Greetings Stamping Friends. Today I would like to share with you a card I made from the Fall Flower Collection from the Fred She Said Store. This is the Aster. Don't you just love this card style....well I did too. I found this here on SCS from Cher2008 and her beautiful card here(Birdie SWEET!! by cher2008 at Splitcoaststampers. I thought this was a lovely way to showcase this amazing flower from Fred She Said.
This is about as close to a Clean and Simple Card that I think I am going to get!!! lol I used the Spellbinders Fleur de Lis Die, Cuttlebug embossing folders, pearls, and sizzx corner dies and some stitching and stickles and that was it.
This card only took me a couple of hours...I am on a roll pumping them out now!!! lol Thanks for stopping by and I sure do appreciate your comments!!!

This is your CAS card?? Ha ha! It's just not in your genes, I think, Carol. What it is, is a gorgeous late summer ode to a beautiful flower, and I adore all that embossing you've done. Terrific!

Beautifully framed and coloured and sparkled flowers! The embossed panels on the sides are lovely with the pearls in the flower centers. Great card.

So, that's clean and simple Bearzi style, huh? My gosh Bearzi, you couldn't make a CAS card if you tried. If it doesn't take at least 8 hours, you'd feel like you didn't create anything. I do agree that less is more on this fantastic card though as the flower is SO, SO GORGEOUS that it needs to be the focal point. I love it when you make blue flowers and blue cards. They are always so GORGEOUS!! Of course, I love blue and purple, so there you go!! TFS your beautiful work!!
