Week 30: FAIRYTALE

Is Valentine's Day really next week already?!  That means there is only a little time left to finish up those cards and gifts you've been thinking about making!  Why not get in the valentine spirit by thinking about...


A frog?  A prince?  A princess?  A white horse?  A little magic?  A little love?  What does this word bring to your imaginative mind?  This cue word is sure to bring some smiles to our faces!

The design team and this week's guest designer, Darnell, have provided some wonderful inspiration for you!


Guest Designer:  Darnell

Using small images can tell a big story and keep your card CAS.

A limited colour palette can put the simple in a clean and simple card.

A simple banner strip dresses things up while keeping the focus on the message.


Rosemary

Don't be afraid to use a bold color.... just remember to use it in small amounts to keep the design clean & simple.


Tracey

Don't be afraid to use patterned papers, but watch adding clutter to keep your card CAS.


Ardyth

Simple shapes, high contrast and small pops of colour make CAS fun!


Jen
design defined:
Layering white on white adds interest while keeping things CAS.


Judy

A dry-embossed frame can add interest to large areas of white space on your CAS card.


Maureen

Using a tone on tone mat is a nice way to add interest to a CAS card.


Now go have fun and don't forget to link up your FAIRYTALE creation by Sunday at 4 p.m. (CST)!
