A Favorite CAS Layout

Posting a tad early tonight seeing as we've got a nasty huge thunderstorm bearing down on us. Yikes!

This is one of my favorite clean and simple layouts. You see this particular layout a lot in magazines with layers where I put the border stamp, mats under the stamped panel, ribbon and other embellishments, and colored card bases. But stripped down to its basics, the layout is still super lovely!


Supplies
stamps: Papertrey Floral Frenzy, Retro borders
ink: Memento
paper: Papertrey Ink white
accessories: rhinestones, dimensionals, Corner Chomper

Just beautiful! Definitely another one for my faves !! Hope the storm is just awesome to look at and doesn't do any damage!

You are the Queen of Clean. This is so pretty - everything looks perfect. Hope your weather doesn't get tornadoish. It was wild here, yesterday, for a while, but for sure not like Missouri. Those poor people. First the flood and now the tornado.

Great card. I love how your rounded the corners on the layered piece. Would not have thought to do that.

And I like your CAS layout better than adding all those other layers! Lovely card. I hope Mother Nature spared you last night; so many other cities (Joplin) were hit so hard.

Another card sample for me to move to my Simplicity folder. What a great idea to "strip down" the layers and make a CAS card. I won't so easily diminish those fussy complicated cards now, but will think about peeling some layers instead. Thanks!
