards...not thank you cards. I thought about making them "thank you for being born" LOL but I didn't know if anyone would like to receive those. Smiley

Laura, I'm hoping you took a picture anyway, as I want to see your cards!  I just figured we probably all needed at least 1 thank you card this week.
