I love the result of this clean and simple card (CAS). The ironic thing is that it took me 4 stamp sets to achieve this look.
Anyone care to guess what 4 sets I used? Find out at the end of this post (no peeking!) HINT: These little party hats are meant to be "worn" on another part of the body.
Splitcoaststampers was where I found inspiration for this card. The CAS challenge for today was to create a birthday card. If you've never created a clean and simple card, I highly recommend trying it out.
To date, I think my best cards have been what I call Kwik & Kool.
Short post for today because I want time to browse my catalog. I have yet to press the order button because I'm trying hard to choose only the items I REALLY love.

Kris, This is amazing! Now I see what you did, but I would never have guessed that the party hats weren't all from the same set. It's wonderful to have vision--and you've got it! I also love the simplicity of the card.
