Color Throwdown Challenge #27

Here is my card for today's limited supply challenge over at SCS: make a CAS card!! What does that mean?? Clean And Simple--it was fun to go back to the basics and just keep it simple!! I decided to use the Color Throwdown Challenge in this card as well. This weeks colors were Real Red, Brocade Blue, and Basic Black. The only black I used on this card was the sentiment. I know up against the other Color Throwdown Challenge girls this will appear very simple.........

You can also spend alittle more time, use a few more products, and come up with something like this one......

I stamped the U in Brocade Blue and cut it out--tied a trio of ribbons to the one side--attached it to a piece of Real Red that I ran through the Cuttlebug--added the MISS to the other side of the U, this piece I cut out using the deckle scissors--layered this main panel onto a piece of Brocade Blue that I also ran throught the Cuttlebug using the same folder--added a trio of gingham brads that I found at Target in the dollar bin (what a steal!!)--all of this on a base layer of Whisper White.

I think both card turned out good--in a pinch or for a challenge I like the CAS card, but the fun of putting together a more detail cards wins in my book. What do you think???
