I was stalking the gallery to see what tomorrow's CAS challenge would be (is that bad?) when I spotted Mary's sweet card in red and white. I knew just what I wanted to do and ran to my craft room to make a matching card for my Z Becky Brown purse insert. I thought this would be a great way to present it as a gift. I did not realize until after the fact that I should have used red ink for the sentiment. Challenge police? Am I OK?! FYI, this is my first one layer card! TFL!
Here is the purse.

Nice card! I love your images all in red. For your first one-layer card, this is a hit! BTW, if I'm not mistaken, I think you can usually use neutrals as long as they don't over-power the challenge colors.

You better keep those one layered cards coming. You are mighty good at them it appears. I love your purse too. Christmas is when I carry my Z Becky Brown purse. I better get it out now that December is here.

You don't normally think CAS and Collage in the same thought, but this really works! And I don't think the challenge police will care one bit about the black sentiment.

I love the purse! That is so cool. And your card is perfect to give with it. The sentiment should definitely be in black... it goes with the purse ;) Great job on your first one layer card!
