Krafty Chicks #647 GD inspiration project for Week 3 January 2023 with CAS theme

 Welcome to Becca's Heart for Creativity blog!

My heart is happy to be able to share my 3rd Guest Chick/Designer opportunity with Krafty Chicks Challenge Blog!

Krafty Chicks #647 has a CAS or Clean and Simple theme

for Week 3 of January 2023. 

(January 19-25th)

It is SO DIFFICULT for my left-handed, right brain to minimize for a card. Towards the end of 2022 I've been less panicked about doing a CAS style but I still have some nerves and doubt. 

Even with this one for KCCB! I worried and stewed over every little decision. 

The wood heart with gold foil dots was my biggest stressor--do I include it or not?

My best friend since about 1st grade really likes neutrals for both her home and her clothes. So this was pieced together for her for Valentine's Day. 

Vendor notes:

a. the floral die-cut, 3 scraps, A2 white card base and the sentiment 'label' are from Simple Stories card kit

b. the wood heart, I think, is an American Craft company/division

c. the tan cardstock background panel is from stash

Easy peasy for the front. Clean and Simple style-wise, the upper right corner was kept open and the lower left corner has some curved space around the heart. Embellishments are restricted to the wood heart and the little accent cluster at the top left. That's it. Even the color palette is kept to almost all neutrals.
