Simply Clean & Simple (5/2026) - Things that FLY

 Hello my friends and welcome to my blog!

Today I have a card to share for our challenge blog using the CAS (clean & simple) design style. 
Our blog is called Simply Clean & Simple and today's OPTIONAL theme is:
 
 Things that FLY
  

I struggled with what to use for today's challenge then decided to go back through some dies that I haven't used is a very long time ... in fact, I'm not sure if I've EVER used this one!!  But thought it worked well for our optional theme while keeping the over all card CAS.

The die used is Impression Obsession Serendipity Dies - Hot Air Balloons Reverse (sorry ... no longer available) ... not even on Amazon.

    
 

For the background, I used one of the panels in my pack of Blue Knight Stamps 'Night Sky 2 Set'.  A sentiment panel from the TON and my card is complete.  I'll be using this die more often now that I remember I have it lol.
 
 
Remember, our challenge is Anything Goes CLEAN & SIMPLE but we do offer an OPTIONAL theme.  You have until the 28th to share your CAS design into our challenge blog. 

Challenges to share in: 

 Alphabet Challenge - A is for Air (plane, bird, anything in the air) [ends 5/14]
Time Out Challenge #312 - Photo Inspiration [ends 5/13]  Inspired by the sky colors. 
 Little Red Wagon #856 - Anything related to Travel, Skylines, urban scenes, etc. [ends 5/5]

 

Hope to see you at SIMPLY CLEAN & SIMPLE!

As always . . .
