This weeks CAS-ual Friday Challenge is to use Colour Blocks. So I had a play and this is what I came up with. This is one of my favourite colour combinations… you may have noticed… Mostly I just like anything bright! I have also rediscovered ‘the brad’ I can’t remember the last time I used one, but here it is again, in all it’s understated glory!
Supplies; Paper: A4 White Hopsack Cardstock, Bazzill – Sunbeam, Swimming Pool, American Crafts – Charcoal. Ink: Memento – Tuxedo Black, London Fog. Stamps: Paper Smooches – Sentiment Sampler. Accessories: Fiskars Stamp Press, Artstamps Brush Marker – Grey, Obscure grey brad, Liquid Glue, Foam Dimensionals, Pop – up Glue dot.
This is a really nice card and the way you put the argyle background together is superb.

The colors are so awesome and sophisticated! Beautiful CAS card, Therese! So glad that you join on the fun with us at CAS-ual Fridays!
The argyle background looks amazing Therese and I love the shadow effect you created with the sentiment 🙂
lol! “The Brad” sounds like a Stone Age tool…then again, I have several drawers of brads just sort of sitting there. It’s funny because it’s true 🙂
I really love the shadowing of the sentiment & the INCREDIBLE argyle – what precision!
Awesome! Love the colours and how it’s popped up and the brad is the perfect touch. 🙂
Love the little shadowed sentiment!
I seriously LOVE this! I love the clean and graphic-ness!!! FABULOUS!

Oh wow your giant argyle is awesome, clever idea for colour blocking too. Love the shadow stamped sentiment 🙂

LOVE how you used the argyle–a really fantastic CAS design! The shadowed sentiment and single brad add the perfect finishing touch!
Shut the front door!! Seriously?!! This is out of this world amazing and brilliant – be still my heart!! Thanks so much for playing with us at CAS-ual Fridays. Looking forward to seeing more of your beautiful work!
Great background – that is such a clever idea! Your shadowing of the sentiment is something I would never think to do! Such a cool and well executed idea. Brads….like you I haven’t used one in ages, but I think we all have a stack of them hiding in our craft space!
