Clean and Simple is the theme this week and Sugar Pea Designs is the sponsor of the Tuesday Throwdown Challenge. I've used a set of dies from Sugar Pea Designs called Stitched Autumn Icons.
I've posted a closeup of each of the die cuts so you can see the stitching and fine details. There is a separate die for the pumpkin and stem, top and bottom of the acorn and wings and body of the bat.
I have a problem with CAS cards. Sometimes, I don't know when to stop. On the first card, I think it lost it's CAS look when I added the sponging. I tried really hard with the next 2 cards to keep it clean.

My teamies have worked very hard to inspire you to join this week's Tuesday Throwdown Challenge. Please check out their projects and visit their blogs for more details.
And I hope the products we've used from Sugar Pea Designs inspire you to visit their store. where you'll find stamps and dies.

Wow, Debi! Gorgeous CAS cards! That first one is still CAS, no worries about the sponging. Still fits the CAS definition. I love them all - yo've got some great dies! Please tell me - what is the embossing folder on the first card? I love it - haven't seen it around.
