A New ADU Challenge!

Hya friends.
I hope all is well in your world.
The weather is nice and pleasant here for a change.
As usual, we didn't get the predicted snow. Bummer!
Anyway, onto the challenge.

As the title says, this challenge theme is ...
'CAS'
(Clean And Simple)

I don't know about you, but I often struggle with CAS, so these challenges help drag me out of my comfort zone.
Well I've been well and truly dragged with THIS one! LOL

I have used Wendy's cute 'Tall Like You' digi.
It's available to purchase HERE, for a measly £1.50! Bargain!
No Copics were murdered in the making of this card.
The blue plain and spotted digital paper is by Pink Petticoat.
I doodled around the edge of the mat and I hand wrote the sentiment, 'coz I'm an idiot.
I forgot to stamp a sentiment before putting the blue layer on dimensionals! DOH!!!
It was nerve-wracking!  I was convinced I'd duff it up. lol
Very CAS and I will use this image again for new baby cards.

Onto the deets!
This challenge will run until the 15th of March.
Head on over to All Dressed up blog to check out the rest of the teams creations, and why not enter the challenge whilst you are there.

Remember! To enter our challenges, you need to use an All Dressed Up image, or paper.
There are free ones on the blog and the ones in the shop are REALLY reasonable for such quality images!

Lastly, don't forget our Facebook group.
To keep up to date with all the latest ADU news, chat and to share all your lovely creations.

Can't wait to see what you come up with!

Back soon with more projects!
Have a smashing weekend!
I am, 'coz I'm in Derby getting crafty with my pals!

You certainly nailed the CAS theme with this super cute card Viv! The elephant is adorable and I'm glad you had to do the sentiment by hand as I think it looks fab :-)
I love that cut out 2 as well, the whole layout is awesome and so well balanced.
