What will you come up with? The colour or perhaps something that makes you green with envy. Maybe St. Pat's day will inspire you. Green Eggs and Ham? Hmmm, we can't wait to see!

We have an amazing sponsor, once again

and our winner will receive 3 images of her choice from the store!

March is here, which means we are happy to introduce you to our newest Guest Designer - Birgit (Rapport fran ett skrivbord).  Welcome Birgit!

Hello all! My name is Birgit Edblom and I live in Sweden. I have three grown sons and two lovely grandchildren. When I'm not working as a teacher in Sociology and Psychology, I love to create with stamps, colors and paper! It's my way to relax and develop my creativity. I want to thank Loll and the team at ATCAS for inviting me to be guest designer this month. I feel honoured and delighted to join them.

Here we go with our inspiration -

 #44 Julie B

Congratulations, Julie! Here is what Harriet had to say about your card

I chose Julie's card for several reasons: the masking is perfectly done, the coloring of the flowers is outstanding and gives so much depth to the images and the background stamping is balanced and not in a particular shape - but free flowing.

Julie, grab your badge from the tab at the top of the page and email me at kyliepurtell@gmail.com within 5 days to claim your prize.

As it's the start of a new month, which means we are happy to introduce you to our wonderful Guest Designer for February.  Welcome Ellen Parker (In a World of Craft).

Wow! What an honor to be asked to Guest Design for ATCAS this month! My card making became a passion once I retired and had time to really focus on it. I have learned tons from all of the friends I have made on-line! 

For a while, I didn't know what CAS was. It took me while to understand the concept and was definitely not a style that came naturally to me! When I saw how stunning CAS designs could be, I was hooked! I started studying design concepts and following some amazing CAS card makers and of course playing at ATCAS! 

I am so happy to be sharing this time with you this month! I can't wait to see everyone's creativity at work!

ok! onto our inspiration

#12 Janet

Congratulations, Janet!! Here is what Jaydee had to say about your card -

Janet's card showcases how a card can have so much interest and yet still be CAS.  The colors all work together beautifully.  The vertical details lead the eye up to the top of the card and the pop of blue behind the cut-out makes sure that your eye gets to land exactly where it should - on the focal point.  The stitched circle echoes the pattern on the circular element.  Beautifully composed and executed card.

Janet please grab your badge from the tab at the top of the page and email me at kyliepurtell@gmail.com within 5 days to claim your prize.
