ATSM #69 - Addicted to CAS

We have a wonderful new challenge for you this week at Addicted to stamps and more... Addicted to CAS. We all know what clean and simple is right? It's all about the design, not the technique,  not the tools, not the embellishments. It's all about the design Uncluttered, lots of white or open space and one main focal point. For my DT card I followed the same rules...

To make this card,  I used a wood mounted stamp (from Anita's Inque Boutique) and did some paper piecing. I also created the glow behind the gift boxes by masking and inking. The shadow from the boxes was created using grey pencil color. Sentiment was hand written. Hope you like my card. 

There is a lot more lovely inspiration from the DT, Please visit our challenge blog here. The winner will receive a wonderful prize from our sponsor this week Nicecrane Design. Take a peek at their store here 

I am excited to see what you will come up with ....

    You have the best writing, Deepti! I always admire your freehanded work. I love the glow you added behind and the shadowing beneath them. So much depth on such a simple card!
