Stamp Simply #131 -CAS with Texture

Stamp Simply #131 - March 19th - CAS Texture

Sharon's challenge call: CAS Texture -- Adding texture to cards is fun. Today lets try to add texture, but still keep it clean and simple. Those 2 challenges may seem to be incongruous, but let's try! I think we'll get some pretty results!!! Your texture can come in any form -- embossing, distressing, adding embellishments for dimension -- whatever you like -- just add some fun texture to a CAS creation!!!

This is pretty clean and simple for me. I added texture in the background panel with a Cuttlebug Folder and also used ribbons to make little tabs down the sentiment. A few of the flowers, I cut out from the DP and also popped them up. To create the corner tabs, I simply used a 1" square punch and cut the square on the diagonal. I couldn't resist a few stitch marks. The finished card is 4 3/4" Square.
