We have another challenge starting over at Less is More. Our challenge for this week is a color challenge and our colors are "Purple and Gold". Seems like a strange combo...since it was my high school colors it seems a bit old school, but once I started playing around with these colors I had fun!
Here's what I came up for this week...
This is a simple CAS card. I started my cutting out the little rectangle from the top panel of my card.
I simply heat embossed the sentiment. Then die cut my present from some purple patterned paper, and some gold foil paper.
I added foam tape to the top panel and done! Super simple!
What I like most about this design is that you can easily make this into a Christmas card as well!
Here's a close up of the dimension of the card.
Hope you come and join us, we would love to see what you come up with!

Beautiful card. I love the parcel it looks like its just waiting to be opened.
ReplyDeleteThey were MY school colors, too, Susan! I could only think of those garish purple graduation gowns! But I love how you've made it modern and relevant with your framed and fun gift! I hope you are doing well! Hugs, Darnell
ReplyDeleteSorry I'm so late, Susan. This card is right up my street, I have that stitched die and I love it too. Such a wonderful CAS design, a winning layout every time xx
