Two more months of winter. Yes, some of us are already counting the days until spring! With a warm drink in hand, we're watching the current season with wry amusement, yet acknowledging that it does have its perks: comfort foods and drinks. Who doesn't enjoy those?!
This week, we're going to think about the word DRINK and what it brings to mind! Maybe it's a particular drink or maybe it's something you associate with a drink! Whatever it is, we'd love to see your creative take on this week's cue word!
First, let's see what the design team and our guest designer, Heather, created for inspiration this week!

Using negative space is a great way to keep
your focal point from getting cluttered.
Dimension is a great way to add interest to a clean and simple card.
An otherwise colorless design is easily
embellished with a touch of glitter and a little dimension.
To keep a card with a large image CAS spotlight only a
portion of the image.
Using neutrals plus only one colour keeps your CAS design cohesive.
When your focal image is quite busy, lots of white space
and simple matting keep it CAS!

Look for alternate uses for your stamps - the thought cloud is actually part of a tree stamp.

ReplyDeletelove do you need to venti?! super cute! my first time on your blog - this is fantastic! i love the CAS philosophy - that's exactly how i want to make my cards (i'm in the very beginning stages). i hope i muster the courage enough to post on one of your challenges some day!
ReplyDeleteGreat inspiration from the DT! I think I need a drink of some kind!!
ReplyDeleteI love the examples and the other entries are also very nice. I'm still a beginner on CAS, so all this inspiration is great. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fabulous assortment of drinks in the entries and by you gals on the DT! Awesomeness!! And lots of different design layouts, too. I forget if you have set up a Pinboard for your challenges, at least the DT cards, so they are already pinned for us. I will go find out. Either way, thank you for the inspiration!!
