Addicted to Stamps CAS

It's time for another challenge at Addicted to Stamps and this week's challenge is Clean and Simple.  My favorite type of challenge!  I used the sketch from Unscripted Sketches.

SK 169 US 200
I chose the Swallowtail stamp to use because it is so large that it is difficult NOT to make a CAS card with it!
 
The large butterfly image made this card SOOOOO simple. I just stamped the butterfly and then cut it up into rectangles, adhered it on some cardstock, added the sentiment, doily, rhinestones and DSP and I was done!  I really like the brick effect.  It adds some interest but still allows the card to be pretty clean and simple.

Stamp Sets: Perfectly Penned, Swallowtail
Cardstock: Pool Party, Whisper White
Ink: Chocolate Chip, Pretty in Pink
Accessories: Doily, Rhinestones, Dimensionals, Subtles DSP Stack
