This card makes me happy as it is a true "Susan" style card…one that I like to say that it is a CAS card…

( Clean And Simple)

I hope that you look at this design and let your imagination go with how many different cards you can make using this CAS layout!

We have sooooo many wonderful sentiment stamps that are just perfect for this style of card. I always try to remember advice that my upline, Mary Fish, said….when you are on the fence of which stamp set to purchase….go with the sentiment!

I can clearly remember her saying that on a call and thought….really??? That's not how I felt…but it is true and this is one way that I have grown this past year developing my style. We always have ways to embellish a card…let the "sentiment" speak for itself! This is so true and I think this card is a great example of just that!

Stampin' Up! continues to pave the way for all of us in making beautiful cards with not only amazing stamps…but with amazing tools that are both practical and easy to use…this card shows it with the use of the Big Shot, framelits, our beautiful paper and our wonderful stamps!

Here is the scoop….enjoy and play around with this layout and come up with some great cards! Please email me pictures of your work….I always love to see it!

• The base is the good old A2 card stock in Whisper White and then a smidge smaller in Crushed Curry….love that color!!!!
• Take a piece of scrap Whisper White and stamp the THANKS image from the new stamp set, Harvest of Thanks in Night of Navy and then run it through the Big Shot using the Labels Collection Framelits…simple!

• Now to the simple fun part…take this super yummy designer series paper from the Eastern Elegance Collection and using a larger Labels Collection Framelit…cut a piece right in the center!Again, super easy!

• Presto! I now adhere using a bunch of my stampin' vitamins, stampin dimensionals and mount my designer series paper….then I center my stamped image! Too cute…right?

• The envelope just was jazzed up using the same paper on the outside flap of the envelope…so simple, yet elegant!

So….I ask you – What do you think? Do you think you could do this….OF COURSE you can!!! Please feel free to email me your ideas of other great sentiments that we have or simple leave me a comment on how you like it!
