Simply Clean & Simple (7/2026) - Birthday

 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:
 
 Birthday
  

 Over time, I have truly learned to enjoy creating CAS style cards.  
Believe it or not, I used to struggle with this design style as I always thought I needed 'more' to make my cards stand out ... hence, making a CAS designed card look 'incomplete' to me.  I actually applied for a CAS DT spot a few years back to force myself to work more with this style of designing.
 
Today I've used a 'cloud stencil' for my background, the Paper Studio balloon stickers and a sentiment from an Altenew stamp set called 'Birthday Greetings'. 

I hope you like it!

  2. This looks amazing! Love the cloud stenciling -- so perfect -- and the balloons are great stickers. They've surely escaped from a fun outdoor birthday celebration in a backyard or park down below. Happy!
