Clean and Simple Redo



You will probably recall a Clean and Simple card I made using Circle Circus here. Well, the challenge this week over on Splitcoast was to do a make-over on a former CAS card. Since I wanted to keep this card SUO, I just changed up the colors and kept everything else the same. I used a retired in-color Cool Caribbean...oh how I wish they'd bring this one and Soft Sky back! Oh, and I coupled that with Always Artichoke. Since I didn't have a ribbon to match, I just used the current In-Color Bermuda Bay. I think it worked swell!

Off-topic, just had to take a snapshot of Catie's happiness seeing the tree decorated by her big brother Harrison. Just love it! I *ALMOST* cried. :P



Uggh, seeing these pictures makes me want to cry. I'm not posting again till I get my Photoshop!! See you in a day, LOL! :)

Lovely card! And I love the pic, too! My daughter is really into the tree and ornaments this year. She even wants Santa to bring her ornaments!

I love this card, Melissa! So clean and simple and eye catching.

Adorable picture, too. I completely understand those "mother's tears" moments. That's the best part of taking pictures... you'll tear up again someday when you see it again and remember!

Melissa! Beautiful little Catherine (okay, okay... Catie) looks SO MUCH like you! She's your little clone! That's a compliment for both mother AND daughter.
