Addicted to CAS Challenge #156 - Ombre'

Hello there, CAS Addicts! It's time for a new challenge! Our Hostess is Barb, and she has chosen Ombre' as our code word!

Before we begin, let's review the rules for the challenge:

We have a very special Guest Designer for this challenge...Hannelie!

Hi, my name is Hannelie Bester, I am a South-African living in the United Arab Emirates (Abu Dhabi) for the last 10 years. We moved to this part of the world because of a job opportunity that was offered to my husband. I started blogging soon after we moved here... hence the title of my blog!

Living so far away from my loved ones, made me realize how much I love them. Card making helps me cope with being far away from home, and challenges my right brain, since I am a left-brained, logical and analytical pharmacist at heart!

Clean, simple and creative are words that would describe my style.

Barb (Hostess)

Vikki

Ceal

Stephanie

Raga

Susan

Now we turn it over to you to see your take on the code word! Have fun creating, and don't forget to keep it CAS!

Hi, my name is Beate, alias Stempelomi. I'm an over 50 mother of 3 children and 2 dogs and my recreation is stamping since 2005. At the moment I love clean and simple stamping. I'm working on 3 German Design Teams and I love to do that! I'm proud to be the Guest Designer for this challenge at ATCAS and I hope you will like my card!
Hugs, Beate R.

Beate's Card:

and our 2nd Guest Designer - Claire Winner of Challenge #153

I’m thrilled to be this week’s Guest Designer at Addicted to CAS. I’m originally from the UK but have called Australia home for the last 18 years. Playing with paper is my passion and I love being inspired by
all the wonderful challenges out there in blog land. Clean and simple challenges are a particular favorite - they’re so open to interpretation and it’s amazing to see how my fellow card makers have been inspired by a single
word or sketch to make something truly unique!
