When I was trying to think of a name for today's card, and a title for today's post, a line from an old commercial came to mind. Please tell me I'm not the only one who remembers, "Less Filling, Tastes Great".
So, for today's Any Hero card, I tried to make up for a lack of layers by adding a bit more texture. As with most of my Any Hero cards, the card below was inspired by this week's OWH Sunday Sketch.

I rotated the sketch to go with a horizontal sentiment. And, since I was going with fewer layers, I cut the backgound dp to maximize the paper embellishment on the right.
Parting Thoughts
Sorry I've been so sporadic with posts lately -- but it's been for lots of good reasons. The months of October and November have brought lots of fun family-related events/activities. Let's see there was a beach getaway followed by a family reunion. This week, there will be 3 separate events celebrating my father-in-law's 90th birthday. When you add these to making some cards for upcoming craft shows and our typical day-to-day activities. Well, let's just say we've been rather busy -- and quite merry. :)
As always, thanks for stopping and happy scrappin'! And, have a great week!

I'd rather be on a beach getaway than make cards. :) Nice Anyhero note!
LOL, yes I DO remember that commercial. This is a very nice CAS design. I especially like the texture the burlap adds. Glad to hear you've been sporadic because you're having fun. :)
Great card, love the added texture with the burlap, a favorite of mine. I so love that you do so many hero cards. True dedication! TFS
Yes, Sybrina, I do remember that commercial. I can't tell you what it was for, but I remember the wording. I really like the texture on your card and your embellishments. Your whole card came together nicely. Glad to see your post. I think we can all relate to having "life" get in the way of our crafting and blogging. Enjoy this week.
