| THE OLD CARD |
I remember liking it a lot when I made it, but it most definitely is not a clean and simple card. I kept the focal point and the color palette palette the same, though I did swap out PTI's Lemon Tart for Harvest Gold, and this is my new and CAS-improved card:
I'm hoping that it's obvious that I simplified and cleaned up EVERYTHING on this card right down to the pillow. :) And the ironic part is that I am 100% certain that recipient of the first card would love this new CAS one a whole lot better. It's so much more her. This challenge was a blast! Now if I could just apply this same concept with my entire house. :) There's a tad bit more time to participate (it closes Sunday afternoon), so if you get a chance, I'd highly recommend joining the fun. Have a fabulous rest of the weekend! ETA: I totally forgot to link up my card after I posted it...silly me! Oh, well...it was totally worth making the card anyway.
Supplies (All PTI unless otherwise noted)
Stamps: On My Couch
Ink: Basic Gray (SU!), Harvest Gold, Raspberry Fizz
Ha...laughing about applying this challenge to your house. I need to do that! I love how you did the before and after...I love the gorgeous damask on the first, but the second is amazing! Love how clean it is Lindsey.
ReplyDeleteLOVE....what a fun take on the contrast challenge! Although your original card is so very pretty, I really love how you CAS-ified it!
ReplyDeleteThat sentiment is so fun with the comfy chair image! This one made me smile!
ReplyDeleteLindsey, isn't it fun to revisit our older cards with a new "eye?" I LOVE the first card, but I will admit I am very drawn to the CAS version, too! Thanks for joining us this week at CASology...your cards definitely illustrate the contrast between CAS and not-so-CS!
ReplyDelete(Lindsey...I don't see your card in the In-Links at CASology...be sure to link it up!)
ReplyDeleteLindsey your CAS improved card is fabulous! Thank you so much for joining us this week at CASology!
ReplyDeleteOh, Lindsay--A+ on this assignment. I think your original card is very fine, indeed, but your newer one is so much more CAS in every way. It is interesting, because I think your style has evolved and is now more naturally CAS. Thank you so much for playing along at CASology this week. Looks like you enjoyed it, and I hope you play again soon.
ReplyDeleteOh, this is so sweet!
ReplyDeleteOMG!! Totally LOVING your SWEET Creation!
ReplyDeleteOh, bless your heart, Lindsey, that's a shame you didn't post this. It's PERFECT for what the challenge was all about and you did a winning post for it!! I know you're friend will love getting the updated version in all its CASliciousness!! Hugs, Darnell
ReplyDeleteI am sure your friend loved the first card Lindsey. I do love your remake …what a great job on remaking this card. This was such a fun idea showing how you rethought this card. Love it!
