I had a couple of ideas for flowers with Karen's bright and summery selection of colors but opted play around with some ideas for thank you notes. My husband's retirement party was last week and I needed some that weren't so flowery. At first I thought that this would be too hard to make in multiples but once I did the detail in black and layered it over Granny Apple Green, I only had to add in three pieces.
There are so many possiblities with these colors - I hope you can play along!

Perfect design choice, Chris! And perfect use of this week's colors for this wonderful CAS thank you card! As an aside, I was thinking of you when I brayered the white ink on my embossing folder yesterday. Your imaginative use of white ink has really inspired me!

Chris, this is one impressive CAS design! Super idea! I don't know how you pull these CAS designs off without making them looking bare but you DO IT! Maybe if I keep looking at them your talent will rub off! Wink, wink!
