Miss Boo · 10-31-2010, 07:54 PM

What is CAS?
CAS is an acronym for Clean and Simple. Below is the reworded definition

It's all about the design.
* not the technique
* not the tools
* not the embellishments

It's all about the design.
* Uncluttered
* lots of white or open space
* one main focal point

It's all about the design.

Clean & Simple

Here is mine! Thanks for the challenge - I am soooo not a sympathy card maker, but hope this works!

GardenDiva · 11-01-2010, 02:58 AM

Good Morning Jen..............you are absolutely right..........those of us out here in cyberland do not give enough credit to all of the designers for sharing their talent and providing a light to go by.
Thanks to all for giving of yourselves each and every week. I love the CAS cards....they fit me more like a glove then the really elaborate ones. I love to look at the others but, as I actually send my cards, they are not practical to mail.
Keep up the excellent work everyone !!
A big thank you from Central Ohio !!!
Back later to play.

Here is my CLOSE AS A MEMORY.

hobbydujour · 11-01-2010, 03:49 AM

I always find sympathy cards a challenge....maybe it is the frame of mind that I'm in at the time. This was a challenge for me today as well. I know several older people who are not doing well, so this will go into my stash to have on hand.

WITH SYMPATHY
