Winners Announced: CAS Challenge DT Search -> Winter 09/10
The New DESIGN TEAM
hobbywoman (Julie)
k dunbrook (Karen)
Kristin Moore
Congrats ladies! I can't wait to see what ideas and creations you will share with us during the next three months!
For everyone who submitted cards: Thank you for continuing to support CAS! Without you, there would be no need for a design team every season. You're awesome! And I know you're disappointed. I've been there myself many times. The scores were really close... just like I expected. Don't give up! We will be doing this again in February for the Spring season. (Can you believe it's going to be 2010 already?!?)
************************************************** *******
It seems a little early, but since we have a long holiday weekend here in the states at the end of the month, I'm starting our DT search early. ;)
Please read the directions. If you find any obvious mistakes or have questions, please send a friendly PM.
Here's what's happening:
1. I will post 3 challenges: sketch, inspiration, & theme.
2. You can do any or all of the challenges. Combining challenges is allowed!
3. You can make as many cards as you like. Please post them with the listed keywords... and in this thread just in case the gallery is being finicky.
(Since the keywords are long, consider copying/pasting.)
4. You will have until Sunday, November 29 at noon (your time zone) to upload your cards.
5. Design team members must be able to post challenge sample cards on Sunday nights between 10:00 - 11:00 PM EST.
6. Having experience posting threads is not mandatory, but it is helpful. We can teach you. (This would be needed if I am unable to do it for some unexpected reason.)
7. You should be a regular CAS player to participate. This caused some concern last time. Don't over-think this. ;)
CHALLENGES and KEYWORDS
You have 2 sketch choices. They have the same keyword.
Sketch Challenge #1: Keyword CASDT09Winter01
The sketch is based on a card made by LateBlossom.
Sketch Challenge #2: Keyword CASDT09Winter01
This sketch is also based on a card made by LateBlossom
Inspiration Challenge
Bronner's Christmas Store in Frankenmuth, Michigan
Keyword CASDT09Winter02
It's a year round Christmas store with a lot of history. It now offers "Hallmark" holidays, too. This place is huge! It has even become a tourist attraction. (I live about 2 hours away!)
Be prepared to browse awhile! There is something for everyone.
Christmas Inspiration - Start here.
Other Seasonal Items - Start here.
Theme Challenge: Keyword CASDT09Winter03
Winter Wonderland
You may interpret this as you wish. It just excludes holidays.
More Details
1. The challenges close on Sunday, November 29 at noon your time.
2. The past & current DT members have been invited to help choose the new Design Team.
3. We are expecting a large turn-out because so many wonderful stampers have discovered the fun craft of clean & simple stamping! And we have a larger number of judges which will take time to coordinate. The new team will be notified no later than Saturday, December 5, and given the first challenge for Monday, Dec. 7. After that, the new DT will have time to plan the rest of the season. After all new DT members have been notified, I will reveal the winners in this DT challenge thread.
4. The Winter Design Team season will run from Monday, December 7, 2009 - Monday, February 22, 2010
5. Please remember to keep your cards clean and simple!
************************************************** *****
I hope to see all CAS players make at least one card! I'm looking forward to seeing all the works of art. If you are not chosen this time, don't lose hope. There are always more seasons.
HAVE FUN!!!!
Edited to answer a great question:
Can I play in the challenges if I don't want to be on the DT? Yes, please play along! Just note in your comment section and here when linking your card that you're just playing for fun. Some of the DT and I will also be playing just for fun!
Sometimes people don't have the commitment during a particular season, or they feel they are not ready, and probably a few other reasons. And I respect the decisions people choose for themselves.

Thanks, Jen! It hadn't hit me that it was getting time for a new DT again. Time sure flies!

Oh, I can't wait to see all the wonderful CAS cards that will be posted! Our current DT has done such an excellent job of inspiring us all, and I bet lots of people will try out for the new team as a result!
Jen, thanks so much for choosing my cards for the sketch challenge. I'm so honored!:-D

I received a very good question which I will put in the original posting.
Can I play in the challenges if I don't want to be on the DT? Yes, please play along! Just note in your comment section and here when linking your card that you're just playing for fun. Some of the DT and I will also be playing just for fun!

OK, this was the best inspiration challenge yet. I combined the inspiration challenge with the wonderland challenge to make a Winter Wedding (or Anniversary) card. All the details including the inspiration sites are included with the card: CAS Winter Wedding or Anniversary by Happy2Stamp123 at Splitcoaststampers |

My cousin lives in Waterford, too, so Bronner's is always a must-visit.
