Addicted to CAS Challenge #144 - Apples


Hello there, CAS Addicts! It's time for a new challenge! Our Hostess is Anja, and she has chosen 'Apples' for our code word!
Before we begin, let's review the rules for the challenge:


Don't forget, as always, Happy Little Stampers (HLS) is our Sponsor, and Kylie is generously awarding the winner with a $20.00 GC to the store!

  Happy Little Stampers was created in 2015 by Kylie (owner of ATSM and ATCAS). Kylie wanted to bring out a line of stamps that were useful for every day crafters. From cute to whimsical images, from every day to funky sentiments there is something for everyone!

We have a super talented Guest Designer for this challenge! You may know her as Sweet Kobylkin or as the winner of our recent 'Masculine' Challenge...her name is Ksenija.


I started making cards in 2010. At the beginning, it was a hobby to channel my creativity, but today it means much more to me. I am active on Instagram and Facebook, where I am a.k.a. @sweetkobylkin, and have been designing for many international challenge blogs and brands. Over the years I have met so many talented designers from all over the world. I am happy that years ago I have discovered card making and found a passionate, sharing and supportive community of people.


Clean and Simple is my favourite style. My cards may seem very simple by design, but every card starts with a few sketches and careful positioning of all elements. I often use the Golden Section rule to make my cards. Although I enjoy Clean and Simple style cards, I do not like “empty” cards. On my blog, I give tips and hints on working with different layouts and techniques to avoid this emptiness impression and keep a card CAS.

Hi!

My name is Åsa Johansson and I come from Sweden. I live here with my family and I work as a teacher. Cardmaking and scrapbooking have been my hobbies since 2007 when I was pregnant with my twin girls. The life turned up side down when the girls came and there wasn´t much time for hobbies. I see 2012 as my real starting poing. I love this world of paper, stamps, dies etc..... If I should try to describe my style it must be CAS. I love clean and simple cards and I love the CAS graphic style as well. I´m so happy to be here at Addicted to CAS as a guest designer. I hope you like my inspiration card. I so excited to see what you´ll create!

Hugs Åsa


Bobby (Hostess)

Addicted to CAS Challenge #142 - Masculine


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

We have a super talented Guest Designer for this challenge...Hannelie!

Hi, my name is Hannelie Bester, I am 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! 

Graphic, bold and creative are words I come across when people describe my style. So happy to join the Addicted to CAS team as guest designer this fortnight!

Addicted to CAS Challenge #141 - Summertime

Hi I am Gerrina.

Most of you know me from My Blog. I live in a small town near Eindhoven in the Netherlands.

You can easily say I am a stamp-addict now, but I never would have dreamed I would be after buying just some text-stamps to use in my photo albums in 2011... So I started stamping in the summer of 2011. I love to learn new techniques and how to work with new materials. The CAS-style is one of my favourite ones, but I also like to get messy in my Art Journals and I still like to scrap in my photo albums and planners and like to make books and Mixed Media canvasses. The only condition is that I have to work with stamps and/or stencils...

Playing with colours and paper is a perfect way for me to get my head clear from all daily things and from all the ideas that I get by looking at a stamp or stencil or the beautiful projects shown by all of you in blogland...

Here is my card for the code word Summertime:


OK, now let's see the DT's take on 'Summertime'
