CAS141: Sketch by PH in VA (10/24/11): Clean and Simple Cards

Miss Boo · 10-23-2011, 08:07 PM

What is CAS?
CAS is an acronym for Clean and Simple.

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

Thanks Jen and thanks for the sketch, Patricia!

Here's my Thank You Kindly

PH in VA · 10-24-2011, 07:35 AM

Hi everyone!!! Y'all are posting some really nice cards already!

Since it's my sketch I hope I'm not out of line for saying this - but since the stripes are an integral part of the sketch, I'd like to see them kept as part of the design of your cards. And it's basically a one-layer card! (GASP - I know a lot of people find one-layer cards a challenge - myself included!)

mamaxsix · 10-24-2011, 07:39 AM

Great sketch! Thanks for another great challenge. Here's my Bonsai Thanks

I'm loving all the creative ways the stripes have been incorporated!

bfinlay · 10-24-2011, 09:59 AM

My stripes are sideways and sponged

Sorry, Patricia, I didn't see your reminder till I'd already uploaded!!! I did keep the tilt of the top panel!
