I have trouble deciding which what do do with the background behind a simple stamp or die.
ReplyDeleteCAS is my favorite style, but occasionally I want to use some patterned paper, and that usually is the end of CAS! Thanks for the fun blog hop.
ReplyDeleteMy biggest struggle is not having the card feel like something is missing!
ReplyDeleteI think CAS is my go-to style, but I sometimes find it hard to mar a design by adding a sentiment. Great hop! I love all the inspiration along the way.
ReplyDeleteMy biggest struggle is keeping the background simple and knowing when to stop adding something extra. Thanks for this neat blog hop!
ReplyDeleteI love the CAS style for my cards! My biggest struggle is that I have a hard time deciding on what stamp or die to use!
ReplyDeleteEnjoying the hop!
Knowing when to say when!! thanks for the peeks into the designers' studios!

I'm so excited to see the designers' studios! Thanks for this hop! My biggest struggle with creating a CAS card is coming up with a design/layout that packs a punch but still has enough open space to be considered CAS.
ReplyDeleteKnowing when to stop! Thanks for the peek into everyone’s blogs.
ReplyDeleteI think my biggest CAS challenge is creating enough interest without overdoing it. CAS cards don’t all need to be one layer, but achieving the balance is the challenge!
ReplyDeleteI love CAS but often struggle not to add that little extra detail or layer. It is also interesting how different blog posts consider CAS. :)
ReplyDeleteMy biggest struggle is keeping it CAS. I make the card then realized it has too much.
ReplyDeleteI struggle with choosing color combinations.
ReplyDeleteI seem to always overdo it, and rarely have a CAS. Just knowing when to stop is may struggle.
ReplyDeleteMy biggest struggle is not doing a decorative edge! I just love a stitched or scalloped or doodled edge on all my cards!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the chance! What a fun hop!
I love the look of a CAS card. My struggle is limiting the layers on the card front.
ReplyDeleteMy struggle with CAS is my love of using printed paper. I have to remember that the plainer the better is the way to go.
ReplyDeleteMy biggest struggle to create CAS is all the stuff I have, and that I try to use. Most of the designer's studios are CAS. Not mine :(
ReplyDeleteI love a clean and simple design. I find myself wanting to add sequins or blings and need more restraint at times!
ReplyDeleteMy struggle is keeping it CAS. Sometimes it's hard for me to not add more, because I think it's lacking something.
ReplyDeleteLeaving the white space white!
ReplyDeleteMy biggest struggle is to decide whether my card is really CAS or not, should I add few or remove some !
ReplyDeleteClean is always a struggle. Seems it's difficult not to get a bit of ink in the wrong place, a smudge, a fingerprint. CAS rocks. HUgz
ReplyDeleteKeeping it clean. Knowing when to stop. CarolG
