CAS41: Vera Bradley Inspiration (11-16-09)
Just in case you missed it.....You will find an exciting ANNOUNCEMENT here!
************************************************** *******
What is CAS?
CAS is an acronym for Clean and Simple.
There are different ways people view CAS. It is very subjective. There is no list of rules that will fit everyone’s personal definition. The following are possible guidelines, only. Please do not feel afraid of playing in the CAS challenge or debate with yourself if you’ve created a CAS card. If it is a CAS card to you, put CAS in the keyword box.
1. Clean: the design is uncluttered with lots of white or open space. Simple: having a clear focal point without a lot going on to detract from it.
OR
2. simple in design regardless of the number of embellishments or how long it takes to color, stitch or to use a special technique
OR
3. can be copied and mass produced fairly quickly… usually without a lot of coloring, layers, embellishments, tools and/or techniques
OR
4. any combination of the above
************************************************** *******
This week we are having an inspiration challenge. Have fun looking at
handbags & purses from Vera Bradley
Keyword: CAS41
DT samples to help you get started with ideas:
Jen's Card
Patty's Card
Ryann's Card
Boo's Card
CAS41 Gallery
Uploading:Remember the keyword is without spaces. Use a comma between keywords with a space after each comma.
If you are new to the challenges, please feel free to do this one or ANY of the challenges at any time. There is no time limit. They are not races to see who can do one first, nor are they contests of any sort. All the challenges are simply to provide inspiration and to get us stamping!

I love Vera Bradley stuff!! I noticed that she has made some note pads and things like that but has anyone seen any Designer scrapbooking paper yet by her? I would think it would be a hit!
Great challenge Jen! I hope to play along this week!
