I've never uploaded a CAS challenge card as I'm CAS challenged. I thought I would try this one out as it looked interesting. I combined it with the color challenge this week (Ballet Blue, Cameo Coral and Garden Green). I really had to hold myself back from adding layers and additional embellishments. I struggle more with these cards than the more difficult ones. I also couldn't get it to photograph well. It kind of got washed out. Looks better IRL!
Thanks for taking the time to look and if you have a moment, let me know what you think!

There is nothing 'washed out' about this Pam - it is lovely!! Love how you combined it with the CC - well done, looks like you are used to doing these CAS cards. I am CAS challenged too - white card just keeps calling me to fill it - funny isn't it, as I love everyone elses...I guess one day I will take on the challenge!!! Love this - you are amazing my friend!!! Thank you for sharing Pam!

Well I think you rocked both challenges! I struggle with CAS but this is fantastic. I also love how you used the colors... just a touch of each! White is a great space especially for bold colors... I love it!

Hey there! A quick gallop through the gallery and I stumble on another 'Pam' card. I'd say you're pretty darn good at CAS! Cute card! And nesties (since they kinda do what punches do) are moving steadily up on my 'wishful needs' list thanks to what I see you doing with them on your cards...

This is so cute Pam!! You did a fabulous CAS and you managed to combine challenges!!! Love all the little scalloped circles and that yummy wide sheer ribbon!!! You're better than me, I don't think I'd be able to stop myself adding half a dozen extra layers!! Hee hee!!! Well done my Bestest Friend!!!

Pam, your card is utterly charming! Plus the fact that you did multiple challenges, phew!!! IMO, that color challenge was definitely challenging, but you carried it off beautifully! Wonderful card, gal! tfs
