Tuesday Throwdown

Hello, and welcome to another Sherrod Studio Tuesday Throwdown! This week, the design team was challenged to create a Clean and Simple card. I'm not very good at CAS cards...but that's why they call this a 'challenge'! So, without further ado, here is my CAS card:


I'm not sure WHY I picked all white...maybe it's because I'm a little stir-crazy with all the snow that we've had (we're getting ready for our 3rd blizzard of the winter coming tonight!) Great, just what we need- MORE snow! Anyway, back to the card- I used GP110 white cardstock for the entire card. I embossed one layer using my Cuttlebug and the Paisley embossing folder, then I embossed the other layer using the Dotted Swiss embossing folder. I stamped the girl duck image from Pond Friends using Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored her feathers, beak, and feet only. I envisioned her wearing a white eyelet dress and hat. I added yellow Glitter Adornments from My Favorite Things using gem glue to each corner of the Dotted Swiss panel. So, what do you think? Clean and simple enough or too much?? I can't wait to hear your opinions!
Hop on over to the other Sherrod Studio design team members' blogs to see their CAS creations. Links to their blogs can be found in my side bar.
**Remember- for the entire month of February, I will donate $1.00 per comment to the American Cancer Society's Relay for Life in memory of my niece, Julie. See here...
