Would you consider this CAS?

We are having a nice gentle rain this morning.  My DH is dismayed because he had both golf and lawn mowing on his agenda.  I had some weeding on my agenda, so when it stops my job will be much easier.  For now, it can keep raining while I do my blogpost.
 
Between loads of wash yesterday, I was working on a very special card for my grand-nephew's Confirmation on July 5th.  I decided to use solid papers in white, blues and grays for this card with a CTMH Artiste cricut cut frame around a free digital Bible verse from Word Art Wednesday.


I added some corner accents from the same cricut cartridge to the inside with a computer generated sentiment.  The card base is actually a light gray with a white embossed panel on the front.
I am hoping this qualifies as CAS since I am entering it in the CAS on Sunday Challenge #60 and have followed their color scheme.
I am also going to enter the card in these other challenges:
Word Art Wednesday Challenge #188 - Anything Goes
Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge - Favorite Technique or Product
(I've used my favorite embossing folder by Stampin Up.)
Fantastic Tuesday Challenge #90 - Anything Goes w/ Twist: Frame
Crafty Cardmakers Challenge #141 - For a Man/Boy
Glitter n Sparkle Challenge #141 - Include a Die Cut
Dragonfly Dreams Challenge - Special Occasion


I think the rain has stopped and we now are experiencing the muggies.  I really dislike the muggies!

  3. This is my favorite kind of CAS, Debi -- really simple design which looks much more complex than it really is. Fantastic embossing and I love the gemstone cross!

  6. I would consider it CAS, and I will tell you why. My form of CAS is different than another person's form of CAS because we ALL craft differently. So, "toning it down" or going simply has a different starting point for everyone. As a person who likes to put all sorts of things on every card, keeping it simple doesn't come easy for me. So, I think you did a great job. Going CAS is all in how you design, and I think you did a great job. Thanks SO MUCH for sharing your talents with us by playing along this week. I love your art, and SO appreciate you sharing with us. Have a wonderful week,
