Just a Little Note for CASC&S583

 Happy Thursday, all!  You know I like things in threes and when I saw the Clean & Simple Colours & Sketches challenge this week, I was quite happy:


I did a class recently at my neighborhood retirement center and had some leftover pieces from that project, so I used them for my project:


The butterflies were diecut with some Shimmer Pool Party cardstock, then layered on a butterfly-embossed piece of Basic White.  The sentiment is from Poppy Stamps' Whittle Sayings, using an Impression Obsession Small Tags die.  


Here is the original project; I just used two of the single butterflies and trimmed one from the trio for the above card:


I am also entering this at Krafty Chicks, where they're looking for Clean and Simple too!  



Thanks so much for popping in today!  Enjoy it and be blessed!

"But I will bless the person who puts his trust in me.  He is like a tree growing newar a stream and sending out roots to the water.  It is not afraid when hot weather comes, because its leaves stay green; it has no worries when there is no rain; it keeps on bearing fruit."  Jeremiah 17:7-8

I'm loving the embossed butterflies as much as the focal ones! Fabulous cards, LeAnne!

I thought you might like this sketch LeAnne! Your trio of sparkly butterflies are lovely and paired with that embossed background it makes a very pretty CAS card. Perfect for our CC&S sketch this week!
