Karens Doodles 18th Challenge


Time for a new challenge at Karen's Doodles UK and this week we're going 'clean and simple'.  Not a huge stretch for me, but I always think real 'CAS' has to involve lots of white space, something that I just CAN'T do!  I tried, I had the best of intentions, but I caved and this is what I ended up with.

I've used this super cute Peekaboo Boy image, coloured with promarkers - the 'peekaboo' sentiment is computer generated, printed onto the image.  The paper is from the K&Co Small Wonders Boy pad, cardstock from my stash.  Added a Craftwork Cards sentiment, mounted on a nellie snellen die, and some Papermania buttons to finish.  Really simple card, but I quite like it.

I'm also entering my card for the following challenges:
Hopefully naughty blogger will be playing nicely today - I think most of us had a problem with comments disappearing yesterday, fingers crossed it's working again today!

I love it! What a fab image, this looks very CAS to me so i think you nailed it! My theory is that as long as you don't have to prune yor way through to the image then it counts as CAS!! Love the papers and the dinky little buttons, very cute!
