Welcome to Becca's Heart for Creativity blog!
purpose: this posting features my newest DT project for My Time To Craft challenge blog which I've managed for over 2.5 years and been part of the team for at least 5 years
when: #538 CAS (Clean and Simple) style theme starts July 12 for 13 days of competition; clean and simple has several definitions in paper-making; some want white on white with a touch of color or another neutral and minimal; some want 1 layer application on the base such as stickers, washi tape, stamping, etc.; and some will take more color as long as there is lots of empty/clean space; percentage/ratio of clean space also varies
what: Sympathy card (with white, ivory, gray, and black neutrals)
notes: How is this card CAS? All of the ivory cardstock is empty space; the upper right corner of the center white panel is empty space; elements are minimal (2 pieces of washi tape, 1 tall thin die-cut and 2 lines of small print sentiment...no ribbons/fru-fru; no excessive colors or print/patterns; no excessive layers
1. ivory/cream cardstock scrap panel = Neenah
2. white cardstock scrap panel = Pen + Gear
3. washi tape = ?; received in a box from another craft artisan
4. stamp sentiment = also received from another crafter in an unmarked clear zip bag
5. the flower die-cut = Simple Stories' The Simple Life ephemera
6. dimensional foam tape used under the white center panel to lift it up and offer depth for the minimal CAS layout
