Card #1

Two card Thursday...

I made this first card for The Paper Players challenge and then remembered that this weeks challenge was suppose to be a CAS card.  So...using the leftover pieces of this die and the same supplies that were out on my desk, I created a second card that was clean and simple.

Card #2

Little Red Wagon // #LRW842 ...A theme challenge!!  Keep it Simple is the theme for this current challenge.  Card #2 fits this theme perfectly...a clean and simple take on the original card.
