Happy Krafty Chicks Thursday! We’re starting our Week 3 challenge for the month, which is our Clean and Simple (CAS) challenge. In general a CAS card has lots of white (or open) space, limited layers and embellishments, and one distinct focal point.
The drinks on my card are from a Newton’s Nook set, it’s kind of an older set, but one of those that I never could part with! I colored the images with Copic markers, and simply die cut the panel to mount on another card base.
