Hello! I am sharing a winter-themed, CAS (and quick and easy) Thank You card. I needed to get this card made quickly as a thank you for holiday gifts.
I cut the letters with Lawn Cuts alphabet dies and placed them onto the colored squares, cut with one of the smaller square dies in a Spellbinders Nestabilities set. I used Echo Park patterned paper for the background. My first take used two patterned papers, one for the background and for the frame (larger than the design I ended up using) around the letters. While the patterned papers looked good together, the pattern around the letters made the card too busy and took the emphasis away from the sentiment. I pulled the card apart and found a background paper that carried the winter theme on its own and cut the frame from white cardstock.
I created an almost identical card previously on which I popped the letters up with foam adhesive. It is a good route to take for some dimension, but it takes a little more time.
