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:
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!

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".
What fun I am having today.....It is a holiday here in Ontario!! Yeah!! I seldom get to spend this much time crafting....and such a FUN challenge today.
I made three cards:
