Greetings, Friends of the Farm! It’s time for a new Garden Variety Tuesday challenge, and this week, we’re keeping it Clean and Simple (also known as CAS). 

So, what makes a card “clean and simple”? For one thing, it’s an easy card to reproduce. There aren’t lots of layers; it’s often a one layer card, but can sometimes is two layers. There’s only one focal point, and little or no embellishments. It contains up to three colors, or possibly three different papers.

I chose “Cheeky Lessons” for today’s card. I kept my paper choices simple, only using three, but one solid and another subtle pattern for the mat.

My main image is the focal point of the card, and I kept embellishments to a minimum, with just the ribbon separating the two sections (and those three brads in the corner, which probably don’t need to be there). I stamped my sentiment on the solid paper so that I didn’t have to add another layer.

Thanks so much for stopping by today! Don’t forget that we’ll be previewing the August TGF release next week…I hope you’ll celebrate with us!

Hugs,
