CAS Challenge #4 - Accenting with Dots
This week we are accenting our CAS cards with dots. Whether you use a piercer or a marker, they are great additions to bring bring balance to a card or highlight a focal image.
Yes: Piercing, dots made with markers that looks like piercing
No: Cuttlebug dots, dotted patterned paper, pop up dots (You can use these, but they shouldn't be considered your accented dots on your card. Use a paper piercer or marker.)
What is CAS?
The idea of CAS is to keep it Clean and Simple.
Definition: A clean and simple card has limited layers and sometimes just a card base. It leaves a lot of "open space". It uses little or no embellishments. Any techniques should be the old standard everyday kind like sponging, distressing and piercing. Limit the number of tools you use. Any colored images should be small and quick. Don't go overboard on tons of punches and embossing. CAS cards should be easy and quick.
KEYWORD: CAS04
Samples to help you get started with ideas:
Carolina's Card
Susan's Card
Angela's Card
Jen's Card
CAS04 Gallery
Many of you have been PMing me about the location of the CAS challenge. New challenges start here and then get their own forum when we see that it will be successful. I think we're on the right track! I'm loving this and I can tell you are loving it too! Hopefully soon we'll have our own sub-forum with the other weekly challenges ;)
Uploading: Remember the keyword is without spaces. Use a comma between keywords with a space after each comma.
If you are new to the challenges, please feel free to do this one or ANY of the challenges at any time. There is no time limit. They are not races to see who can do one first, nor are they contests of any sort. All the challenges are simply to provide inspiration and to get us stamping!
Need help linking a card? Follow these instructions!
1. Open 2 windows: One window for your card and one for this thread.
2. In this thread, click on reply and type anything you want to show before the link.
3. Got to your card window. Highlight the address for your card. (It says www. splitcoaststampers.com/gallery/showphoto..... and so on)
4. Click EDIT. Click COPY
5. Go back to this thread. Click PASTE.
You�re done!

Question about the Challenge
Are we to only use paper piercing or markers or anything with dots? For example paper that has dots or a swiss dots CB folder?

Just piercing or markers for the dots. Good question. ;)

I made my card during all of this discussion, so I didn't catch this part of it all but I did place a few dots with a Spica pen.

This was a good challenge for me; I don't use my paper piercer often enough.

Here's mine. I can't believe I got to upload my card on Monday - snow day so no work day.

They are dimensionals to pop up a layer. You can use them, but they shouldn't be considered the dots on your card. You should be using a piercer or marker to make dots.

My clean and simple with a agonizing touch of piercing! Not one of my strong points for techniques!
