The Crafty Den: Krafty Chicks challenge #773

Good morning lovely friends. I hope you're all doing ok and having a great week so far. It's time for a new challenge over at Krafty Chicks challenge and this week we are on Week 3; and as always the theme is 'CAS' and Diane is our hostess. I know clean and simple means different things to everyone, but generally we want to see an uncluttered design, lots of open space with little or no embellishments. We hope you are up for the challenge and you will come over and join in the fun with us.

Some time ago I bought a fun die set full of tiny cameras from a craft destash site and I've been itching to use it so decided this was the time to grab it and make a card. I think it's a really fun set. I hope you like it.

Here is my card:

A closer look at the camera:

Plus I decorated the inside:

I began by cutting a white panel 4" x 5 1/4" and lightly ink blended some sea glass ink in the bottom right corner. I added the panel onto my card base with double sided tape. I die cut the camera from black and white card (because initially I wasn't sure what colour I wanted) and cut the detail pieces from silver mirri, yellow, and red card, all from my scraps box. For the rainbow piece I decided to use my Promarkers and drew some lines with a ruler and then die cut that out for the front of the camera. I didn't realise until later that I actually cut the rainbow backwards on the black camera but it was already on my card before I noticed lol! I stamped a sentiment onto some scrap white card and used a sentiment strip die to cut it out. I also die cut the letters for the word smile, again from white card. I was now ready to arrange my pieces. I firstly added the sentiment strip to the bottom of the bottom in the right corner with liquid glue, the camera was added with foam squares and the 'smile' word was added above that with liquid glue. I did also use my shimmer pen over the letters so that they would stand out a little more. No embellishments and the only dimension was a foam square behind the camera, which is very unusual for me! For the inside I cut another white panel and again ink blended the sea glass ink in the bottom right corner. I used the white camera on the inside and added it with liquid glue (the rainbow was in the correct order on this one - typical)! I stamped the sentiment in black ink in the centre and then added the panel to my card base with double sided tape. This card is very CAS for me but I really like how it turned out.

I would like to enter my card into the following challenges:
