CAS107 - Make Your Own Background (2/21/11)
Before we get started this week, we have an announcement! Somehow February has been zipping by! And that means we are looking for a spring design team! Everyone is welcome. I hope to see all the weekly stampers with their card in the gallery. One card only please.
You can find all the information and first challenge HERE.
~~~CAS WEEKLY CHALLENGE~~~
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
~~~CAS WEEKLY CHALLENGE~~~
February 21
Technique: Make your own background.
KEYWORD: CAS107
It's also great to add the keyword: CAS so that you're in two galleries.
Leave some love for our tremendous & devoted design team. Here are some samples to help you get started:
Winter Design Team
Birgit's Card
Cindy's Card
Nancy's Card
Hostesses/Coordinators
Denise's Card
Boo's Card
Guest Designers
mybearybest
mamamostamps
CAS107 Gallery
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!

2. In this thread, click on reply and type anything you want to show before the link.
3. Go to your card window. Highlight the address for your card. (It says www. splitcoaststampers.com/gallery/photo..... and so on)
4. Click EDIT. Click COPY

A fun and easy challenge, Jen. I make my own bg DPs many times, but really don't do it too much on my CAS cards....I have trouble making them simple, anyway! : ) I tried to keep my elements to a minimum since I had a busy bg. Thanks for another fun "monday Morning Starter".

Mine was inspired by today's weather, because it's actually raining instead of snowing!

Hi Everyone,
I haven't entered a CAS for a long time but have been lurking, until I saw this challenge and it's just up my street.
I haven't made this for the challenge but I think it fits the brief.
So HERE is my card. I love to make my own backgrounds when I can. __________________ Regards Sue
