CAS Style

I struggle with that. Clean and simple. Yet... you'll find me entering challenges with cards I think are CAS. I shared with a FB group of friends a card recently AFTER I entered it into a CAS challenge and asked... "Is this CAS?" Their answer was overwhelmingly... no. One of them was nice to point out that it was CAS for me. lol Gee! :) So anyway... this card is NOT CAS. This challenge asked to use embellishments and for once... I really struggled with that! I think it might have been cause of the BG paper... or the sketch... or cause I was working on it at 2 AM. ONE of those reasons... I have no idea which one... lol ;)

Ssooo, here's my card:
