CAS(E) this sketch...the First Challenge!

This is my second post today.  It's just a short
scroll down for the blog hop!

The day is finally here for the first CAS(E) this sketch! challenge.  Here's the first sketch...


Can you see the Clean And Simple (CAS) possibilities?  Remember that the sketch is a guideline.  You can flip it, rotate it, change the shapes...it's just inspiration!  But keep it CAS!

Here's how I was inspired...

Happy Harlequin
The fun on this card is the patterns.  There's so much wonderful white space but the fun patterns keep it interesting!
Be sure to click over to the CAS(E) this sketch! blog to see how the other design team members were inspired.  Then try it yourself.  Just create a new card (don't use more than 3 other challenges), be sure your blog post has a link to the CAS(E) this sketch blog, then link it up.  We would love to see your work!
