Join us! It is Clean and Simple (CAS) week at The Paper Players. Think lots of white space, minimal layers and embellishments. LeAnne is challenging us to create a CAS card that includes things with wheels -- cars, bus, bicycle. My choice of wheels might be a bit less traditional. I choose to create baby cards with die cuts of vintage wood pull toys. I pulled buttons and scrap cardstock from my stash to create these sweet cards.
I made a dozen of these cards for donation to the First Baptist New Mother Initiative at my hometown hospital. First Baptist women put together baby baskets for every new mother, and a personal wish is added to each card.
Check out our fabulous design team. These ladies work hard to inspire you each week. Drop by their blogs and leave them a little love.
Here's a quick recap of our challenge rules:
1. Create a new paper project
2. Upload your creation to your blog with a link back to us and provide a direct link to the post featuring your challenge submission.
3. Please link your card to no more than four challenges in total.
Enjoy! I am looking forward to your inspired creations in the gallery.

Elizabeth, this is so fun! I love that you made baby cards for this theme. Any Mama would cherish this special card. Love the background and all the toys. Esp. the whale-- unexpected! Have a fantastic week!
Your card is so cute & I'm sure every mother really appreciated it! I love how you strung the animals together with twine & used buttons for wheels! Genius! Thanks for sharing!
Eeeek---this is SO cute! And how sweet that you made multiples to share! Those little pull-toys are adorable. I love that you thought outside the wheel box, too!
From the sweet patterned paper to the button wheels, these pull toys are adorable. How wonderful that you created a dozen of these cards to donate to your hometown hospital. They are perfect! Have a wonderful week!
