CAS254 - It's snowing in the CAS gallery! (1/6/14)

[Miss Boo]

Happy New Year!

Thank you to everyone who has been playing along with the CAS challenges, especially last week. I'm honored by all the CASEs and I still need to comment. It's been a rough week and a half of not feeling good. And a HUGE thanks to all the CAS alumni for all your beautiful samples!

Please keep Denise in your thoughts and prayers. She has seen some improvement and continues to see doctors. If you have the time, send her a message of encouragement

I'll be sending out some invitations for guest designers for the rest of January.

If you're getting snow and cold air, keep those fingers warm while stamping.

***********************************************

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

~~~CAS WEEKLY CHALLENGE~~~


January 6

CAS254 - Use snowflakes on your CAS card: punches, die cuts, stamped, embellishments, etc...

KEYWORD: CAS254
It's also great to add the keyword: CAS so that you're in two galleries.

Let's leave some love for our DT alums who have made some amazing samples for us this week!

Here is my CAS254 card. I saw Janelle's card earlier in the gallery, so had fun making a quick and easy winter snowflake birthday card. Enjoy and Thanks Jen for hosting again.

Here is my snowflake card to honor Charlene (LilLuvsStampin) who passed away on January 2nd. She was a sweet, kind, loving person and I will miss her. This card is a case of hers and I will be sending it to her husband, Terry.

Thank you for looking.

after cruising the gallery and sitting in my house with -30 temps, I think I may try this challenge. Might as well jump on in, no school today or tomorrow and the house is clean, laundry is done, so I have time to get crafty!

Here's my snowflake card for today's challenge:

I've never really participated in a challenge before - and I love snowflakes - so here it goes :
my Snow Globe card

Very fun - I got to do two new things - I also used the Tim Holtz rosette die that I had to buy last year which has been sitting unloved ever since.

[genistamps]

Great challenge. Thanks for looking!

The last CAS card I uploaded was in October 2011. It is fair to say that I still find CAS the most challenging technique EVER. Here goes...

I just finished this set of cards yesterday for the Christmas card challenge when I spotted this challenge. I´m not very good at CAS but my New years resolution is to try it and also to make cards that only need flat rate postage.
