We are excited to have Gerrina (Gerrina's creatieve wereld) joining us as our last Guest Designer for 2015.  Welcome Gerrina!!




Hi I am Gerrina and I live in Nuenen in the Neatherlands.
I have been a crafter since I was a little girl; just can’t sit still.  In 1999 I started with scrapbooking, bought a few stamps in 2000 to use with that, and that was it … I was totally hooked!
So now I am addicted to stamping. I love to participate in challenges and enjoy the contacts from all over the World that I got by stamping and blogging. I work in different styles and CAS is one of them that I really like. Sceneries, artsy, Mixed Media, ATC’s and Art Journal are other styles and things I like to do.
Currently I am at the design teams at Creafine, Time Out, Crealies Guest design team and the Chocolate Baroque Guest design team.  I am honoured to have been asked to be Guest Designer by the Addicted to CAS team!

Are you ready to be inspired? Let's go!

Challenge #75 - Spooky

Welcome back to Addicted to CAS. Perhaps it is your first time joining us. We are pleased to have you with us.

We have a great challenge for you this fortnight which has been chosen for you by the amazingly gifted Ceal.


Use our code word as inspiration but please remember to keep everything Clean and Simple!


We are lucky to have a regular support through


who is once again sponsoring our challenge.
The prize is 4 digis from the store for our CAS Perfectionist.


We are thrilled to have Joyce (Cards-by-the-Sea) as our Guest Designer for this challenge.  Welcome Joyce!!


I never really thought of myself as a creative person until I started stamping in the summer of 2010, when I had my youngest daughter's birthday party at Paper Source.  Once I discovered clear stamps and the on-line blogging community, I was hooked.  I am currently on the design teams at CASology, Happy Little Stampers Sketch Challenge, Tag You're It, Time Out and ColourQ, and I would describe my stamping style as mostly CAS, with a little bit of cute and some graphic thrown in for fun.  I like mixing stamps from all different stamp companies, and could not create without my dies and Big Shot machine.  I live in a small beach town in San Diego County with my husband, two teenage daughters and our dog.  I worked in the corporate world for many years before retiring to spend more time with my family.  My other interests include spinning, reading and hanging out with my family.


We have some impressive inspiration for you so let's get started!
