Join us! It is Clean and Simple (CAS) week at The Paper Players. Think lots of white space, minimal layers and embellishments. Stef is challenging us to create a CAS card that uses our favorite holiday image. You might think FaLaLa is an odd favorite but I have a full size cling background with falala (Essentials by Ellen), an A2 coverplate covered with small Fa La Las (Neat & Tangled), numerous small fa la fa stamp sets, and I have the Fa La La above from The Stamp Market. I seem to seem to have a small obsession with this Christmas song.
For this card, I die cut 1/2" strips from two red and two green cardstocks. I created A2 panels of strips by laying strips one at a time across a Scortape-covered panel. I die cut the coverplate from white cardstock, retaining the die cut letters for a second card. To finish, I stamped a small sub-sentiment, and added several glitter stars. I made six copies of this card.

Enjoy! I am looking forward to your inspired creations in the gallery.

I love the colors you chose for your stripes behind the giant Fa La La, and I can see why you love this die! So fun...and festive :) Love the little star accents too!
Elizabeth, your FaLaLa card is absolutely fantastic! I think the phrase is definitely a top iconic image during Christmas, and this big one, with all the stripes, is simply amazing and so festive! Fabulous card, my dear!
This stripy creation is both stylish and fun! Fabulous card! And I love the use of the term 'sub-sentiment'. :-)
Oh, my gosh! What fun! Bold and modern, with the perfect blingy accents. I LOVE it, Elizabeth! Have a wonderful week!
HOW FUN is this card. Love that you had the patience to cut all those strips to create the beautiful, bold letters. This card makes me smile!
A fabulous die that looks so great in festive stripes! I have a festive earworm now too ;-)
This is a wonderful "falala"! Love the color blocking--it makes for a very cheerful card!
So, you know that I have an earworm now!!! :-). I LOVE this bold, bright, supersized sentiment! Fabulous CAS card.
