CAS02 - One Button Will Do!

CAS has become very popular and we're so excited! We even have a design team every season. Come check us out! This week we would like you to use one button on your card.

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.

Here's my 1st card for CAS02 - Checker Flower

Stamps: flower - DRS Designs
Colors: regal rose, pretty in pink, so saffron, bashful blue, certainly celery
Accessories: button MS butterfly punch, celery marker


Here's my second button card for the CAS challenge - You're Fabulous!

Stamps: It's Beautiful wheel, Absolutely Fabulous
Colors: riding hood red, black, white
Accessories: ribbon, button, stickles

This week's Featured Stamper: juliemlacey

* different Anya image
* same layout
* similar colors
* less layers

Here's Juliemlacey's adorable card.

Stamps: Teacher Anya - The Greeting Farm, sentiment - SU's Wonderful Words
Colors: bashful blue, creamy caramel, white
Accessories: Copic markers, ribbon, brads, dimensionals, DSP


This is a card I made quite awhile ago.

Featured Stamper: stampinat6213

* same stamp sets
* different colors. Used stamps instead of DSP
* used butterflies instead of flowers

Here's Nancy's beautiful card.

Nancy cased it from kricki.

Kricki cased it from Cris1467.

And I think It's been cased several more time. LOL! It's a GREAT card!

Stamps: Priceless, Hugs & Wishes, So Swirly Wheel
Colors: pale plum, perfect plum, white
Accessories: taffeta ribbon, dimensionals (on the top butterflies)

Stampendous has also had a new release, but I can't find the link. But my LSS helped me out with those. :)

Fun, fun, fun! Now I need to get well so I can start stamping some more.

The first CAS Challenge Design Team

First, I want to say thank you. I'm so happy that we've had so many challenge participants after only 2 CAS challenges (one being in the Limited Supply Challenge). There is so much talent on SCS that has been hidden!

It was very difficult to choose just 3 people. I hope that if you submitted cards for the DT call that you will do so again in May. If for some reason a DT member is unable to complete her term, I will choose a another designer from the first group who expressed interest. After all, you never know when you'll drop your only camera, burn your hand with a heat gun, punch a hole in your finger with a crop-o-dile, or go blind from too much glitter blown in your eye. All kidding aside, we never know when illness or accident may happen to a stamper or her family. So if I need a replacement, I'll look at the first group.


The first design team will be for the Spring Term 2009.



craftycaro (Carolina)

LateBlossom (Susan)

mudflapmamma (Angela)



Thank you ladies! I think this new idea for challenge design teams will be a positive one for the CAS style!

SCS has a new weekly challenge... 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.

The CAS challenges will be on Mondays. This 1st week's challenge was an inspiration challenge. When I go to Joann's for card making supplies, I always have to visit the fabrics. I cannot sew..... at all. (That's why I like faux stitching ) But I love the patterns and often get inspiration from them.

I had linked 2 patterns from Joann's Snuggle Fabric line. But you can choose any of the Snuggle fabrics for your inspiration. Just put a link to the pattern in your comments when uploading.

This is one of the 2 cards I made as samples.

Stamps: butterflies - Verve, Curvy Verses - SU
Colors: regal rose, white
Accessories: ticket corner punch, organdy ribbon, marker, dimensionals

And there is more!

I am looking for a Design Team to help me make samples for the challenges, help come up with new and creative ideas and step in and post the challenge if I'm out of town or sick... or something like that.

I'm looking for 3 people for a 3 month term. The first term will actually be a 3.5 month term because we're already well into February. So, the first 3 people will be on the team for the rest of February, March, April, and May.

Sometime in May, I will be looking for people for the next 3 month term.

Sound like fun? Then send me 3 of your best CAS cards to my email address by Friday, February 13 at midnight EST. I will let you know who the 1st 3 people are on Saturday. If you don't get chosen this time, don't worry... your turn will come.

My email address is

Remembering Grandpa

Today marks the 1st anniversary of the day my grandpa passed away. In the few days he had left, this card hung on the cabinet by the TV in his hospital room. Even though he was 88, he had always been there. He had overcome so many health problems and rebounded quickly. It was understandably hard on me to realize he wasn't coming home this time. I miss him very much.

All SU products were used.
Stamps: Fishy Friends, Crab & Company, Cheesecloth, Flower Filled
Colors: white, creamy caramel, soft sky, craft white, chocolate chip, certainly celery
Accessories: WW crayons, ribbon, markers

Well, I could tell you all about my computer problems for the last week... but that's boring. The more exciting thing is I have an early birthday present from my parents... a new laptop computer!!!!! I love it.... but I admit that I'm still trying figure it out. Mostly I've been transferring hard drive documents. I can't believe I've only made one card this week... whoa! Hopefully, I will change that soon! Here's the one card I made. I used the SCS sketch challenge.

CAS - Clean & Simple


I was really excited to be asked to hostess the SCS Limited Supply challenge today! I was racking my brain all week when it hit me this afternoon. This week I discovered a member's gallery that is just amazing. I found her on a thread she started in General Stamping. You can see it here. In Susan's 1st post she says:

"for those of us who don't do techniques that require anything like "talent" or "skill," who don't layer our cards into inch-thick confections of pure gorgeousness, who don't have all the latest nesties or copics, who don't have coloring skills above kindergarten level, and who do love to make clean and simple and, most of all, EASY cards...please post your favorites from your own gallery, the ones that make you happy"


Susan is talking about Clean An Simple cards, otherwise known as CAS.

Today, we are filling the SCS gallery with CAS cards! Need a little inspiration? Here's Susan's beautiful gallery.

Here are the deets on the card I made for the challenge.

Stamps: DRS Designs
Paper: white, black, riding hood red, ruby red
Ink: black
Accessories: riding hood red taffeta ribbon, Copic markers, Heart to Heart punch

OMG! What a day!


It's so good to be back online. I don't know how I lived before the internet... LOL!

The day started with the alarm not going off.... because it wasn't on. (Don't want to go there.) But my first thought was, maybe there's no school. We were supposed to get 3-6 inches of snow. No such luck. Roads were horrible and I would never want to be a bus driver on days like this. DH and I got our multiply impaired son ready in 1/2 an hour (This is the 5th time this year so we know that team effort works. LOL) BUT... the bus was very late. And when she got here, the driver was on the hood trying to fix her wipers. I felt so badly for her. My dad has a driving job and doesn't understand why the schools were open.

Anyway.... I ended up going back to bed. I haven't been feeling very well and lots of things have been stressing me out. But my counselor called and I was able to get out of bed, take my meds, and make this card. That's when the Boot Drive on my computer went POOF. I don't even know what a boot drive is. I thought I lost everything. I learned that my stuff was on the hard drive. I thought it was all one thing. But hubby fixed it and ran off to work. I finally uploaded this card with a new updated version of photo software.... and wow! What a difference in the quality. It doesn't just brighten, it drops shadows.... in the pinpointed area!! So something good came out of it. But nothing on my To Do list got done... that makes 3 days in a row. (Sigh).

Now that I've rambled on and bored you, what do you think of the card I made?

Here are the deets:

Stamps: Marshmallow Mug - Impression Obsession, In the Spotlight - SU
Paper: close to cocoa, creamy caramel, white, pretty in pink & bashful blue, DSP
Accessories: Copic markers, eyelets, ribbon, brads, snow blossom punch, paper piercer, cocoa marker, dimensionals
Techniques: faux stitching


Thanks so much for visiting!

A Weekend of Stamping

I had a fun filled relaxing weekend of stamping. It's nice to do that once in awhile (but it also means I have a lot of laundry to catch up on!) Here are my favorites from the group.

Tomorrow, I'm sending this first card to Julie, an SCS member, at DBU and entering in a drawing on Jen del Muro's blog. You can find the information here. Students at DBU come from 50 different countries! It's nice that they do a card ministry. I've sent cards to her before and I'm glad to be doing it again.

For SCS's Inspiration challenge, I used this Lang calendar.

I'm also entering this card in January's Wish RAK challenge #2. My wish is the bashful blue Nestie.

I made this for the LSC challenge. We had to use black as our base color so the colors would pop.

I used a new SAB set, that will be available next month, with a Bible verse from Verve.

Stamps: Beible verse - Verve, Botanical Blooms - Stampin' Up (SAB)
Paper: white, black, bashful blue bashfule blue DSP
Accessories: ribbon, paper piercing

SAB - Blast from the Past


Anyone remember the SAB stamp Big Blossom. It was the size of a BG stamp! I'm not sure it was very popular and even I sold mine on eBay. I couldn't get a good impression with ink. But I did save the card board template I made if I ever want to use it for patterned paper again.

Stamp: Big Blossom, Petal Pushers, Cheesecloth
Paper: chocolate chip, bashful blue, so saffron, Spring Showers DP
Ink: chocolate chip, bashful blue

Faux Embossing with Hearts and Stripes


For the Ways to Use It challenge, we needed to customize our designer paper. I chose to use the faux dry embossing technique. And I used my new Hundred Hearts set from Verve. I love this company... which is one of the reasons why I cut my SU order in half last night.


Stamps: Hundred Hearts - Verve
Paper: so saffron, chocolate chip, regal rose, very vanilla, Making Memories DP
Accessories: eyelet, ribbon, CM heart maker, chocolate chip marker, scallop edge punch


Faux dry embossing technique: choose a shape that can be punched. It can be flowers, circles, anything you like. Simply line them up on the patterned paper and glue! Easy peasy... usually. This is the first time I've tried it with stripes. A couple of my hearts are a little off. Now you're going to look for them, aren't you? LOL! (To get a better view, right click on the photo.)

Thank you, Dr. Ferguson


The silver ribbon is for mental health. The 3 different sizes of brads symbolizes how a person starts in treatment and they gradually get better until one day they have blossomed into the person they were meant to be.

This thank you card is for my family's psychiatrist. She has helped us through a difficult period in our lives revolving around events that started with me. I recently sat in a session with my son who has CP, depression, and high functioning autism... that's tough... or at least I thought. Wow! I was so amazed at how she was able to get him to talk. I'm in tears as I'm writing this. We were able to meet with his school team again with more specific information as to why he acted out as he did recently.

Stamps: Ribbon - Our Daily Bread, sentiment - SU
Paper: unknown speckled light gray, basic black, white
Accessories: diamond stickles, brads, paper piercer, white gel pen, CB birds & swirls (Wish RAK), and designer label, circle, and oval punches

SU's New Catalog Review & Should I Continue On? & Other Stuff!

My new Stampin' Up catalogs are here finally! I have no idea when SU finally got it up online. All I know is it was late. I took a nap because I was exhausted from not sleeping well. I was bummed about that because I had been doing so well with getting enough rest lately. But I'm off-topic. When I woke up.... my box of 8 catalogs were here! LOL!

I found out that I'm not in pending after all. Because of economic times and SAB being in February, we were given an unexpected, never before done, waiver for another quarter. I'm finally starting to feel better after my last meds adjustment and I'm excited about the news. This catalog is fab and it almost makes me want to try to make it a business. But I'm worried. I've always felt uncomfortable about asking people to come spend money... especially now. I love having workshops though. Teaching is what I love to do. But then there's the fact that other companies line of unmounted stamps are so apppealing. So..... now I'm not sure what to do with all these extra catalogs. LOL!

OK... Here's my review from my own personal style.

I must have and they will be on my 1st order:
  • Font of You
  • Totally Tool
  • Thoughts & Prayers
  • Cheep Talk
  • Curly Label Bundle (It finally sucked me in!)
  • Jumbo Brads
  • Refill cardstock supplies

These are on my Wish List:
  • Animal Crackers
  • A Kind Word
  • Special Blessings
  • Once Upon A time
  • Wonderful Favorites (It's always been on my wish list!)
  • Varsity Alphabet & Numbers
  • Starring You (Don't Know why I don't have it yet.)
  • Fleurettes
  • Button Latte
  • Bella Blossom (I was shocked to find this on the dormant list.)

I like these but probably wouldn't use them:
  • That's Funny (It's hilarious, but I probably would only use the cake on a card.)
  • Sweet Stems (I have sooo many flowers and my new hostess set, Itty Bitty Buds, will do.)
  • On Your Birthday (I have a lot of sentiments already.)
  • Corduroy Buttons (but they are cute!)
  • New striped ribbon - so saffron, pretty ink & old olive (I've discovered that I don't use the striped ribbon I already have.)

These products are just not for me:
  • Big Shot & accessories (only because of the price)
  • Rub-ons
  • chipboard
  • decor elements
I look forward to blog hopping to see if anyone else has their ideas of the new catty.
