Default CAS06 - Inspired by Robeez

What is CAS?
The idea of CAS is to keep it Clean and Simple.


Definition: A clean and simple card has limited layers and sometimes just a card base. It leaves a lot of "open space". It uses little or no embellishments. Any techniques should be the old standard everyday kind like sponging, distressing and piercing. Limit the number of tools you use. Any colored images should be small and quick. Don't go overboard on tons of punches and embossing. CAS cards should be easy and quick.


This week is an inspiration challenge! You can use anything you find on the Robeez site. I just ask that you link the page to the comments section of your card when uploading.

Keyword: CAS06

Samples to help you get started with ideas:

Angela's Card
Angela's Inspiration

Carolina's Card
Carolina's Inspiration

Susan's Card
Susan's Inspiration

Jen's Card - Jen just wants to say that this is a CAS card... no lengthy paper piecing... It's a Martha Stewart cupcake punch!
Jen's Inspiration


CAS06 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!


Need help linking a card? Follow these instructions!

1. Open 2 windows: One window for your card and one for this thread.
2. In this thread, click on reply and type anything you want to show before the link.
3. Got to your card window. Highlight the address for your card. (It says www. splitcoaststampers.com/gallery/showphoto..... and so on)
4. Click EDIT. Click COPY
5. Go back to this thread. Click PASTE.
You’re done!

I'm giggling over the comments my cupcake card is getting. I didn't paper piece anything... It's a fun & super fast technique.... Martha Stewart cupcake punch.

I can't wait to check out the Robeez site. My kids both lived in those 'til they were at least 2 years old!

Off to play...

What a fun challenge! I'm sure I will be doing more...it was so hard to pick just one item for inspiration!

Here is my Robeez Pocket card

Inspired by these shoes

Thanks once again for the great challenge, Miss Boo. All the samples were awesome!!

This is my first CAS challenge that I have done. There certainly a lot to choose from on the Robeez site!

My CAS06 Robeez Guitar was based on this pair of shoes.

I wanted to do something a little different but I had to make it quick because I've got to get DS to the dentist. When I get back I'll look at everyone's cards. I may even do another one. Anyway, here's my card:

Thanks for the great inspiration challenge, Jen! Lots of cute things on the Robeez site. Here is my card:
http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/ga...&ppuser=143903
I combined it with today's TLC. The ribbon frame may not look simple, but it only took a couple of minutes to cut the slots and the rest is the same as tying on a ribbon! Super quick and easy, but different!

Here is another one for today's challenge. I think it is still a CAS card, but it took forever doing the ribbon frame technique! I'm not happy with the ribbon but I'm going with it anyway since I spent over an hour on it!! Here is my card.
