Hello, Friends! Marilyn here with this week's Tuesday Card. Today I created a CAS (clean and simple) card. My tip for you today is this: Make your cards a little generic, that way they can be used for multiple occasions. For example, my card's sentiment simply say's "Celebrate Everyday." This card is now eligible to be used as a Fall, Thanksgiving or even a Birthday Card.
