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.
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. :mrgreen:

Oh what an interesting site to get inspiration. At first I thought, no way. But after "really" looking, things started popping in my brain. Good challenge for sure!!!
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: CAS06 Pink Butterfly by Wendy G at Splitcoaststampers
Thanks for the great inspiration challenge, Jen! Lots of cute things on the Robeez site. Here is my card: TLC212 CAS06 Robeez Inspired by cmsuto at Splitcoaststampers
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.
