What is CAS?
CAS is an acronym for Clean and Simple.
There are different ways people view CAS. It is very subjective. There is no list of rules that will fit everyone�s personal definition. The following are possible guidelines, only. Please do not feel afraid of playing in the CAS challenge or debate with yourself if you�ve created a CAS card. If it is a CAS card to you, put CAS in the keyword box.
1. Clean: the design is uncluttered with lots of white or open space. Simple: having a clear focal point without a lot going on to detract from it.
OR
2. simple in design regardless of the number of embellishments or how long it takes to color, stitch or to use a special technique
OR
3. can be copied and mass produced fairly quickly� usually without a lot of coloring, layers, embellishments, tools and/or techniques
OR
4. any combination of the above
************************************************** *******
This week, we are using a greeting as the main focal point of our cards.
Choose your favorite quote, verse, or saying. It doesn't have to be stamped. It can be computer printed, a sticker, a rub-on, etc.
Have fun!
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!

Okay...I LOVE this challenge...I'm feeling very "into stamping" today, as I got to use my FAVORITE family "quote/saying." It's something my grandfather used to say to my grandmother, and now, Mark says to me. It's so incredibly wonderful, and I tear up every morning when he says it....
Oh my goodness! I'm jumping up and down!!!! *falling over...thud*
What a great surprise Thank you so much
Congratulations, Emily your card for the 2nd challenge is AWESOME!
And Denise! Girl, CONGRATS! I know you will be a great Co-Coordinator with Jen! You two will make a WONDERFUL Team
Well, since it's way after midnight here, I'm gonna wait and work on my card for this week's challenge in the morning.....ummm....in about 6 hours! hahahaha
I can't wait to look at all your gorgeous creations in the gallery!

Congratulatiopns to all the ladies and their accomplishments!
Did a card for today's challenge, Jen, but I'm not totally satisfied with my effort. I have a VERY busy day away from home today, so I'm hoping I can make another CAS card later. Thanks for the challenge!
Jen, I'm so glad that you have a helper/co-host now. You seem to put so much work into this CAS stuff, so I'm glad someone can help take a little off your plate. Thanks, Denise!
Congrats to the new DT. Hope you have tons of fun!
Thanks to all the past DT. Your work continues to inspire and teach me!
By the way, the DT search was super fun again, Jen! Lots of great ideas and challenges!
Now off to look at this week's gallery and hopefully go do the challenge!

The challenging part of this challenge will be deciding what quote to use--I write one a day on my whiteboard at school, so I have quite a collection of favorites!
