While these one layer cards take less than 5-10 minutes to make, there is a challenge of sorts. The placement of your image, sentiment etc are important. You can have a terrible OLC, or a well balanced, pleasing to the eye card. Just ask the one layer card guru, Susan, over at Simplicity blog - she'll tell you, in fact check out this and this. SHE GIVES LESSONS on them! (well kind of - hints and statements anyway :)) Told ya, there really is a thought process for these fun cards.
Meanwhile, the challenge today over at Styles Ink One Layer Wednesday Challenge is a baby card. Perfect! One of my co-workers is pregnant! Because she is new pg and doesn't know the sex, I went with a soft, neutral green. I dug out my Stampin Up I'm Here set, and I used the fun technique of striping (with copics) my ribbon. Yep, stripes work for a baby.
I am working on a few other cards [for today] so I will probably be back. Thanks for stopping by~

Quintessential images...love the cuteness..
Great idea...this is so sweet!
Love the green.. Very sweet little pink foot too!

what a great CAS baby card design Vicki! love the stamps you used!
This is really lovely - I do like the little foot and the alphabet stamp. The ribbon is fab - you drew the stripes on yourself? Fab!
This EXACTLY what I was looking for. I knew it as soon as I saw it. Thanks for the idea. I have a baby shower this weekend that I need to get a card ready for.
Wonderful! I love the layering of the images. :)
Super cute card! Love the alphabet over the footprint! I am glad OLW is back too! It was they that inspired me to do CAS cards.
