It's all about the design.
* Uncluttered

~~~CAS WEEKLY CHALLENGE~~~
March 14 Technique Challenge: Out-of-the-Box
Here's a sample by bfinlay who happens to be this week's featured stamper! This is the card she made for the CAS challenge 2 weeks ago.
Please also see our design team samples for more inspiration. There are many different ways to achieve this look!
Here's an explanation found on TLC247: This technique works great when you have an image that you want to extend past the edge of the frame you want to use. Whether it's a flower, a tree, a turkey, using Nestabilities, or Coluzzels, you can create interest and drama to your projects. (This link includes a pdf file tutorial.
KEYWORD: CAS110
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:
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!
