Just Us Girls Challenge #597 // Addicted to CAS #204

 Today's card was inspired by 2 challenges...

Just Us Girls // #JUG597 ...A trend challenge!! The trend for this current challenge...Black & White!!  I love this combo although I usually throw in a splash of color.  Today was fun keeping it just the Black & White only!!

Addicted to CAS // #204 ...A code word challenge!! The code word for this current challenge...FISHY!!  I wasn't sure if I could replace "white space" with black and keep my card CAS so I went and read the rules.  Here is what Addicted to CAS says..."White space just means an area of your card with nothing on it at all. It doesn't have to be 'white'. It could be brown, pink or red. Any colour as long as there is lots of SPACE."
