Paperwings Blog Hop: CAS (clean and simple) Cards

It's time for the monthly Paperwings Angel Art Blog Hop and tonight is featuring CAS - clean and simple - cards! How fun is that! It's great to have layers and layers but it's also great to have a simple card that goes through the mail easily that is clean and simple and celebrates the stamped image. :)

As you can see, I did add a layer but that was just to "frame" the image. The Angel Company's Wonder and Joy stamp set can be colored so many ways to bring joy and sunshine to the one receiving the card. Here's the inside:
Copic markers brought the image to life. I love that they make me feel like an artist. :) They are blendable and correctable with the "blender pen" which removes color. They're an investment but are worth the money. You can refill them and replace the nibs so they'll work for you for as long as you take care of the overall marker. I never thought I'd buy them but once you start, you just have to have more.  :)

I hope you'll continue hopping through these other blogs to check out more CAS cards!!

Hi Seleise!! I'm tickled pink that Googling "simple cards" brought me directly to this post of yours from last year. I am LOVING this adorable girl and your coloring. How cute!!! I have to do something I'm afraid of for a challenge. I thought, I've tried lots of techniques and simple is not something I do well. But am soo loving your card so I think I'm gonna have to do this. :) THANKS!!! Hope you have a nice weekend. Hugs, Kris
